INSTALLING THE UNIT

BEFORE USING YOUR ICE MAKER
Check to be sure you have all the following parts:

  • 1 Ice Scoop
  • 1 User Manual

PLUMBING AND ELECTRICAL TIPS

  • A licensed plumber must install this appliance.
  • This appliance must be installed with all electrical and water connections in accordance with state and local codes.
  • This unit requires a standard electrical supply properly grounded in accordance with National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances.
  • The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes for 115V.
  • The manufacturer recommends that you provide a separate circuit that services only your appliance. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
  • Plug the appliance into a grounded three-prong outlet. Do not remove the grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do not use an extension cord.
  • Do not kink, pinch, or damage the power supply cord between the ice machine and wall or cabinet.
  • Before connecting the ice machine to the power source,let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. Following this step will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system brought on by handling during transportation.
  • Make sure to install on level surface and ensure drain line and waterline are not kinked.

TIPS ON MOVING AND SETTING UP THE UNIT

  • Use two or more people to move and install the appliance. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
  • Remove the packing materials and clean the appliance before using it.

WATER SUPPLY TIPS

  • Check for leaks after connecting the water line.
  • The ice machine requires a continuous water supply with a minimum pressure of 20 psi (0.138 MPa) and a static pressure not to exceed 80 psi (0.55 MPa).
  • The manufacturer recommends filtering the water. A water filter helps remove taste, odors and particles. Using softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. Avoid using deionized water.
  • Using a RO system may cause the water pressure to be lower than the minimum the ice machine requires.
  • Ensure that the water supply hose is not pinched, kinked, or damaged during installation.

RECESSED INSTALLATION
A built-in installation will allow you to install the ice machine under a counter or in a kitchen cabinet if you respect the required clearance space around the clear ice machine. The appliance must be located to allow clearance for water, drain and electrical connections in the rear of the unit.
RECESSED INSTALLATION

BUILT-IN CABINET DIMENSIONS
A built-in installation requires for a water line and plug clearance for proper operation. A built-in unit is designed for zero clearance at the top and each side of the unit. The unit uses fan-forced condenser cooling, which requires air circulation through the lower section of the unit. To ensure proper service access and ventilation, the unit should not have the grill openings covered. There are no additional requirements for venting at the top, side, or rear of the unit.
NOTICE

  • Ensure that the air path for the grill remains unrestricted. Any restriction of flair flow through the grill will disrupt normal operation of the unit, resulting in damage to components, and voids warranty.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Always disconnect power at the source before working on the unit. Failure to unplug the clear ice machine could result in electrical shock or personal injury.
  • Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet.
  • Never unplug the unit by pulling on the cord. Grasp the plug and pull out firmly.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY

  1. Turn off the main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line of water.
  2. Locate a 1/2" to 3/4" vertical cold-water pipe near the installation location. The distance should be less than 9 feet.
  3. Install a shut-off valve to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a plain piece of copper tubing, attach a 1/4" O.D. compression union to the tubing and remove the nut.
  4. Thread the nuts of the supplied water supply hose to the tap and water inlet valve. Access to the water inlet valve is through the opening in the rear panel. Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half turn with a wrench.
  5. Turn on the main water supply and tap. Check for leaks in the water supply connection. Tighten all connections.

ELECTRICALCONNECTION
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For personal safety, you must properly ground this appliance. The power cord of this appliance features a three-prong grounding plug that mates with a standard three-prong grounding wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the appliance. Have a qualified electrician check the wall outlet and circuit to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. It is your responsibility and obligation to have a standard two-prong wall outlet replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet.
Always plug the appliance into its own individual electrical outlet. The voltage rating of the outlet must match the rating label on the appliance. This match provides the best performance and prevents overloading the electrical circuits, which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. Never unplug your appliance by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.
When moving the appliance, take care not to damage the power cord.
If the power supply cord suffers damage, have the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons replace the supply cord to avoid a hazard.

AVOIDING USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, the manufacturer strongly recommends that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance.

DRAIN PUMP TEST

Electrical Shock Hazard
Be sure the floor surfaces surrounding the appliance are dry before plugging in and removing the power cord to the outlet to prevent electrical shock.

Follow these steps to test the operation of the drain pump before final installation:

  1. Check the power cord and make sure it is not plugged into the outlet.
  2. Place the drain hose into a suitable container that can hold at least one gallon of water.
  3. Pour one gallon of water into the ice storage bin.
  4. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded, polarized electrical outlet.
  5. The drain pump should start and pump the water from storage bin into the container. Continue until bin empties.
  6. If water does not drain check power supply, confirm nothing is blocking water from drain.
  7. Once water empties unplug the power cord and complete installation

CONNECTING DRAIN
Drain Line is attached to the unit and installed at the factory.
With Factory installed drain pump proper connection to drain is required.
It is recommended that a proper drain system include an air gap to prevent siphoning and a sanitary trap (Check local codes to determine drain requirements).
Improper drain can lead to malfunctions in the ice production and void warranty.
Licensed Plumbers can assist in identifying proper drain hook up.

Check Your Local Codes on Proper Drain Hook Up
Using a licensed Plumber to install Ice Machine will confirm it is installed to a proper drain system.

OPERATING THE UNIT


ENSURING ICE FRESHNESS AND QUALITY

  • Although the unit has been tested and cleaned at the factory, discard the first batch of ice cubes due to long-term transit and storage.
  • If you do not use the ice machine regularly, the manufacturer recommends emptying the ice bin periodically to ensure ice freshness.
  • The ice machine produces ice in layers resulting in a clear cube. The ice may appear wet when first produced. Ice in the bin may develop surface frost which appears when the cube in placed in liquid.

OTHER OPERATING TIPS

  • Keep the air intake and exhaust free of dust and lint to allow free air flow. With hard water, cleaning may have to be more frequent.
  • Never touch the evaporator when the unit is running.
  • Keep the door closed to reduce ice melting and to promote proper ice formation. Open the door only when taking ice from the appliance.
  • Turn on the water supply tap before switching on the ice machine. Never turn the water supply tap off when the ice machine is working.

ICE MACHINE PRODUCTION
Square Cube ice machine SSIM153SSPR or SSIM153SSPRADA produces Ice in a slab with 40 ice cubes all connected by an ice bridge. The ice bridge will break apart when falling into the bin but may require contact with the ice scoop to separate to single or small groups of cubes. The ice machine will continue to produce ice until ice in the bin reaches the discharge for the slab ice; not allowing the harvested ice to enter the bin. Once the ice level drops in the bin the slab will fall and the ice machine will continue to produce ice.

EXPECTING NORMAL SOUNDS
Your new ice machine may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Hard surfaces like the floor and walls can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and the source of those sounds:

  • The high-efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
  • Water running from the evaporator to the water reservoir may make a splashing sound.
  • As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your ice machine.
  • Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant, the water line or Items store on top of the machine.
  • You may hear the sound of the condenser fan forcing air over the condenser.
  • During the harvest cycle, you may hear the sound of ice cubes falling into the ice bin.

PANEL DISPLAY NOTIFICATION
Below notifications will sound the alarm except the Ice full stop.

Self-diagnosis Pass Only displays on the beginning of the working cycle.
Filling Water
Ice Full Stop If the ice storage bin is full, the unit will automatically stop. Remove the ice and the unit will start making ice after 3 minutes.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING AND MAINTAINING THE UNIT
Perform periodic cleaning and proper maintenance to ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed in this manual are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets or if you have other special considerations.

  • Periodically vacuum dust and dirt from the condenser, which is located behind the grill at thebottom front of the unit.
  • Regularly inspect plumbing connections to ensure that no leaks exist.
  • Disconnect the water supply line if the ice machine will not be used for a long period of time.
  • Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is not ice. Objects such as wine and beer bottles arenot sanitary and could damage the interior.

CLEANING THE UNIT'S EXTERIOR
Clean the door and cabinet with a mild detergent and warm-water solution, such as 1oz. (28 g) of dish-washing liquid mixed with 2 gallons of warm water. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse the unit with clean water. Wipe the unit with a soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting.
Clean stainless steel with a mild detergent, a warm-water solution, and a damp cloth. Never use an abrasive cleaning agent.

RUNNING THE CLEANING CYCLE
Minerals that are removed from the water during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard, scaly deposit in the water system and cleaning the system regularly helps remove the mineral scale buildup. How often to clean the system depends upon how hard your water is or how effective a water filtration system may be. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal, you may need to clean the system more often. Normal timing will range from 3 to 12 months depending on water, use and environment.

STEPS TO RUN ICE MACHINE CLEAN CYCLE

  1. Turn off ice machine - press power on/off button
  2. Remove Ice from bin & evaporator
    1. Wait for ice to melt off evaporator, leave the door open ( approximately 30 to 60 Minutes)
