Operating Instructions
Icemaker
How your
icemaker
works
When you first start your icemaker, the water
reservoir will fill and the system will rinse itself
before starting to make ice. The rinsing process
takes about five minutes.
2. When the desired thickness is reached, the ice
sheet is released and slides onto a cutter grid.
The grid divides the sheet into individual
cubes.
Under normal operating conditions, the
icemaker will cycle at preset temperatures. The
ice level sensor located in the ice storage bin will
monitor the ice levels.
IMPORTANT
, If the water supply to the icemaker is turned
off, be sure to set the icemaker control to
OFF. Drain the water reservoir and leave
the icemaker door open to allow it to dry
completely.
. Every time the icemaker is turned off, you
MUST clean the icemaker sgstem with Nickel
Safe Ice Machine Cleaner. See Care and
Cleaning--lcemaker system section for
instructions.
.The icemaker is designed to make clear ice
from the majority of water sources on a daily
basis. If your results are unsatisfactory, your
water mag need to be filtered or treated.
Making Ice
1. Water is constantly circulated over a freezing
3. The water containing the rejected minerals
is drained after each freezing cycle.
4. Fresh water enters the machine for the next
ice making cycle.
5. Cubes fall into the storage bin. When the bin
is full, the icemaker shuts off automatically
and restarts when more ice is needed. The ice
bin is not refrigerated and some melting will
occur. The amount of melting varies with
room temperature.
plate. As the water freezes into ice, the _
minerals in the water are rejected. This
produces a clear sheet of ice with a low
mineral content.
NOTE:As the room and water temperatures
vary, so will the amount of ice produced and
stored. This means that higher operating
temperatures result in reduced ice production.
