Normal Sounds
Your new ice maker may make sounds that are unfamiliar to you. Most of the new sounds are
normal. Hard surfaces like the floor and walls can amplify the sounds. The following describes
the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be causing them.
•
Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line. Items stored on
top of the ice maker can also make noises.
•
The high-efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
•
Running water may make a splashing sound.
•
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.
•
During the harvest cycle, you may hear the sound of ice cubes falling into the ice storage bin.
Preparing the Ice Maker for Long Storage
If the ice maker will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to another place, it will be
necessary to drain the system of water.
1. Shut off the water supply at the main water source.
2. Disconnect the water supply line from the water inlet.
3. Shut off the electric supply at main electrical power source.
4. Take out the ice storage bin to remove remaining ice and water. Dry it.
5. Connect the drain hose to drain out water completely, then plug up the drain outlet after
finishing.
6. Pull off the drainage tube of the water trough to drain off all water.
7. Leave the door open to allow for circulation and to prevent mold and mildew.
8. Leave water supply line and power cord disconnected until ready to reuse.
IMPORTANT:
•
Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet.
•
Never unplug the unit by pulling on the plug.
