Ice

ICE MAKER OPERATION

When the ice bucket is full, the ice making mechanism will shut off. However, the refrigeration system will continue to cool and maintain the ice supply.

NOTICE

Do not place cans or bottles in the ice compartment because they will freeze.

OFF ON

To turn off ice production: Raise the bin arm into an upright and locked position. The unit will preserve temperature for ice storage.

NOTICE

If not intending to use the ice maker, turn the water supply valve off. It is also important to raise the bin arm of the ice maker (see above). Failure to raise the bin arm may result in damage to the water valve.

Certain sounds are normal during the unit's operation. You may hear the compressor or fan motor, the water valve, or ice dropping into the ice bucket.

U-Line CO1224F - NOTICE - 1

CAUTION

NEVER use an ice pick, knife or other sharp instrument to separate cubes. Shake the ice bucket instead.

During periods of limited use or high ambient temperatures, it is common for cubes to fuse together. Gently shake the bucket to break apart cubes. If not using the ice maker regularly, empty the ice bucket periodically to ensure fresh cubes.

It is normal for cubes to appear cloudy. The cause is air trapped in the water because of fast freezing. It is not caused by the health, taste or chemical make up of the water. It is the same air that is in every glass of water you drink.

Remove the ice bucket for emptying and cleaning. To remove the ice bucket, raise the bin arm and remove the bucket from the ice compartment. Use the ice bucket for ice storage only.

Cleaning

EXTERIOR CLEANING

Vinyl Clad (Black or White)

Clean surfaces with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting.

Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass cleaner.

Stainless Models

Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor when exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or cleaners with bleach.

Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner and polish monthly. For best results use Claire® Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner. Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will remove surface contamination that could lead to rust. Some installations may require cleaning weekly.

Do not clean with steel wool pads.

Do not use stainless steel cleaners polishes on any glass surfaces.

Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass cleaner.

Do not use cleaners not specifically intended for stainless steel on stainless surfaces (this includes glass, tile and counter cleaners).

If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it quickly with Bon-Ami® or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser® and a nonabrasive cloth. Always clean with the grain. Always finish with Claire® Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or comparable product to prevent further problems.

Using abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite™ will cause the graining in the stainless steel to become blurred.

Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of the rust may not be possible.

Integrated Models

To clean integrated panels, use household cleaner per the cabinet manufacturer's recommendation.

INTERIOR CLEANING

Disconnect power to the unit.

Clean the interior and all removed components using a mild nonabrasive detergent and warm water solution applied with a soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.

Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and clean water.

Do not use any solvent-based or abrasive

cleaners. These types of cleaners may transfer taste to the interior products and damage or discolor the interior.

DEFROSTING

Under normal conditions this unit does not require manual defrosting. Minor frost on the rear wall or visible through the evaporator plate vents is normal and will melt during each off cycle.

If there is excessive build-up of 1/4" (6 mm) or more, manually defrost the unit.

Ensure the door is closing and sealing properly.

SAFETY • INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION • OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS • MAINTENANCE • SERVICE

High ambient temperature and excessive humidity can also produce frost.

Troubleshooting - Extended

SPECIFIC ERRORS AND ISSUES

The technically advanced diagnostic capabilities of the electronic controls utilized on the 1200 and 2200 series units allows for easy and thorough troubleshooting.

Navigation of the control is the key and is explained in the CONTROL OPERATION section of the manual, along with control button layout, control function descriptions, a service mode menu and service menu selection explanations.

Verification of temperature and thermistor performance can be identified by directly viewing thermistor readings in the service mode.

Component failure issues can be identified through service mode menu #19, "Component Testing." Individual components can be switched on and off to check for both proper function of a specific component and also delivery of supply voltage to the components through the relays and DC outputs located on the relay/power board.

MAIN CONTROL

The main control board is very robust and is rarely the cause of system issues. It is important to fully diagnose the board for any suspected failures before attempting to remove the board for replacement or service. Follow the guidelines below to fully test and diagnose the main control.

Power Fault

If the unit does not (or seems to not) power on, follow the flow chart below to help diagnose the issue. Before beginning it is important to first verify the unit is not simply set to sabbath mode.

Testing The Main Control

If the main control is suspected of being faulty, the following procedure should be performed to verify main control for functionality.

Relay & DC Outputs

One of the primary functions of the main control is to operate the multiple relay and DC outputs during each cycle. Verify proper operation of these relays using the following procedure.

  1. Enter "Relay Toggle" through the service menu.

NOTICE

Frequently toggling the compressor relay could force the compressor into overload. The compressor will automatically deactivate during an overload and will remain deactivated until the overload switch cools. This could take some time. It is important to allow the compressor at least 5 minutes off time between relay cycles.

  1. Toggle the relay. Its related component should activate / deactivate with the switching of the relay. If it does not, test component.

Other Suspected Main Control Faults

If other components have been ruled out as being faulty but the unit continues to have operating issues, it is most likely due to a configuration error. Configuration errors can be cleared by restoring the unit to its factory default setting. Factory defaults may be restored through the service menu.

U-Line CO1224F - Other Suspected Main Control Faults - 1

CAUTION

Precautions must be taken while working with live electrical equipment. Be sure to follow proper safety procedures while performing tests on live systems.

THERMISTORS

Thermistors are used for various temperature readings. Thermistors provide reliable temperature readings using a resistance which varies based on surrounding temperatures. If a faulty thermistor is suspected it may be tested using an accurate ohmmeter. In an ice water bath (32°F) resistance should measure 16.1 kilohms.

5K OHMS @ 77°

16.1K OHMS - 32°F ambient

SAFETY • INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION • OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS • MAINTENANCE • SERVICE

THERMISTOR FAILURE

Zone Thermistor

If the zone thermistor fails, the unit will continue to operate in a timed limp mode for 10 minutes on and 45 minutes off. The unit will otherwise operate normally. The error will be displayed in the error log.

Evaporator Thermistor

If the evaporator thermistor fails, the unit will rely on a preset defrost time during defrost cycles. The unit will otherwise operate normally. Evaporator thermistor errors will be displayed in the error log.

Always assure that all thermistor connections are clean and dry. Whenever opening a thermistor connection be sure to apply a fresh dab of die electric grease.

REED SWITCH

A reed switch is used to monitor door state. When the door is closed magnetic force pulls the reed to its contact and closes the circuit which turns the light and display off. When the door is open the reed pulls away from the contact and opens the circuit. If the door is left open for longer than 5 minutes, the switch will trigger an error code and set an audible warning.

DOOR ALERT NOTIFICATION

When the door is left open for more than 5 minutes:

  • An audible tone will sound for several seconds every minute.
    • "dr" will appear in display.

Close door to silence alert and reset.

VIEWING ACTUAL TEMPERATURE

In viewing temperature in these modes any offsets are taken into account. This means that if you place a thermistor in a known temperature, let's say ice water, it may not read the 32°F that you would assume. If the control offset was preset at -3°F while you placed the thermistor in an icebath, the actual thermistor reading when viewing actual temperature would read 35°F. In the unit this would cause the cabinet to push itself 3° cooler. To view pure thermistor readings you must go into the service menu and choose the correct option.

To view the thermistor temperature, push and release the up and down keys. The display will show the corrected refrigerator temperature.

SHOWROOM MODE

This mode is designed to show units in a display environment. When in this mode the only functions will be the control and cabinet lights. The compressor, fans, etc. will not operate. To enter/exit this mode hold the light key and the power key for 5 seconds. The display will flash once and beep and the degree symbol will begin to flash.

When the degree symbol is flashing the unit will allow the use of the control for demonstrations. The unit can be left in this mode indefinitely.

SERVICE MODE

This mode has options available for service diagnostics. To enter the mode hold the hidden key for 10 seconds. The display will show "0." When in this mode use the up and down arrows to select the desired option. The LIGHT key is the ENTER key and will initiate the function. If changing a setting, you must press the LIGHT key again to retain the changed setting. To exit the service mode scroll to option "0" and press the LIGHT key. After five minutes of not touching any keys the mode will also exit automatically.

Thermistors

Thermistors are used for various temperature readings. Thermistors provide reliable temperature readings using a resistance which varies based on surrounding temperatures. If a faulty thermistor is suspected it may be tested using an accurate ohmmeter.

Both thermistors in the unit are identical. If a thermistor is suspected of being defective, the resistance can be verified. Place the thermistor in an ice water bath, the resistance should read 16.1k OHMs +/-5% on your meter.

Thermistor connections must be kept clean. A thermistor connection that has become corroded can cause resistance values from the thermistor to change as they pass through a dirty connection to the board.

It is for that reason that we apply dielectric grease to all of our thermistor connections. Dielectric grease will help to keep thermistor connections clean and dry.

If you change a thermistor in the unit please re-apply dielectric grease to the connection. If you encounter a dirty thermistor connection, you should replace the thermistor and the thermistor harness.

Thermistor error information can be found in the Control Operations - Service section.

This unit has three thermistors.

Thermistor one (Zone):

Located along the right hand side wall. It is used to maintain the operating temperature within that zone.

Thermistor two (Evaporator):

Located on the evaporator. It is used for defrost.

Thermistor three (Ice Maker):

Located in the ice maker. It is used to initiate the harvest mode.

THERMISTOR FAILURE

Zone Thermistor

If the zone thermistor in the unit fails, the unit will continue to cool in a backup mode (Self Preservation Mode) to preserve the integrity of the contents. The unit will otherwise operate normally.

1000 Series Self Preservation Mode:

The unit will cycle on for 10 minutes then off for 40 minutes.

Evaporator Thermistor

If the evaporator thermistor fails, the unit will rely on a preset defrost timer during defrost cycles. The unit will otherwise operate normally. Refer to defrost section.

Ice Maker Thermistor

If the ice maker thermistor fails, the ice maker will not operate. The associated error will be documented in the service mode, "Error Log."
