Note to Customer This merchandise was carefully packed and thoroughly inspected before leaving our plant. Responsibility for its safe delivery was assumed by the retailer upon acceptance of the shipment. Claims for loss or damage sustained in transit must be made to the retailer. DO NOT RETURN DAMAGED MERCHANDISE TO THE MANUFAC- TURER - FILE THE CLAIM WITH THE RETAILER. If the unit was shipped or has been laying on its back for any period of me allow the ice machine to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the ice machine in immediately may cause damage to internal parts. Warranty Registraon It is important you send in your warranty registraon card im- mediately aer taking delivery of your ice machine. The following informaon will be required when registering your unit. Model Number Serial Number Date of Purchase Dealer’s name and address The model number and serial number can be found on the serial plate which is located on the boom face inside the cabinet. See gure 1. Figure 1 Help Prevent Tragedies Child entrapment and suocaon are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are sll dangerous - even if they sit out for “just a few days”. If you are geng rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instrucons below to help prevent accidents. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:

• Take o the doors or remove the drawers.

• Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside. 3Select Locaon The proper locaon will ensure peak performance of your ap- pliance. We recommend a locaon where the unit will be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To assure your product performs to specicaons the recommended installaon locaon temperature range is from 65 to 90°F (18 to 32°C). Outdoor Installaon Only the 25OiM model is suitable for outdoor installaons. Building codes may require a ground fault circuit interrupter electrical receptacle to supply electrical power to the refrigerator for outdoor applicaons, (see “Electrical Connecon” secon). Do not install in a locaon where the unit will be exposed to direct sun exposure as this may result in unsasfactory perfor- mance. Winterizing your Outdoor Ice Maker In colder climates the ice maker will need to be winterized. The water ll valve needs to be disconnected from the water supply line. The water ll line from the boom of the water ll valve will also need to be disconnected and drained. With the ll valve disconnected and the ll line drained, leave the ice maker running and allow the unit to dump one last me to remove any ice from the trays. If the unit is to be sing for a prolonged period of me not run- ning, it is advisable to dry out the tray with paper towels. Front Grille Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the front grille allow air to ow through the condenser heat exchanger. Restricons to this air ow will result in increased energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason it is important this area to not be obstructed and the grille openings kept clean. AGA MARVEL does not recommend the use of custom made grilles as air ow may be restricted because of inadequate open- ings. (See Figure 2). Front Grille, keep this area open. Rear Leveling legs Figure 2 Front Leveling Legs Cabinet Clearance Venlaon is required from the boom front secon of the unit. Keep this area open and clear of any obstrucons. Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around the unit as long as the front grille remains unobstructed.

• Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the ice ma- chine! Doing so may cause an electrical shock, which may result in severe injury or death.

• This unit should not, under any circumstances, be installed to an un-grounded electrical supply. Electrical Connecon

Electrical Extension cords should not be used. They can be hazard- ous and cause decient operaon. The wall receptacle should be located near the product and be a polarized type with adequate ground protecon. The product must be installed to your local building codes and ordinances.

INSTALLING THE WATER SUPPLY

6NOTE Turning on the ice machine Aer connecng the water supply, and seng your ice machine in place plug the power cord into the wall receptacle. Then place the switch located in the grille (see Figure 7) to the “ON” posion. The temperature control is factory preset, allow the ice maker to run for 24 hours so the interior temperature will sta- bilize. If you wish to adjust the interior temperature use a small bladed screwdriver pushed through the right hand side of the grille to turn the temperature control sha. Turning it clockwise will make the unit colder. Turning it counterclockwise will make it warmer. Turning it counterclockwise unl it stops will shut o the compressor and fan motor. Should you turn o your control, allow at least ve (5) minutes before restarng in order to give the motor control me to auto- macally reset so that it can restart the motor. Electrical power to your unit is controlled by the “ON/OFF” rocker switch located in the front grille. (See Figure 7). “ON/OFF” Rocker Switch in front grille Figure 7 Temperature control located behind right side of air in- take -exhaust grille. Ice maker operaon

• The unit must be installed level for proper ice maker opera- on.

• The shuto arm wire must be down in its lowest posion for the ice maker to operate.

• When the freezer secon and ice maker unit has suciently cooled, the ice maker will harvest ice cubes automacally.

• When the ice bucket is full, the ice maker will automacally shut o.

• You may manually stop the ice maker by raising the shut o arm to the locking posion at the up most posion. Arm down, ice maker will operate Arm up, stops operaon Figure 8 Cover pulls o Water adjustment screw behind cover on side of housing When operaon of the appliance is to be disconnued for any length of me, the ice cube cavity in the ice maker should be emped and dried. The water supply and power supply should also be shut o and the ice bucket should be emped and cleaned. If the ice is not used regularly, it will clump together with me. For best ice results, discard ice in the bin as required and allow the ice maker to make a new fresh batch of ice. Water Fill Adjustment If the water ll needs to be adjusted, turning the “water adjust- ment screw” (see Figure 9) clockwise increases the ll amount, turning it counterclockwise decreases the ll amount. One com- plete revoluon will aect ll by 40cc. Do not turn the “water adjustment screw” more than (1) 360° revoluon in either direcon. Further adjustment than (1) revo- luon could damage the ice maker module.
