WARNING

EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD

USE TWO OR MORE PEOPLE TO MOVE AND INSTALL THE ICEMAKER

FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN BACK OR OTHER INJURY

Installation of Your Icemaker

• THIS ICEMAKER SHOULD BE PROPERLY INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL This icemaker MUST be installed with electrical and water connections in accordance with all state and local codes.
• Place your icemaker on a floor that is strong enough to support the icemaker when it is fully loaded. To level your icemaker, adjust the legs at the front of the icemaker.
• Allow a minimum of 34 inch of space between the top and sides of the icemaker and a minimum of 4 inches at the back, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor. Ensure the front of the unit is completely unobstructed.
• Locate the icemaker away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the icemaker not to perform properly.
• Choose a well ventilated area with temperatures above 55°F (13°C) and below 90°F (32°C). This unit MUST be installed in an area protected from the elements.
• Avoid locating the icemaker in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form quickly on the evaporator requiring more frequent defrosting of the icemaker.

INSTALLATION CLEARANCES:

TOP VIEW 4" Rear of unit 3/4" Right side Front of unit 3/4" SIDE VIEW 4" 5"

• The installation of this icemaker requires a cold water supply inlet of 14 (6.35mm) soft copper tubing with a shut off valve.
• The icemaker requires a continuous water supply with a minimum pressure of 14.5 psig and a static pressure not to exceed 80 psig. The temperature of the water supply into the icemaker should be between 41^ (5°C) and 77^ (25°C) for proper operation.
• It is strongly recommended that a water filter be used. A filter, if it is of the proper type, can remove taste and odors as well as particles. Some water is very hard, and softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. De-Ionized water is NOT recommended.

Warning

Operation of the icemaker for extended periods outside of the normal temperature ranges as described above may affect product performance.

Leveling the ice maker

It is important for the icemaker to be leveled in order to work properly. It can be raised or lowered by rotating the plastic sheaths around each of the four casters on the bottom of the machine .If you find that the surface is not level, rotate the casters until the ice maker becomes level .You may need to make several adjustments to level it. We recommend using a carpenter's level to check the machine.

You will find that the casters make it easy for one person to move the machine. This is useful for cleaning and sanitizing the surface on which the icemaker is installed because it allows you to move the unit and have easy access to the surface to be cleaned.

IMPORTANT: Once you are ready to install it in a cabinet or directly on the floor, you must adjust the feet to level the ice maker. If the floor is level, just revolve the two front casters to touch the floor.

Water Supply

The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water supply pressure should be a minimum of 15 psig with a static pressure not more than 80 psig. (A wall outlet directly behind the ice machine will make installation easier.)

IMPORTANT:

1. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements. Professional installation is recommended.
2. Make certain the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.
3. Check for leaks after connection.

Tools required: 12 -in. open-end wrench, Phillips screwdriver

Connecting the water line:

1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.
2. Find a 12 -in. to 34 -in. vertical cold water pipe near the installation location. The distance should be less than 6 feet. The water supply hose provided with the ice maker is about 6 feet long.
3. A shut-off valve must be installed to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a plain piece of copper tubing, attach a 14 " O.D. compression union to the tubing and remove the nut.
4. Connect the nut of the water supply hose to the tap, and connect the other end with the water

inlet. Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half turn with wrench.

1. Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection leaks. Tighten every connection (including connection at the water inlet).

IMPORTANT: When you connect the water supply hose and the drain hose, pay attention to the indications of "Water inlet" and "Drain outlet" on the machine.

Water tap (¼°o.d.) Water inlet valve Nut of water draining hole Drain outlet Water supply line Drain line Floor drain

Drain

You must connect the drain line before using the ice maker. Follow the steps outlined below. Connecting the drain line:

NOTE: A gravity drain system is used in this type of icemaker. If there is a drain line near the ice maker, the best choice is to drain water to the drain line through the drain water hose provided with ice maker.

1. Locate the floor drain near the ice maker. The distance should be less than 5 feet since the length of the long drain water hose provided with the ice maker is about 5 feet.

2. Find the drain outlet on the back of ice maker. Connect the drain outlet to the water draining hose, and insert the other end of the hose into the drain line.

NOTE: Never allow the drain hose to hang or loop higher than the floor of the ice storage bin.

1. All horizontal runs of drain lines must have a fall of 14 " per foot. An air gap will likely be required between the ice maker drain tube and the drain/waste receptacle. A standpipe with a trap below it would be acceptable for the drain/waste receptacle. A floor drain is also acceptable.

2. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice storage bin to check for leaks in the drainage system. Tighten any connections that leak.

IMPORTANT: Infrequent drainage will cause a high rate of melting in the ice storage bin.

Operating method

1. Turn on the water tap, let the water trough fill, then press the ON/OFF button on the front panel. The ice maker will start working automatically.

Ice Making Stage

Ice-Harvest Stage

1. After approximately 3 minutes, the machine will automatically go to the ice-making stage, and the sound of water flowing will be heard.
2. When the batch of ice has been fully formed, ice will automatically be harvested to the ice storage bin.
3. When the ice storage bin is full, the machine stops making ice automatically.
4. The unit will start making ice again after the ice cubes are removed.

IMPORTANT:

• Although the unit has been tested and cleaned at the factory, due to long-term transit and storage, the first batch of cubes must be discarded.
  • Never turn the water supply tap off when the ice maker is working.
  • Never touch the evaporator when unit is running!
• Except to take ice from the unit, keep the door closed to reduce melting and insure proper ice formation.

How the machine makes ice

Set the ON/OFF button to the ON position.

The machine will automatically go to the ice making stage.

There are two distinct cycles: ice making and harvest.

The freeze cycle happens when water flows to the evaporator surface. The harvest cycle is when the ice is released and water enters the machine. A complete cycle takes about 20 minutes, but it depends on temperature and operating conditions.

Freeze: During the freeze cycle the compressor is pumping refrigerant, the fan motor is blowing air, and the water pump is circulating water. When the batch of ice has been fully formed, the ice maker stops the freeze cycle and the harvest cycle begins.

Harvest: During the harvest cycle the compressor is still operating, but the water pump has stopped. The hot gas valve opens, diverting hot refrigerant gas into the evaporator. The hot refrigerant gas warms the evaporator, causing the cubes to slide as a unit off the evaporator and into the storage bin. The freeze cycle will restart when all the cubes have been harvested.

How the machine uses the water

The ice maker begins with a fixed charge of water that is contained in the water trough. As the water flows on the freezing evaporator surface, the portion of water that does not contain mineral impurities freezes and sticks to the ice cube molds. The water containing impurities falls back into the water trough. During the ice making process, fresh water enters into the water trough continuously as the water in the trough freezes continuously in the evaporator.

Normal sounds

Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces like the floor and walls can make the sounds louder than they actually are. The following list describes the 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.
  • Water running 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.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

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 the main electrical power source.
4. Take out the ice storage bin to remove any remaining ice and water. Dry the bin.
5. Pull off the drainage tube of the water trough to drain off all water.
6. Leave the door open to allow for circulation and to prevent mold and mildew.
7. 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 cord. Grasp the plug and pull out firmly.

Cleaning The Icemaker

CAUTION

Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets, or there are other special considerations.

Important Note:

Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is not ice: objects like wine and beer bottles are not only unsanitary, but the labels may slip off and plug up the drain.

! WARNING

Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the unit is disconnected and the water line is shut off.

Exterior cleaning

The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution such as 1 oz. of dishwashing liquid mixed with 2 gallons of warm water. 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.

If the door panel is stainless steel, it may discolor when exposed to chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless steel with a mild detergent and warm water solution and a damp cloth. Never use an abrasive cleaning agent.

Interior Cleaning

The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the bin before the ice maker is used for the first time and reused after stopping for an extended period of time. It is usually convenient to sanitize the bin after the ice making system has been cleaned, and the storage bin is empty.

1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Open the door and with a clean cloth, wipe down the interior with a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce (29.5ml) of household bleach or chlorine and 2 gallons (7.5L) of hot water 95°F (35 °C) to 115 °F (46 °C).
3. Rinse thoroughly with clear water. The waste water will be drained off through the drainpipe.
4. Reconnect power to the unit.

The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other food container.

! WARNING

DO NOT use solvent cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may transmit taste to the ice cubes, or damage or discolor the interior.

Ice Making System Cleaning

Inlet Water Valve Water Line Nut of the water draining hole

Minerals that are removed from water during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard scaly deposit in the water system. Cleaning the system regularly helps remove the mineral scale buildup. How often you need to clean the system depends upon how hard your water is. With hard water of 4 to 5 grains/liter, you may need to clean the system as often as every 6 months.

1. Turn off power to the ice maker. Keep the ice nd drainpipe.

2. Open the door and scoop out all of the ice cubes. Either discard them or save them in an ice chest or cooler.

3. Remove the screws in the front cover, push forward to remove the front cover. Locate the control box.

Notice: Do not use too much force, as the wire leads connected to the power switch can be inadvertently disconnected. Use care in the area of the control box. Do not expose it to moisture.

1. Turn on the power to the ice maker. Pour 8 ounces of Nickel-Safe Ice Maker Cleaning Solution into the water bin. Add 8 ounces of tap water. After about 5 minutes, press down the "clean" button on the Control Box. (See figure below and following section.) The machine will run the Automatic Clean Mode.

Allow 30 minutes for proper cleaning. After cleaning, shut off the power switch, and unscrew the nut of the water-draining hole. Drain off the waste water to some container, and then screw the nut on tightly when the waste water is fully drained off.

1. The dirty water must be drained out completely. Perform steps 2 and 3 in the Interior Cleaning section.
2. Repeat steps 4 and 6 above 3 times (without Ice Maker Cleaning Solution) to rinse the ice making system completely. Note: The use of the Ice Maker Cleaner Solution in the water bin during the rinse is not needed.
3. Reassemble the front cover.
4. Turn on the power again. The machine will return to the regular ice making mode. Discard the first batch of ice.

2. Remove all ice cubes from the storage bin.
3. Prepare a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of household bleach and 2 gallons of hot water 95°F (35°C) to 115°F (46 °C). Remove the flake covers and slide away from the water bin and wipe the entire bin inside and out, covering the entire surface of the walls.
4. Fill a spray bottle with the sanitizing solution and spray all corners and edges, making sure to cover all surfaces with the solution. Soak the flake cover and slide away in the solution and put back in place after drying.
5. Keep the ice maker connected to the water supply. Turn on the power to the ice maker. Within 5 minutes, press the CLEAN button. The machine will run the Automatic Clean mode.
6. Allow 30 minutes for proper cleaning. After cleaning, shut off the power switch, and unscrew the nut of the water-draining hole. Drain off the waste water to some container, and then screw the nut on tightly when the waste water is fully drained off.
7. The dirty water must be drained out completely. Perform steps 2 and 3 in the Interior Cleaning section.
8. Repeat steps 5 to 7 above three times with fresh water to rinse the ice-making system completely.
9. Reassemble the front cover.
10. Turn on the power again. The machine will return to the regular ice making mode. Discard the first batch of ice.

Condenser cleaning

A dirty or clogged condenser prevents proper airflow, reduces ice making capacity, and causes higher than recommended operating temperatures that may lead to component failure. Have the condenser cleaned at least once every six months.

1. Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power.
2. Gently pull off the lower front louver.
3. Remove dirt and lint from the condenser and the unit compartment with the brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner.
4. Reassemble the lower front louver.
5. Plug in the ice maker or reconnect power.

Condenser Surface

Power Failure

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your icemaker if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your food.

Vacation Time

Short vacations: Leave the unit operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

Long vacations: If the icemaker will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary

Moving Your Icemaker

• Remove all the food.
• Securely tape down all loose items inside your unit.
• Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.
• Tape the doors shut.
• Be sure the unit stays in the upright position during transportation.

Energy Saving Tips

• The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing icemakers or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.
• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
