IV. Preparing the Appliance for Periods of Non-Use
NOTICE
• When storing the appliance for an extended time or in sub-freezing temperatures,
follow the instructions below to prevent damage.
• To prevent damage to the water pump, do not leave the control switch in the
“WASH” position for extended periods of time when the water tank is empty.
When the appliance is not used for two or three days under normal conditions, it is
sufficient to move the control switch to the “OFF” position. When storing the appliance for
an extended time or in sub-freezing temperatures, follow the instructions below.
1. Remove the water from the icemaker water supply line:
1) Turn off the power supply, then remove the front panel.
2) Move the control switch on the control box to the “OFF” position.
3) Close the icemaker water supply line shut-off valve, then open the icemaker water
supply line drain valve.
4) Allow the line to drain by gravity.
5) Attach compressed air or carbon dioxide supply to the icemaker water supply line drain
valve.
6) Move the control switch to the “ICE” position.
7) Replace the front panel in its correct position, then turn on the power supply.
