How the unit uses water
The icemaker begins with a fixed charge of
water that is contained in the water trough.
As the water flows to the freezing evaporator
surface, water that does not contain mineral
impurities will freeze and stick to the ice
cube molds. Water containing impurities will
fall back into the trough. During the ice
making process, fresh water enters the
trough continuously as water from the trough
freezes continuously on the evaporator.
Sounds the unit may make
Your new icemaker may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Most of these sounds are normal.
Hard surfaces like the floor or wall can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The flowing
describes the possible sounds you may expect to hear:
•
The high efficiency compressor makes a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
•
Water running from the evaporator to the water bin may make a splashing sound.
•
At the end of each cycle, you may hear a gurgling sound due to refrigerant flowing in the unit.
•
Sound of 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 storage bin.
CONTROL BOX (rear of unit)
RED LED: Ice full indicator light.
When this LED is lit, the ice storage bin is full or there is
something between the two arms of the ice-full sensor. The unit
will stop working. When ice cubes are removed and the sensor
is cleared, the red LED will flash for 3 minutes and unit will
return to ice making mode.
GREEN LED: Ice making indicator light.
When this LED is lit, the unit is in ice making mode, controlled by
a temperature probe on the evaporator. When the green LED
flashes, the unit is in ice making mode, controlled by a fixed
timer.
YELLOW LED: Ice harvesting indicator light.
When this LED is lit, the unit is in ice harvest mode, controlled
by a temperature probe on the evaporator. When the yellow
LED flashes, the unit is in ice harvest mode, controlled by a
fixed timer.
CLEAN BUTTON: When this button is pressed, the unit enters Cleaning mode. Green and yellow
LED’s will flash. To stop the cleaning mode, press the button again.
MODE BUTTON: Mainly for service. When this button is pressed unit changes from ice making mode to
ice harvest mode or vice versa. The unit’s current mode is indicated by the green or yellow LED’s.
Adjusting Ice Cube Size:
1. Press and hold the CLEAN and MODE buttons simultaneously for about 3 seconds. The unit will
enter the Size Adjustment mode. The green LED will blink continuously during size adjustment.
2a. Press the CLEAN button for smaller ice cubes. The ICE FULL (red) LED will flash as you decrease
the ice cube size and will finally blink when on the smallest possible setting.
2b. Press the MODE button for larger ice cubes. The ICE HARVEST (yellow) LED will flash as you
increase the ice cube size and finally blink when the largest size setting has been reached.
3. After 10 seconds, the unit will memorize the current state and return to previous mode.
NOTE: When in size adjustment mode, if all 3 indicator lights (ICE FULL/ICE MAKING/ICE HARVES)
blink together, it means the unit is in default factory setting size.
