How Your Ice Maker Works

When you first start your ice maker, the water pan will fill and the
system will rinse itself before starting to make ice. The rinsing
process takes about 5 minutes.
Under normal operating conditions, the ice maker will cycle at
preset temperatures. The ice level sensor located in the ice
storage bin will monitor the ice levels.
IMPORTANT:
If the water supply to the ice maker is turned off, be sure to
set the ice maker control to OFF.
The ice maker is designed to make clear ice from the majority
of water sources on a daily basis. If your results are
unsatisfactory, your water may need to be filtered or treated.
The Ice Making Process
1. Water is constantly circulated over a freezing plate. As the
water freezes into ice, the minerals in the water are rejected.
This produces a sheet of ice with a low mineral content.
2. When the desired thickness is reached, the ice sheet is
released and slides onto a cutter grid. The grid divides the
sheet into individual cubes.
3. The water containing the rejected minerals is drained after
each freezing cycle.
4. Fresh water enters the machine for the next ice making cycle.
5. Cubes fall into the storage bin. When the bin is full, the ice
maker shuts off automatically and restarts when more ice is
needed. The ice bin is not refrigerated, and some melting will
occur. The amount of melting varies with room temperature.
NOTE: As the room and water temperatures vary, so will the
amount of ice produced and stored. This means that higher
operating temperatures result in reduced ice production.

ICE MAKER USE

1. To start the normal ice making cycle, press ON.
2. To stop ice maker operation, press and hold OFF.
NOTE:
Pressing the ON/OFF switch does not shut off power to
the ice maker.
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard
the first batch produced.
Control Lock
The control panel can be turned off for easy cleaning or to avoid
unintentional activation by children or small pets.
NOTE: The control lock feature does not shut off power to the ice
maker or to the ice maker bin light. It simply deactivates the
control panel.
1. To lock the control panel, press and hold the Control Lock
button until the indicator appears.
2. To unlock the control panel, press and hold the Control Lock
button until the indicator disappears.
Service
The service light indicates when service is needed. If the service
light turns on, turn the ice maker off and back on. If the service
light turns on again, call for service.
Clean/Reset
The Cleaning/Reset Status light will help you know when it is time
to clean your ice maker. The light will change to yellow. This tells
you it is almost time to clean your ice maker. It is recommended
that you clean the ice maker when the status light changes to red
OR ice production decreases significantly. To clean your ice
maker, see "Ice Maker System."
