CAUTION
!
The water supply to the ice-maker must be turned on prior
to turning the ice-maker on. Failure to do so will cause
rapid dry cycling of the ice-maker mold heater resulting in
temperature control issues in the freezer compartment.
Turning on the ice machine
After connecting the water supply, and setting your ice ma-
chine in place plug the power cord into the wall receptacle.
Then place the switch located behind the door below the
ice compartment (see Figure 9) to the "ON" position. The
temperature control is factory preset, allow the ice maker
to run for 24 hours so the interior temperature will stabilize.
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 shaft. Turning it
clockwise will make the unit colder. Turning it counterclock-
wise will make it warmer. Turning it counterclockwise until it
stops will shut off the compressor and fan motor.
CAUTION
!
Should you turn off your control, allow at least five (5)
minutes before restarting in order to give the motor control
time to automatically reset so that it can restart the motor.
Electrical power to your unit is controlled by the "ON/OFF"
rocker switch located behind the door below the ice com-
partment (See Figure 9).

It is recommended the ice-maker is shut off when remov-
ing the bucket, or ice may be dispensed onto the freezer
compartment floor.
If the ice is not used regularly, it will clump together with
time. For best ice results, discard ice in the bin as required
and allow the ice-maker to make a new fresh batch of ice.
Shut-off the ice-maker by raising the shut-off arm before
removing the bucket.
Long and short term storage of ice-maker:
When operation of the appliance is to be discontinued
for any length of time, the ice cube mold in the ice-maker
should be emptied by allowing the ice-maker to dispense
cubes with the water supply turned off.
1. Turn the water supply off.
2. Raise the ice-maker bail arm.
3. Empty the ice bucket.
4. Replace the ice bucket in the unit and lower the bail
Dispensing of the cubes should occur within 2 hours. After
the ice-cubes dispense - empty, clean, and replace the ice

cube bucket, and raise the bail arm.

The unit must be installed level for proper ice-maker
operation.
The shutoff arm wire must be down in its lowest posi-
tion for the ice-maker to operate. (See Figure 10).
When the freezer section and ice-maker unit has suf-
ficiently cooled, the ice-maker will harvest ice cubes
automatically.
When the ice bucket is full, the ice-maker will automati-
cally shut off.
You may manually stop the ice-maker by raising the
shut off arm to the locking position at the up most posi-
tion. (See Figure 10).
