CORRECTION
Make sure that the reservoir drain plug is installed properly.
Check the water line to the unit to make sure there are no
restrictions or kinks in the line. Check all filters to make
sure they are not restricted or plugged.
Make certain that water line is not connected to the water
softener.
Move the unit to an area where room temperature is above
55° F.
Make sure that the reservoir drain plug is installed properly.
Check the water line to the unit to make sure there are no
restrictions or kinks in the line. Check all filters to make
sure they are not restricted or plugged.
See "CLEANING YOUR ICE MACHINE" section for clean-
ing the unit for proper operation.
Restriction in drain lines will cause ice in the bin to melt. If
using a gravity drain, make certain there are no kinks or
restrictions in the drain lines. If using a drain pump, check
the inlet screen, discharge line, and vent line for any build-
up or restrictions.
Make certain the grille in the front of the unit is free and
open for proper air circulation. Check and clean the con-
denser coil by removing the grille in the front of the unit.
Clean the condenser with a vacuum and brush attachment.
The unit will automatically shut down when ice reaches the
sensing tube.
The unit will automatically shut down when ice reaches the
sensing tube and has completed the harvest of the ice slab.
Move the unit to an area where room temperature is below
90° F.
Use a level to check the unit for level from side to side and
front to rear.
Set the rocker switch on the grille of the ice machine to the
"ON" position.
Remove the escutcheon panel and plug the grid-cutter into
the receptacle on the side of the line.
It can take up to 35 minutes to cut through a harvested ice
slab. This is normal operation.
