The bin thermostat stops the ice machine
when the bin is full. It is preset for normal
ambient temperatures and adjustments are
usually not required.
The thermostat is functioning correctly if,
when three ice cubes are placed on the ther-
mostat tube for 5 minutes, the ice machine
stops. The ice machine should restart 5
minutes after the cubes are removed.
I
f the ice machine stops before the bin is full or
runs after the bin is full, ambient temperatures
are probably high or low and the bin thermo-
s
tat can be adjusted as follows:
1)
To access the thermostat, remove the four
screws attaching the kickplate and tilt
forward to remove.
2)
Turn the thermostat to the left to decrease
the level of ice before automatic shut-off.
Turn to the right to increase the level of ice
before automatic shut-off.
3)
Reassemble the kickplate.
Power is supplied to ice machine during
this procedure. Avoid contact with the
fan blade and the electrical connections.
