INSTALLING THE WATER SUPPLY

Prepare Plumbing

CAUTION
Plumbing installation must observe all state and local codes. Al water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.

Water Supply Connection
When connecting the water supply, please note the following:
Before installing the unit and connecting to the cold water supply, review the local plumbing codes.
The water pressure should be between a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 120 psi (138 and 827 kPa).
Water has less than 400 mg/L (ppm) total dissolved solids and hardness level below 200 mg/L (ppm) — i e below 12 grains per gallon. Check by using TDS meter or consulting with local water company.
TDS and/or water hardness above these limits should be treated with a reverse osmosis system or other filtration system.
Softened water is not recommended as it may result in softer ice than desired.
Connection to the water main is made with hose-set only.

Hose-set must be new, not reused, and in compliance with IEC 61770.
The water line MUST have a shut-off valve in the supply line.
The water line should be looped into 2 coils. This will allow the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing.
Make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation.

CAUTION
Do not use any plastic water supply line. The line is under pressure at all times. Plastic may crack or rupture with age and cause damage to your home. Do not use tape or joint compound when attaching a braided flexible water supply line that includes a rubber gasket. The gasket provides an adequate seal — other materials could cause blockage of the valve. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm, flooding or void the product warranty. Use new hose set. Do not reuse old hose set.
CAUTION
Turn off water supply and disconnect electrical supply to unit prior to installation. Use caution when handling back panel. The edges could be sharp.

1. Turn off water supply and disconnect electrical supply to product prior to attempting installation.
2. Remove the back panel.
3. Thread water line through back panel hole (with bushing).
4. Locate water valve inlet and connect to valve.

5. Turn on water supply and check for leaks.
6. Reinstall back panel.

ICE MAKER OPERATION

When the ice bucket is full, the ice making mechanism will shut off. However, the refrigeration system will continue to cool and maintain the ice supply.

NOTE
Do not place cans or bottles in the ice compartment because they will freeze.

To turn off ice production:
Raise the bin arm into an upright and locked position. The unit will preserve temperature for ice storage.

NOTE
If not intending to use the ice maker, turn the water supply valve off. It is also important to raise the bin arm of the ice maker (see above). Failure to raise the bin arm may result in damage to the water valve.
Certain sounds are normal during the unit’s operation. You may hear the compressor or fan motor, the water valve, or ice dropping into the ice bucket.

CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick, knife or other sharp instrument to separate cubes. Shake the ice bucket instead.

During periods of limited use or high ambient temperatures, it is common for cubes to fuse together. Gently shake the bucket to break apart cubes. If not using the ice maker regularly, empty the ice bucket periodically to ensure fresh cubes. It is normal for cubes to appear cloudy. The cause is air trapped in the water because of fast freezing. It is not caused by the health, taste or chemical make up of the water. It is the same air that is in every glass of water you drink. Remove the ice bucket for emptying and cleaning. To remove the ice bucket, raise the bin arm and remove the bucket from the ice compartment. Use the ice bucket for ice storage only.

Ice Cube Thickness Adjustment
Interval – As Required.
On ice maker equipped models, adjust the cube size by changing water amount injected into the ice maker assembly as follows:

1. Remove the ice maker assembly cover (1).
2. Find the adjusting screw on the ice maker assembly control box (2).
The adjusting screw is just below the minus (-) and plus (+) signs on the control box.

CAUTION
Too large of an adjustment to the screw can cause the water to overflow the ice maker and can cause property damage.
3. Turn the adjusting screw toward the minus (-) sign (clockwise) for smaller cubes or toward the plus (+) sign (counterclockwise) for larger cubes.
4. Install the ice maker assembly cover.

Adjusting Ice Harvest
1. Remove the front grille.
2. Using a flat tip screwdriver, turn the adjusting screw (3) a small increment clockwise for a COLDER setting (slower ice production) or counterclockwise for a WARMER setting (faster ice production).
3. Reinstall the front grille (two screws).

CARE AND CLEANING

Exterior Cleaning
Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor when exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or cleaners with bleach.

Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good quality all-in- one stainless steel cleaner and polish monthly. For best results use Claire® Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner. Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will remove surface contamination that could lead to rust. Some installations may require cleaning weekly.

Do not clean with steel wool pads.
Do not use stainless steel cleaners or polishes on any glass surfaces.
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass cleaner.
Do not use cleaners not specifically intended for stainless steel on stainless steel surfaces (this includes glass, tile, and counter cleaners).

If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it quickly with Bon-AmP or Barkeepers Friend Cleansere and a nonabrasive cloth. Always clean with the grain. Always finish with Clairee Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or comparable product to prevent further problems.

Using abrasive pads such as ScotchBriteTM will cause the graining in the stainless steel to become blurred.

Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of the rust may not be possible.

Integrated Models
To clean integrated panels, use household cleaner per the cabinet manufacturer’s recommendations.

Interior Cleaning
Disconnect power to the unit.
Clean the interior and all removed components using a mild nonabrasive detergent and warm solution applied with a soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.
Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and clean water.
Do not use any solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. These types of cleaners may transfer taste and/or odor to the interior products and damage or discolor the interior.

Defrosting
This unit is a manual defrost model and will require occasional defrosting. When there is build-up of 1/4″ (6 mm) or more of frost, manually defrost the unit.

CAUTION
DO NOT use an ice pick or other sharp instrument to help speed up defrosting. These instruments can puncture the inner lining or damage the cooling unit. DO NOT use any type of heater to defrost. Using a heater to speed up defrosting can cause personal injury and damage to the inner lining.

To Defrost

1. Disconnect power to the unit.

2. Remove ice bucket and discard ice.

3. Place towel or other absorbent material on bottom of ice bin.

4. Fill the ice bucket half full with warm, not hot water.
   This will help the unit defrost faster.

5. Place the ice bucket back into the unit on top of the towel or other absorbent material.

6. Prop the door in an open position (2 in. 150 mm) minimum).

7. After about 1 hour remove the ice bin and discard water.

8. Allow the frost to melt naturally.

9. After the frost melts completely clean the interior and all removed components. (See Interior Cleaning).

NOTE
DO NOT clean ice bucket using a dishwasher. The bucket is not dishwasher safe and will be damaged. 10. When the interior is dry, reconnect power and turn unit on.

NOTE
To safeguard against contaminates in ice, discard first three batches of ice after defrosting.

Cleaning Condenser
Interval – every six months
To maintain operational efficiency, keep the front grille free of dust and lint, and clean the condenser when necessary.
Depending on environmental conditions, more or less frequent cleaning may be necessary.

WARNING
WARNING – Disconnect electric power to the unit before cleaning the condenser.

NOTE
Do not use any type of cleaner on the condenser unit.
Condenser may be cleaned using a vacuum, soft brush, or compressed air.

1. Remove the grille. See GRILLE INSTALLATION).
2. Clean the condenser coil using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
3. Install the grille.

STAINLESS STEEL MAINTENANCE

Background
Stainless steel does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary steel, but it is not stain or corrosion proof. Stainless steels can discolor or corrode if not maintained properly.

Stainless steels differ from ordinary carbon steels by the amount of chromium present. It is this chromium that provides an invisible protective film on the surface called chrome-oxide. This protective chrome-oxide film on the surface can be damaged or contaminated, which may result in discoloration, staining, or corrosion of the base metal.

Care & Cleaning
Routine cleaning of the stainless steel surfaces will serve to greatly extend the life of your product by removing contaminants. This is especially important in coastal areas which can expose the stainless to severe contaminants such as halide salts, (sodium chloride).

It is strongly recommended to periodically inspect and thoroughly clean crevices, weld points, under gaskets, rivets, bolt heads, and any locations where small amounts of liquid could collect, become stagnant, and concentrate contaminates. Additionally, any mounting hardware that is showing signs of corrosion should be replaced.

Frequency of cleaning will depend upon the installation location, environmental, and usage conditions.

Choosing a Cleaning Product
The choice of a proper cleaning product is ultimately that of the consumer, and there are many products from which to choose. Depending upon the type of cleaning and the degree of contamination, some products are better than others.

Typically the most effective and efficient means for routine cleaning of most stainless steel products is to give the surfaces a brisk rubbing with a soft cloth soaked in warm water and a gentle detergent, or mild mixture of ammonia. Rubbing should, to the extent possible, follow the polish lines of the steel, and always insure thorough rinsing after cleaning.

Although some products are called “stainless steel cleaners,” some may contain abrasives which could scratch the surface, (compromising the protective chrome-oxide film), and some many contain chlorine bleach which will dull, tarnish or discolor the surface if not completely removed.

After the stainless surfaces have been thoroughly cleaned, a good quality car wax may be applied to help maintain the finish.

NOTE
Stainless steel products should never be installed, or stored in close proximity to chlorine chemicals.

Whichever cleaning product you chose, it should be used in strict accordance with the instructions of the cleaner manufacturer.

EXTENDED NON-USE

Extended Non-Use
Vacation/Holiday – Prolonged Shutdown
The following steps are recommended for periods of extended non-use:

1. Remove all consumable content from the unit.
2. Disconnect the power cord from its outlet/socket and leave it disconnected until the unit is returned to service.
3. Turn off the water supply.
4. If ice is on the evaporator, allow ice to thaw naturally.
5. Clean and dry the interior of the cabinet. Ensure all water has been removed from the unit.
6. Disconnect the water and drain line (if applicable) making sure all water is removed from the lines.
7. The door must remain open to prevent formation of mold and mildew Open door a minimum of 2″ (50 mm) to provide the necessary ventilation.

Winterization
If the unit will be exposed to temperatures of 400F (50C) or less, the steps above must be followed. In addition, P60 drain pumps in clear ice machines must be drained according to the following procedure:

1. Remove the drain pump from the ice machine.
2. Drain the water in the pump’s reservoir by turning the pump upside down and allowing the water to drain through the pump’s inlet and vent tube fittings.
3. After water is drained, reinstall the drain pump and reattach all connections.

The remedies described above for each warranty are the only ones that Marvel will provide, either under these warranties or under any warranty arising by operation of law. Marvel will not be responsible for any consequential or incidental damages arising from the breach of these warranties or any other warranty, whether express, implied, or statutory. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. These warranties give you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

Any warranty that may be implied in connection with your purchase or use of the product, including any warranty of merchantability or any warranty fit for a particular purpose is limited to the duration of these warranties, and only extends to five years in duration for the parts described in the section related to the five year limited warranty above. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
