· The ice maker comes with a 48″ (1219.2 mm) of 1/4″ O.D. PEX tubing for connecting the water filter to the unit. See fig. 1 for the ice machine’s water inlet location.
· DO NOT connect the water supply directly to the icemaker. Connect the water supply to the water filter. Tubing for connecting water filter to water supply NOT provided by TRUE.
· Failure to install the water filter will void the machine warranty.
· The provided water filter must be installed within 30″ (762 mm) of the ice machine’s water inlet.
· Water pressure must be between 20-80 psig (1.4. 5.5 bar). If the water pressure exceeds the maximum pressure, install a water pressure regulator.
· A reverse osmosis system can be used if there is constant water pressure of 20-80 psig (1.4-5.5 bar).
· Cold water supply required. Incoming water temperature must remain 40-100°F (4.4-7.8°C).
· Never connect to a hot water supply. Be sure all hot water restrictors installed for other equipment are working, such as check valves on sink faucets, dishwashers, etc.
· Water regulating valve recommended for pressures higher than 80 psig (5.5 bar). If so desired, installing a water hammer valve can reduce the noise and shock from the valve closing.

· Use tight-fitting, leak-proof permanent connections for the water supply. Soldered connections are always best. In the absence of soldering, use compression-type fittings for more reliability.
· While push fittings are acceptable, they are prone to leaks when installed incorrectly and/or not according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
· TRUE recommends coiling extra length of supply hose behind the machine to allow proper servicing of the unit. See fig. 1.
· Connect the water supply line to the house supply with an easily accessible shut-off valve in your installation. See fig. 1.
· Insulate the supply line to prevent condensation.
· When switching to PEX, the tubing must be rated for 150 psi (10.3 bar) burst pressure minimum and 180°F (82.2°C).

CABINET OPERATION

ICE MAKING SEQUENCE
Your TRUE Ice® machine will produce one batch of ice (24 cubes) approximately every 20 minutes. The following steps occur during ice making —
INITIAL FILL / INITIAL HARVEST The ice machine always begins in Fill mode. During Fill or Harvest modes — · The display will read FiL (Fill mode) or hAr
(Harvest mode).
· The reservoir fills with water (for 2­3 minutes)
· Excess / residual water drains.
· Any residual ice cubes from a previous cycle are melted free from the evaporator by warming the evaporator with a warm refrigerant (Harvest mode).
ICE MAKING
When making ice — · The display will read ICE
· Water sprays into the inverted ice cups as the evaporator cools, forming ultra-clear ice cubes in each cup
· The compressor, condenser fan motor, and water pump operate.
· As ice is produced on the evaporator, the reservoir’s water level will lower.
· Adjusting the ice cube size alters the water level needed for completing the cycle.
· The ice making cycle ends when
· The reservoir’s water level has dropped to a sufficient level based on the ice cube size setting OR
· When the t1 evaporator probe detects the minimum temperature threshold.

ICE HARVEST
When harvesting ice — · The display will read hAr
· The compressor remains on, but the condenser fan motor and pump turn off. The hot gas bypass and water valves open.
· As the evaporator warms, ice cubes begin to fall into the ice bin.
· The reservoir refills with water and overflows to flush impurities down to the drain pump.
· The harvest cycle ends when the evaporator reaches 47°F (8.3°C) and then a completion timer expires.
· All 24 ice cubes should fall into the ice storage bin before the next ice making cycle begins.
FULL BIN
When the ice bin is full — · The display will read FUL
· The ice machine shuts off automatically when the ice level sensor determines the amount of ice has reached the set level.
· The condenser fan will turn on in reverse to clean the condenser; this removes any built-up dust or debris, which prolongs the time needed between full condenser coil cleanings.
· The drain pump will periodically run to remove any residual water in the bin from melted ice cubes.
· The ice machine turns back on when the ice level sensor determines the amount of ice has decreased to below the set level.

APPLIANCE CARE & CLEANING
CAUTION: DO NOT USE ANY STEEL WOOL, ABRASIVE OR CHLORINE BASED PRODUCTS TO CLEAN STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES.
STAINLESS STEEL OPPONENTS
There are three basic things which can break down your stainless steel’s passivity layer and allow corrosion to form.
· Scratches from wire brushes, scrapers, and steel pads are just a few examples of items that can be abrasive to stainless steel’s surface.
· Deposits left on your stainless steel can leave spots. You may have hard or soft water depending on what part of the country you live in. Hard water can leave spots. Hard water that is heated can leave deposits if left to sit too long. These deposits can cause the passive layer to break down and rust your stainless steel. All deposits left from food prep or service should be removed as soon as possible.
· Chlorides are present in table salt, food, and water. Household and industrial cleaners are the worst type of chlorides to use.

STAINLESS STEEL CLEANING AND RESTORATION Stainless steel cleaners must be free of phosphates, chlorine, chloride, and ammonia.
TRUE offers environmentally-friendly cleaner and polish through our True Store at https://store. trueresidential.com/products/stainless-steel-cleanpolish-kit
CUSTOM PAINTED APPLIANCES AND HARDWARE For painted doors and other surfaces, use a mild solution of soap and water with a soft microfiber cloth.

APPLIANCE CARE & CLEANING
8 TIPS TO HELP PREVENT RUST ON STAINLESS STEEL
· Maintain the Cleanliness of Your Equipment ­ Avoid build-up of hard stains by cleaning frequently. Use cleaners at the recommended strength (alkaline chlorinated or non-chloride).
· Use the Correct Cleaning Tools ­ Use non-abrasive tools when cleaning your stainless steel products. The stainless steel’s passive layer will not be harmed by soft cloths and plastic scouring pads.
· Clean Along Polishing Lines ­ Polishing lines (“grain”) are visible on some stainless steels. Always scrub parallel to polishing lines when visible. Use a plastic scouring pad or soft cloth when you cannot see the grain.
· Use Alkaline, Alkaline-Chlorinated or Non-Chloride Cleaners ­ While many traditional cleaners are loaded with chlorides, the industry is providing an ever increasing choice of non-chloride cleaners. If you are not sure of your cleaner’s chloride content, contact your cleaner supplier. If they tell you that your present cleaner contains chlorides, ask if they have an alternative. Avoid cleaners containing quaternary salts, as they can attack stainless steel, causing pitting and rusting.
· Rinse ­ When using chlorinated cleaners, you must rinse and wipe dry immediately. It is better to wipe standing cleaning agents and water as soon as possible. Allow the stainless steel equipment to air dry. Oxygen helps maintain the passivity film on stainless steel.
· Never Use Hydrochloric Acid (Muriatic Acid) on Stainless Steel ­ Even diluted, hydrochloric acid can cause corrosion, pitting and stress corrosion cracking of stainless steel.

· Water Treatment ­ To reduce deposits, soften hard water when possible. Installation of certain filters can remove corrosive and distasteful elements. Salts in a properly maintained water softener can also be to your advantage. Contact a treatment specialist if you are not sure of the proper water treatment.
· Regularly Restore & Passivate Stainless Steel ­ Stainless steel gets its stainless properties from the protective chromium oxides on its surface. If these oxides are removed by scouring, or by reaction with harmful chemicals, then the iron in the steel is exposed and can begin to oxidize, or rust. Passivation is a chemical process that removes free iron and other contaminants from the surface of stainless steel, allowing the protective chromium oxides to re-form.

IMITED WARRANTY STATEMENT & ADA ICE MACHINE

TWO-YEAR PARTS & LABOR WARRANTY TRUE® warrants to the original purchaser of every new TRUE refrigerated unit, the cabinet and all parts thereof, to be free from defects in material or workmanship under normal and proper use and maintenance as specified by TRUE and upon proper installation and start-up in accordance with the instruction packet supplied with each TRUE unit. TRUE’s obligation under this warranty is limited to a period of two (2) years from the date of original installation. Any warranty coverage is dependent on the purchase date of the cabinet being within 27 months of the original ship date from TRUE.

ADDITIONAL THREE-YEAR COMPRESSOR WARRANTY
In addition to the Two (2) year warranty stated above, TRUE warrants its hermetically and semi-hermetically sealed compressor to be free from defects in both material and workmanship under normal and proper use and maintenance service for a period of three (3) additional years the date of original installation. Any part covered under this warranty that is determined by TRUE to have been defective within this time frame, is limited to the repair or replacement of defective parts or assemblies. Compressors determined by TRUE to have been defective within this extended time period will, at TRUE’s option, be either repaired or replaced with a compressor or compressor parts of similar design and capacity. The three (3) year extended compressor warranty applies only to hermetically and semi-hermetically sealed parts of the compressor and does not apply to any other parts or components, including, but not limited to: cabinet, paint finish, temperature control, refrigerant, metering device, driers, motor starting equipment, fan assembly or any other electrical component, etcetera.

COMPRESSOR WARRANTY
The three (3) year compressor warranty detailed above will be voided if the following procedure is not carefully adhered to: 1. This system contains R600 refrigerant and polyol ester lubricant. The polyol ester lubricant has rapid moisture absorbing qualities. If long exposure to the
ambient conditions occur, the lubricant must be removed and replaced with new. For oil amounts and specifications please call TRUE technical service department (855-372-1368). Failure to comply with recommended lubricant specification will void the compressor warranty. 2. Drier replacement is very important and must be changed when a system is opened for servicing. An OEM exact replacement should be used. The new drier must also be the same capacity as the drier being replaced. 3. Micron level vacuums must be achieved to ensure low moisture levels in the system. 500 microns or lower must be obtained

DISPLAY PRODUCTS TRUE Residential Products on showroom display that are sold more than 2 years and 3 months (27 months) from the invoice date to the dealer would carry a 1 year parts and labor warranty, along with an additional 2 year compressor, parts only warranty.

TERMS APPLICABLE TO EACH WARRANTY
Any part covered under the above warranties that is determined by TRUE to have been defective within the time frame is limited to the repair or replacement, including labor charges, of defective parts or assemblies. The labor warranty shall include standard straight time labor charges only and reasonable travel time, as determined by TRUE. Units must be purchased through an authorized TRUE Residential dealer in order to qualify for warranty.

WARRANTY CLAIMS
All claims for labor or parts must be made directly through TRUE. All claims should include: model number and serial number of cabinet, proof of purchase, and date of installation. In case of warranted compressor, the compressor model tag must be returned to TRUE along with the above listed information. Failure to notify TRUE within three (3) months of the defect giving rise to the breach will bar any remedy under warranty. TRUE reserves the right to request any failed part covered under warranty to be returned.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY
This limited warranty does not cover any damage due to: (a) transportation; (b) storage; (c) installation; (d) improper use; (e) failure to follow the product instructions or to perform any preventive maintenance; (f) modifications or alterations; (g) neglect; (h) unauthorized repair; (i) normal wear and tear; or (j) external causes such as accidents, abuse, act of God, or other actions or events beyond our reasonable control. This warranty does not cover failures related to the water supply, problems in the plumbing going to the unit, or external drain line malfunctions. Only connect your ice machine to a potable water supply. Also not covered are failures resulting from ambient conditions that are outside the limits specified in the owner’s manual.

NO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES TRUE is not responsible for economic loss, profit loss; or special, indirect or consequential damages, including without limitation, losses or damages arising from food or product spoilage claims whether or not on account of refrigeration failure.

WARRANTY IS NOT TRANSFERABLE This warranty is not assignable and applies only in favor of the original purchaser/user to whom delivered. Any such assignment or transfer shall void the warranties herein made and shall void all warranties, express or implied, including any warranty or merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.

REMEDY LIMITATIONS
TRUE’s sole obligation under this warranty is limited to either repair or replacement of parts. This warranty neither assumes nor authorizes any person to assume obligations other than those expressly covered by this warranty. The remedies described in this warranty statement are the sole and exclusive remedies and TRUE’s entire liability for any breach of this limited warranty. TRUE’s liability shall under no circumstances exceed the actual amount paid for the defective product, nor shall TRUE under any circumstances be liable for any consequential, incidental, special or punitive damages or losses, whether direct or indirect.

LIMIT ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES TRUE limits the duration and remedies of all implied warranties, including without limitation the warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose to the duration of this express limited warranty statement.

IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TRUE is not responsible for the repair or replacement of failed or damaged components resulting from electrical power failure, high or low voltage, use of extension cords, or improper grounding of the unit.

YOUR RIGHTS UNDER STATE LAW This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may have other rights that vary from state to state. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of consequential damages or a limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you.

ENVIRONMENTAL ATTRIBUTES Any and all environmental attributes, including environmental offset credit rights, with respect to TRUE refrigeration units manufactured after September 1, 2015, shall remain the property of TRUE Manufacturing Co., Inc. and are not transferred.

OUTSIDE U.S./CANADA This warranty does not apply to, and TRUE is not responsible for, any warranty claims made on products sold or used outside the United States or Canada.
