WARNING
WARNING – Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous – even if they sit out for “just a few hours”.
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:

  • Take off the doors or remove the drawers.
  • Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.

INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE

Select Location
The proper location will ensure the peak performance of your appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To ensure your product performs to specifications, the recommended installation location temperature range is from 50 to 100°F (10 to 38°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appliance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions. Adjacent cabinets and countertops can be installed around the appliance as long as the front grille remains unobstructed. All Marvel Professional models with articulated hinges are intended for built-in applications only.
CAUTION
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the front grille allow air to flow through the condenser heat exchanger. Restrictions to this airflow will result in increased energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason, it is important this area not be obstructed and the grille openings kept clean. Marvel does not recommend the use of a custom-made grille as airflow may be restricted.

Marvel MLNP115 IS 01A NUGGET ICE MACHINES - fig 1

Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appliance should be set so the unit is firmly positioned on the floor and level from side to side and front to back. The overall height of your Marvel appliance may be adjusted higher (by turning the leveling leg out, CCW) and lower (by turning the leveling leg in, CW).
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid surface and protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid scratching the floor. With the assistance of another person, lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs. Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appliance forward using caution. On a level, the surface checks the appliance for levelness and adjusts accordingly.

WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard

  • Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. They can be hazardous and can degrade product performance.
  • This appliance should not, under any circumstances, be installed to an un-grounded electrical supply.
  • Do not remove the grounding prong from the power cord. (See Figure 3).
  • Do not use an adapter. (See Figure 4).
  • Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the appliance. Doing so may cause an electrical shock, which may result in severe injury or death.

ELECTRICAL

Electrical Connection
A grounded 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is required.
This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord that has a three- pronged, grounded plug. It must be plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances (see Figure 6). If the circuit does not have a grounding-type receptacle, it is the responsibility and obligation of the customer to provide the proper power supply. The third ground prong should not, under any circumstances, be cut or removed.

NOTE
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are prone to nuisance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut down. GFCIs are generally not used on circuits with power equipment that must run unattended for long periods of time unless required to meet local building codes and ordinances.

CUTOUT & PRODUCT DIMENSIONS

PREPARE SITE
CAUTION
Your product has been designed for either free-standing or built-in installation. When built-in, your unit does not require additional air space for the top, sides, or rear. However, the front grille must NOT be obstructed, and clearance is required for an electrical connection in the rear.
CAUTION
The unit can NOT be installed behind a closed cabinet door. If you would like to align the face of the unit with other adjacent cabinet doors, you may need to alter the wall just behind the drain connection on the unit to accommodate the drain.

CLEANING YOUR ICE MACHINE

Cleaning
EXTERIOR CLEANING
Stainless steel 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.
CAUTION
Do not clean with steel wool pads. 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-Ami® or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser® and a nonabrasive cloth. Always clean with the grain. Always finish with Claire® Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or comparable product to prevent further problems.
CAUTION
Using abrasive pads such as ScotchBrite™ 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.
INTERIOR CLEANING
Disconnect power to the unit.
Clean the interior and all removed components using a mild non-abrasive detergent and warm solution applied with a soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.
Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and clean potable water.
CAUTION
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.
NUGGET ICE MACHINE CLEANING CYCLE
This ice machine has an automatic clean alert function. The control will indicate in the display, approximately every six months with normal use, reminding you to clean your unit. When is displayed, ice production will continue. Depending on water conditions, more frequent cleaning may be necessary. Cleaning removes lime scale, and other mineral deposits, and sanitizes the machine. Poor ice quality and reduced ice output are signs that cleaning is necessary. If the machine consistently requires more frequent cleaning, consult a plumber to test the water quality and recommend the appropriate treatment.
