Installing the Ice Maker
Warning: Use two (2) or more people to move and install the ice maker.
Failure to do so can result in back or another injury.
The ice maker should be installed by a licensed plumber in accordance with
local electrical and plumbing code requirements. Before you plug the ice maker
into a power supply, be sure to let it stand upright for at least 24 hours to
allow the compressor’s oils to settle.
Unpacking the Ice Maker
Important: Do not remove any safety, warning, or product information
labels from your ice maker.
Carefully remove the packaging materials. Remove any shipping tape and glue
from your ice maker. Any tape or glue residue can be removed by rubbing with
your thumb or rubbing a small amount of dish soap on the area with your
fingers. Wipe these areas with warm water and dry. Do not use sharp
instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove
tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your ice maker. After
you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of your ice maker
before using it.
Installation
Warning:
-
This device does not meet Federal requirements for ignition protection. Don’t install it in
spaces containing gasoline engines, fuel tanks, or fuel line fittings. Failure to comply could result in accidental injury or death. -
If the rubber feet are removed from the bottom of the unit, the mounting screws must be reinstalled into the bottom of the cabinet to avoid damage to components mounted to the base pan.
- Choose a well-ventilated installation area. This unit MUST be installed in a location protected from the elements, such as rain and water spray or drips.
- This unit should not be located next to ovens, grills, or other high heat sources.
- Installation of the ice maker requires a cold water supply inlet of ¼” tubing with a shut-off valve within six (6) feet of the installation location.
- The installation must allow the ice maker to be pulled forward so that the rear can be accessed for service.
- This unit is designed to be operated in ambient temperatures between 50° F and 90° F. High ambient temperatures (90° F or higher) may reduce the ice production rate. For the best performance, keep the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat-generating equipment.
- The unit must sit on a secure and level surface. A mounting flange must NOT be used to support the unit’s weight. It is important for the ice maker to be leveled in order to work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of the ice maker by revolving the rubber leveling feet.
- If you are mounting the unit within cabinetry, make sure that the door has the desired range of motion. All doors come with the hinge on the right side, but can be reversed if desired.
- All electrical and water connections for the unit must be installed in accordance with all state and local codes.
- A standard electrical supply, properly grounded in accordance with the National Electric Code and local codes and ordinances is required.
Caution:
- There must be an unrestricted path for exhaust and fresh air intake. Recirculation between fresh air intake and exhaust air must be prevented.
- Any restriction of airflow or ventilation will disrupt the normal operation of the unit, resulting in damage to components which voids the warranty.
- Only connect the unit to a potable water supply.
Note: It is highly recommended that you install the ice maker with an inline water filter.
Installation Clearance Requirements
- If the unit is to be built in, 1″ or more must be allowed behind the unit for the waterline and plug clearance for proper operation.
- An additional ¼” must be left on both sides and the top of the unit.
- Fan-forced condenser cooling is used. This requires air circulation through the vents in the lower front section of the unit. The grille must be unobstructed.
Electrical Requirements
Electrical Shock Hazard
- Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
- Never remove the grounding prong from the plug.
- Never use an adapter.
- Never use an extension cord.
- Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, electrical shock, or death.
Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is important to
make sure you have the proper electrical connection: a standard electrical
supply (115 V, 60Hz.), properly grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required. The ice maker
should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice maker, be
provided. This provides the best performance and prevents overloading boat
wiring circuits which can lead to a fire hazard. Use an outlet that cannot be
turned off by a switch or pull chain. Immediately repair or replace the power
cord if it becomes frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not continue to use a cord
that has cracks or abrasions along its length or at either end. Be careful not
to damage the power cord when moving the ice maker.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
service agent, or another qualified person.
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be at least 15 amps.
Recommended Grounding Method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. It is
equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize
possible shock hazards, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-pronged and
grounding-type wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. Have the wall outlet and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician to ensure the outlet is properly
grounded? If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal
responsibility of the customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong wall
receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
Leveling the Ice Maker
Important: Once you are ready to install the ice maker in a cabinet or
directly on the floor, you must adjust the feet to level the ice maker. If the
floor is level, just rotate the two front feet to touch the floor.
It is important for the ice maker to be leveled in order to work properly. It
can be raised or lowered by rotating the four rubber feet on the bottom of the
machine. If you find that the surface is not level, rotate the feet until the
ice maker becomes level. You may need to make several adjustments to level it.
We recommend using a carpenter’s level to check the machine.
- Place a carpenter’s level on top of the product to check if the ice maker is level from front to back and side to side.
- Adjust the height of the feet as follows:
Turn the leveling feet to the right to lower that side of the ice maker. Turn
the leveling feet to the left to raise that side of the ice maker.
Reversing the Door
Swing
Tools needed: flathead screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver
Important: Before you begin, unplug the ice maker or disconnect the
power.
- Using a flathead screwdriver, separate the hinge axis from the top hinge.
- Remove the three screws securing the top hinge to the cabinet. Remove the plug buttons opposite the top hinge. Place hinge, screws, plug buttons, and hinge axis safely aside.
- Open the door about 20 degrees, then lift the door off the bottom hinge 2 and set the door aside.
- Remove the three screws securing the bottom hinge to the cabinet and the plugs opposite.
- Rotate the door 180 degrees from its original position. The handle should be opposite the door hinges.
- Replace the original top hinge on the opposite side at the bottom and the original bottom hinge on the opposite side at the top.
- Install the hinge axis back through the bottom hinge. Gently place the door on the bottom hinge and open it approximately 20 degrees.
- Install the top hinge axis and tighten firmly. Replace all plug buttons.
Water Supply Connections
The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water
supply pressure should be a minimum of 20 PSIG with a static pressure of not
more than 120 psi. (A wall outlet directly behind the ice maker will make
installation easier.) The temperature of the water feeding into the ice maker
should be between 41° F and 90° F for proper operation.
Important:
- All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
- Make certain that the pipes are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.
- Check for leaks after connection.
Connecting the Water Line:
Tools required: ½” Open-end Wrench, Phillips Screwdriver
- Turn off the main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line of water.
- Find a 1/4″ vertical cold water inlet of soft copper tubing with a shut-off valve near the installation location. The distance should be less than six (6) feet. The water supply hose provided with the ice maker is about six (6) feet long. Drains are not required for this unit.
- Connect the nuts of the water supply hose to the tap and water inlet valve. Tighten the nuts firmly by the hand, then one-half turn with the wrench.
- Turn on the main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection leaks. Tighten every connection (including connections at the water inlet).
Important: When you connect the water supply hose, pay attention to the
“Water inlet” labels on the ice maker.
In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter can
remove taste and odors as well as particles. Where water is very hard,
softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. De-
ionized water is not recommended.
Operation
Final Check List Before Operation
- Have all packing materials and tape been removed from the interior and exterior of the ice maker?
- Did you clean the ice storage bin?
- Have the installation instructions been followed, including connecting the machine to water and electricity?
- Has the machine been leveled?
- Is the ice maker in a site where the ambient temperature is between 50º F and 90º F and the water temperature is between 41º F and 90º F all year round?
- Has the water supply pressure been checked to ensure a minimum of 20 PSIG with a static pressure not to exceed 120 PSIG?
- Is there a clearance of at least 1″ at the rear of the ice maker?
- Has the power supply voltage been checked or tested against the nameplate rating? And has proper grounding been installed for the ice maker?
- Is the ice maker plugged in?
- Have you turned on the main water supply and the tap?
- Have you checked for leaks at all water supply connections?
Operating Method
The power on-off switch is located inside the door towards the bottom of
the ice maker. Press the power switch to turn the unit on or off. The ice
maker will begin to produce ice within 60 minutes after startup. Ice
production will stop automatically when the bucket is full enough to trigger
the wire shut-off arm. The unit should not be turned off if the door is closed
or there is ice or water inside the ice maker.
Ice Harvest Control
The ice harvest control adjusts the temperature at which the ice is harvested
from the ice maker mold. A colder setting results in harder ice, which is
slower to melt, but also increases ice production time. A warmer setting
speeds up ice production time. The ice harvest control is preset at the
factory and adjustments are not normally needed.
Important: Making adjustments may affect the daily ice production of the
unit.
To adjust the Ice Harvest Control:
-
Unscrew the two screws on the front grille and remove the grille.
-
Use a flathead screwdriver to turn the adjusting screw in small increments. Turn the adjusting screw clockwise for a colder setting, resulting in harder ice and slower ice production. Turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise for a warmer setting and faster ice production.
-
Replace the front grille and tighten the two screws to secure it in place.
Ice Production
When the ice bucket is full, the ice maker mold will shut off. However, the
refrigeration system will continue to cool and maintain the ice cube supply.
Important: Do not place cans or bottles in the ice compartment because
they will freeze.
- Due to fast freezing, ice cubes may appear “cloudy.” This is trapped air in the water and does not affect the taste or quality of the ice.
- “Hollow” ice cubes may result from fast freezing under certain climatic conditions such as high humidity. This is not an indication of a problem with the ice maker.
- Ice production can be interrupted by raising the wire shut-off arm into an upright and locked position. The unit will maintain its temperature for ice storage.
Important:
-
If you are not intending to use the ice maker and turn the supply valve off, it is imperative
to raise the bin arm of the ice maker. Failure to raise the bin arm may result in damage to the water valve. -
Although the unit has been tested and cleaned at the factory, due to long-term transit and storage, the first batch of cubes must be discarded.
-
Never turn the water supply tap off when the ice maker is running.
-
Never touch the ice maker mold when the unit is running!
-
Except to take ice from the unit, keep the door closed to reduce melting and ensure proper ice formation.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Caution: The ice maker must be thoroughly cleaned if it has been left
unused for a long time. Carefully follow any instructions provided for
cleaning or use of sanitizing solution. Do not leave any solution inside the
ice maker after cleaning.
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top
performance, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on
normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets, or
there are other special considerations.
-
Periodically vacuum dust and dirt from the condenser, which is located behind the grille at
the bottom front of the unit. -
Regularly inspect the plumbing connections to ensure that no leaks are present.
Note: Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is noticed; objects
like wine or beer bottles are unsanitary.
Important:
- Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet.
- Never unplug the unit by pulling on the cord. Grasp the plug and pull it out firmly.
Exterior Cleaning
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water
solution such as one (1) ounce of dishwashing liquid mixed with two (2)
gallons of warm water. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a
soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to
prevent water spots. If the door panel is stainless steel, it can discolor
when exposed to chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless steel with a cloth
dampened with a mild detergent and warm water solution and a damp cloth. Never
use an abrasive cleaning agent.
Interior Cleaning
When necessary, defrost the unit and thoroughly clean the inside with mild
soap and water. Do not use electrical heating devices or sharp or pointed
tools when defrosting the ice maker. When defrosting the unit or leaving it
turned off, prop the door open. This allows the inside of the cabinet to air
dry, reducing the chance for mildew or mold to form and damage the ice maker’s
components.
Winterizing
Warning: Disconnect power at the source before working on the unit. Do
not winterize this unit with ANY type of anti-freeze; damage to the ice maker
mold coating will occur, invalidating the product’s Limited Warranty and
creating a potential health hazard.
- Shut off the water supply to the unit.
- Disconnect the water supply connector behind the front grille at the solenoid valve. Remove the white plastic tubing and nut from the bottom of the solenoid valve.
- Turn the power on. Allow the unit to run for an hour. Remove any cubes that may have been ejected during this period. Turn off the power and open the door to allow the inside to defrost. After it has defrosted, wipe it dry and leave the door open.
Recommissioning
Reconnect the water supply connector, white plastic tubing, and nut discussed
above in Winterizing, turn on the water, check for leaks, and then reconnect
the unit to power. After an initial cooldown of 45-60 minutes, the unit will
cycle approximately every 40 minutes.
Start-Up Turn on the water, check for leaks and then turn on the power.
Press the power switch (located just below the door). The fan and compressor
will normally turn on immediately, resulting in air circulation through the
grille and a faint hum from the compressor. If the machine was shut off while
in the ice harvesting cycle, it will take approximately five (5) minutes to
complete the cycle before the compressor and fan turn on. The interior
temperature will drop below freezing. The first harvest of ice will occur
within 60 minutes of startup. After the connection lines are purged of air,
normal harvesting and refilling will occur every 40 minutes or less under
normal conditions.
Condenser Cleaning
A dirty or clogged condenser prevents proper airflow, reduces ice-making
capacity, and causes higher than recommended operating temperatures that may
lead to component failure. Has the condenser been cleaned at least once every
six (6) months?
-
Unplug the ice maker.
-
Remove the two (2) screws on the front cover and gently
remove the cover. -
Use the brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner to remove dirt and lint from the condenser and the surrounding compartment.
-
Replace the front cover and screws.
-
Plugin the ice maker.
Warning: DO NOT touch the condenser fins. They are sharp and can be easily damaged.
