CAUTION
If the appliance was shipped, handled, or stored in other than an upright position for any period of time, allow the appliance to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the appliance in immediately may cause damage to internal parts.

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 fol-low 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.`

ELECTRICAL

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 ungrounded electrical supply.
• Do not remove the grounding prong from the power cord.
• Do not use an adapter.
• 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 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 ac- cordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances (see figure below). 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 nui-sance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut down. GFCI’s are generally not used on circuits with power equip-ment that must run unattended for long periods of time, un-less required to meet local building codes and ordinances.

INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE

CAUTION
If the appliance was shipped, handled, or stored in other than an upright position for any period of time, allow the appliance to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the appliance in immediately may cause damage to internal parts.

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.

CAUTION

Outdoor Installation
Do not install in a location where the ice machine will be exposed to direct sun exposure as this may result in
unsatisfactory performance.

Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your appliance. We recommend a location where the ice
machine 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 55 to 90°F (13 to 32°C) for built in ice machines and 55 to 100°F (13 to 38°C) for freestanding ice machines. Ice machines will not perform correctly in ambient temperatures less than 55°F (13°C).

CAUTION
The warranty is voided if product is used in an ambient temperature of 40°F (5°C) or below.

Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appliance. Keep this area open and clear of any
obstructions. Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around the appliance as long as the front grille
remains unobstructed. Overlay door models with articulated hinges are intended for built-in applications only.

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 air flow will result in increased energy usage, loss of cooling capacity and low ice production. 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 air flow may be restricted.

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) and lower (by turning the leveling leg in). Cabinet height adjustment dimensions are shown in the table on the next page.

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 surface check the appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.

The front grille screws may be loosened to raise and lower the grille to the desired height. When adjustment is
complete tighten the two front grille screws.

INSTALLING THE WATER SUPPLY

Water Supply

CAUTION
Observe and follow all local building codes when installing this appliance. This ice machine must be connected to a potable cold water supply line. delivering water pressure between a minimum of 20 psi and a maximum of 120 psi. Use ¹ ” copper tubing for your water supply which is available at any local hardware or plumbing supply store. Route the ¹ ” copper tubing to suit your installation being sure not to kink the tubing. Purchase enough copper tubing length to allow a coil to be formed behind the unit for a “service loop” which will allow the appliance to be pulled out from the installation for servicing or cleaning. Connect the copper tubing to the “top side” of a cold water pipe to prevent the ice-maker from plugging with sediment. A shutoff valve is recommended on the water supply line to ease servicing the appliance.

NOTE: A SELF-PIERCING TYPE VALVE IS NOT RECOMMENDED as they are prone to clogging with sediment which will create pressure drop reducing the water supply to the unit. Connect the copper tubing water supply to the water valve inlet with a 1/4″ compression nut fitting.

IMPORTANT: Secure the water supply line to the back of the cabinet with the screw and strain relief clamp provided in the corner of the back panel.

Make certain all connections are watertight after installation. Form the tubing so that it will not vibrate
against the cabinet body or kink when your appliance is moved in and out of position. This ice machine is designed to make clear ice from the majority of water sources on a daily basis. If your results are unsatisfactory, your water may need to be filtered or treated. A water specialist can recommend proper water treatment.

CAUTION

To prevent water leaks:

• The water line fitting is to be used with copper tubing only. Do not use with plastic tubing.
• Do not use any thread sealers on this water line fitting.

NOTE
Reverse osmosis, (RO), water, softened water, and deionized water are not recommended as they can adversely affect the quality and quantity of the ice.

INSTALLING THE DRAIN PLUMBING

Optional Drain Pump.
An optional drain pump is available if you have purchased an ice machine without one and do not have access to a gravity drain. Installation instructions are provided with the optional drain pump. Contact Marvel customer service at 616-754-5601 or your dealer for ordering.

CAUTION
This drain pump is designed to be installed in Marvel ice machines only and approved for use with water only.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard
Risk of electrical shock or personal injury could  occur due to moving components, if the machine compartment access cover is removed before unplugging the ice machine power cord.

ICE MAKER OPERATION

The Ice Making Process
Your ice machine is unique in how it forms ice with fractional freezing to form a slab of ice that is clear and has less dissolved solids than the water it is produced from. This is accomplished by running water over the cold
evaporator plate which gradually freezes the water to produce the ice slab. Pure water freezes first, leaving the clear ice.When the ice slab reaches the correct thickness, the ice sheet is released and slides onto the grid cutter. Here, the ice slab is cut into squares by the grid cutter’s heated wires. The water containing the dissolved minerals is drained after each freezing cycle. Fresh water enters the machine for the next ice making cycle.

The ice machine will keep producing ice until the ice machine’s bin is full and will restart automatically when
ice needs to be replenished in the bin. The ice bin is not refrigerated, and some melting will occur by design to preserve the ice quality and clarity. Allow your ice machine to run for 24-48 hours to accumulate ice in the ice machine’s bin.

The bin level sensor is located in the ice bin, it senses when the ice supply is low or full and starts or stops the ice making process accordingly.

NOTE
If the water supply is turned off to the ice machine be sure to set the electronic control to the “OFF” position or remove power to the unit.

Ice Production

In normal mode the ice machine will produce up to 39 pounds (17.7 kg) of clear ice in a 24-hour period when
installed in a 72°F ambient with a 55°F water supply. In “ECO” mode (see page 16) the ice machine will produce up to 29 pounds (13.2 kg) of clear ice in the 24 hour period.

NOTE
“Initial” ice production and ice accumulated in the storage bin will vary significantly. This is normal. During the first 24-hours of operation the unit will produce up to 39 lbs of ice at the above ambient and water temperature conditions, but when starting with an empty ice storage bin, the storage bin may only accumulate up to 18 lbs of ice. By design, the ice storage bin is maintained at a temperature slightly above freezing to allow the stored ice to slowly melt, to preserve the ice quality and clarity and assure a constant supply of fresh ice. As ice is accumulated in the bin, the ice production rate will overcome the ice melt and the storage bin will fill to capacity.

New Sounds

The ice machine will make sounds that are different than your household refrigerator. Because these sounds are new to you they may be of a concern but are most likely normal. The ice production process will make noises that are not typical in a refrigeration product, ice falling onto hard surfaces, water cascading across the evaporator, and valves opening and closing. Following are some of the sounds that you may hear:
A buzzing sound will be heard when the water valve opens to fill the water reservoir. A rattling noise which could be water flowing through the water line. A splashing sound when water is flowing over the evaporator plate and into the water reservoir. A “thud” when the ice slab is released from the evaporator plate and slides onto the grid cutter. “Clicks” when the cubes fall into the ice storage bin. A gurgling sound which is refrigerant flowing in the ice machine. An air noise from the condenser fan.

CARE AND CLEANING

Refer to your cleaning solution instructions to determine the proper amount of cleaning solution to add based on 2 quarts (1.9 liters) of water. Lift fascia door up to access evaporator plate. Pour the cleaning solution slowly on the evaporator plate so it flows down into the fresh water reservoir.

Replace the splash shield if removed. After the cleaning cycle is completed, verify that all build-up has been removed. If not repeat the clean cycle procedure.

CARE AND CLEANING

Front Grille
Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air flow openings in front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year, brush or vacuum lint and dirt from the front grille area

CAUTION

SHOCK HAZARD:
Disconnect electrical power from the appliance before cleaning with soap and water.

Cabinet
The painted cabinet can be washed with either a mild soap and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER use abrasive scouring cleaners.

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 sever 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 contaminants. Additionally, any mounting hardware that is showing signs of corrosion should be replaced.

Interior
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Do NOT use an abrasive cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner, undiluted detergent or chlorine based cleaners.

Care of Appliance

1. Avoid leaning on the door, you may bend the door hinges or tip the appliance.
2. Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming or mopping near the front of the appliance. Damage to the grille can occur.
3. Periodically clean the interior of the appliance as needed.
4. Periodically check and/or clean the front grille as needed.

In the Event of a Power Failure

If a power failure occurs, try to correct it as soon as possible. Minimize the number of door openings while the power is off so as not to adversely affect the appliance’s temperature.

Light assembly replacement
All models use LED lamps to illuminate the interior of the  appliance. This component is very reliable, but should one fail, contact a qualified service technician for replacement of the LED.

Energy Saving Tips

1. The following suggestions will minimize the cost of operating your ice machine appliance sources
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Assure the front grille vents at front of the ice machine beneath the door are not obstructed and kept clean to allow ventilation for the refrigeration system to expel heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not shared with other appliances).
