NOTE
The connections out of the water valves are John Guest fittings. These fittings provide a positive
connection without the need for special tools or hose fittings.
To release the hose from the fitting, depress the ring directly adjacent to the hose. While
pressing the ring in, pull the hose from the fitting. When reinstalling the hose, make sure that
the hose is cut squarely and that there are no nicks or scars in the hose end.
Reverse osmosis systems can reduce water pressure to the point that poor fill speeds may
become a consumer complaint. To minimize the overall effect, the bypass cap should be used
instead of the filter. If this does not provide sufficient fill rates, the next option is to bypass the
first valve assembly that provides water to the filter.
Move the copper inlet from the primary valves to the secondary valves. This valve assembly
will directly feed the icemaker and the dispenser with a minimum of tubing. Even with the filter
eliminated from the water flow, the bypass cap must be in place to allow the water valves to
energize.
As with all dispenser systems, if you experience frosting in the dispenser chute, it is an
indication of air infiltration around the fountain door (chute flapper). Check for burs or flashing
around all components and gently remove if present. To help locate air leaks, shine a flashlight
down the chute and look for light leaks around the exterior of the fountain door.

Water Dispenser System (continued)
The dispenser control panel allows the consumer to select between water, crushed ice or cubed ice. The
appropriate icon will illuminate to indicate the current setting. The freezer door switch must be closed
for the dispenser to operate. This will prevent ice dispensing without the door closed. All operation of
the dispenser is suspended while the door is opened. The consumer cannot change selections until the
door is closed. The dispenser cavity light will not illuminate when the door is opened.
The other controls on the dispenser panel activate the light and the dispenser lock. To activate the light,
touch the light icon. To activate the dispenser lock, tap the lock icon three times in rapid succession.
When locked, the lock icon will illuminate. To deactivate the lock tap the lock icon three times in rapid
succession.
The control panel is touch sensitive glass. There are no actual switches in the control panel. All
operations and requests are transmitted via the data lines and the Main Control board changes modes
of operations. As an example; touching the light icon sends a signal to the Main Control board. The
Main Control board activates the light and the illumination for the icon.
The auger is controlled by the Main Control board. When the dispenser switch is activated, the Main
Control board will energize the dispenser auger motor. For crushed ice, the auger drives the cubes
through the crusher blades. For ice cubes, the dispenser cube solenoid is energized. The cube solenoid
opens the cube door allowing the cubes to bypass the crushing blades.
