Start-up
INITIAL START-UP
Once installation and leveling is complete, the unit is ready for initial start-up and
operation. Your unit is shipped in the OFF position, however, you may turn it ON/
OFF using the cycle selector switch located in the access panel above the grille
(see
Figure 26
).
1
Plug the appliance cord into a 115V polarized and
grounded electrical outlet.
2
Open the water supply valve in the main water source.
3
Place the cycle selector switch in the ON position. The
water fill valve will energize and fill the water reservoir.
The water fill valve shuts off after 180 seconds. The
compressor begins to operate and water flows over the
evaporator assembly (ice cube tray).
4
Upon initial start-up, water flow over the evaporator may
be uneven. This may cause uneven sized cubes or
water spilling into the ice storage bin. This is a normal
situation and will correct itself within the first 24 hours of
operation. After the initial start-up period, the water will
cascade evenly over the evaporator.

It is possible that dirt or scale will dislodge in the water line. Always throw away all ice
cubes made during the first two to three hours of operation.
