NOTICE
• Protect the floor when moving the icemaker to prevent damage to the floor.
• If using the optional drain pump (HS-5061), test its operation every time the
icemaker is cleaned and sanitized. See "IV.E. Optional Drain Pump HS-5061" for
details. If the optional drain pump is not operating properly, water could back up
and overflow, leading to costly water damage.
• To help ensure that the ice storage bin drain remains clear, follow the instructions
in "IV.C. Ice Storage Bin Drain" once every 3 months or as often as necessary for
conditions. If the ice storage bin drain becomes clogged, water could build up in
the bin and overflow, leading to costly water damage.
• If water collects in the bin and will not drain, turn off the icemaker and close the
water supply line shut-off valve. Call for service.
• Do not leave the icemaker on during extended periods of non-use, extended
absences, or in sub-freezing temperatures. To properly prepare the icemaker for
these occasions, follow the instructions in "V. Preparing the Icemaker for Periods
of Non-Use."
• Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure,
clear of obstruction.
• Do not place objects on top of the icemaker.
• The ice storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the ice storage
bin.
B. Startup
WARNING
All parts are factory-adjusted. Improper adjustments may adversely affect safety,
performance, component life, and warranty coverage.
NOTICE
• If the icemaker is turned off, wait for at least 3 minutes before restarting the
icemaker to prevent damage to the compressor.
• At startup, confirm that all internal and external connections are free of leaks.
1) Open the water supply line shut-off valve.
2) Make sure the control switch is in the "OFF" position. Plug the unit into the electrical
outlet.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch the control
switch or plug with damp hands. If you have to slide the unit back for a built-in
installation, make sure you do not damage or pinch the water supply line, drain line, or
power cord.
3) If required by sanitation code in your area, seal the perimeter where the machine
touches the floor with approved caulk compound in a smooth and easily cleanable
manner.
