c) Freeze Cycle
LED 1 is on.
Comp and FMR remain energized, PM energizes or remains energized
depending on harvest pump timer (S4 dip switch 7) setting. FM and LLV energize.
HGV and X1 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later)
de-energize. For the first 5 minutes, CB will not accept a signal from F/S. This minimum
5-minute freeze time is short cycle protection for Comp. At the end of 5 minutes, F/S
assumes control. As ice builds on the evaporator, the water level in the tank lowers. The
freeze cycle continues until F/S opens and terminates the cycle. There is a 15 second
delay before CB acknowledges an open F/S.
d) Pump-Out Cycle
LEDs 1, 3, and 2 are on.
LED 4 is on when S4 dip switch 3 & 4 are set to 3 off and 4 on.
For details, see "II.C.2.c) Pump-Out Timer (S4 dip switch 3 & 4)."
CAUTION! Do not
adjust S4 dip switch 3 & 4 to 3 off and 4 on. Adjustment to this position on this
model prevents the pump motor from rotating in the pump-out direction.
Comp
and FMR remain energized, HGV energizes, WV energizes if S4 dip switch 3 off and 4
on. LLV and FM de-energize. PM stops for 2 seconds then reverses, taking water from
the bottom of the tank and forcing pressure against the check valve seat allowing water
to go through the check valve and down the drain. At the same time, water flows through
the small tube to power flush F/S. When the pump-out timer terminates, the pump-out is
complete.
The first pump-out occurs after the 11th freeze cycle, then every 10th cycle thereafter.
The pump-out frequency control is factory set, and generally no adjustment is required.
However, where water quality is bad and the icemaker needs a pump-out more often, the
pump-out frequency can be adjusted. The pump-out frequency control (S4 dip switch 5 &
6) can be set to have a pump-out occur every cycle, or every 2, 5, or 10 cycles. Timing of
the first pump-out is dependent on S4 dip switch 5 & 6 settings. See the table below.

e) Harvest Cycle
Same as the initial harvest cycle. See "II.B.1.b) Initial Harvest Cycle."
Note: Unit continues to cycle until BC is satisfied or power is turned off. The unit always
restarts at the 1-minute fill cycle.
f) Shutdown
(1) Thermostatic Bin Control (KM-1301SAH-E)
When ice contacts the thermostatic BC bulb (BC open), thermostatic BC shuts down the
unit within 10 seconds. Thermostatic BC is factory set, and generally no adjustment is
required. However, adjustment may be needed in some conditions, particularly at higher
altitude locations.
