SETTING THE DISPENSING SELECTOR

Setting the dispensing time

It’s possible to modify the dispensing time to 5, 10
or 15 seconds. To modify the original setting time
(5 seconds):

a) Push and hold the 4

th

switch (CONTINUOUS)

for 10 seconds until the first 3 lights start to blink,

b) Push & release the 1

st

switch (ICE) for a 5

second dispense.

c) Push & release the 2

nd

switch (ICE AND

WATER) for a 10 second dispense.

d) Push & release the 3

rd

switch (WATER) for a 15

second dispense.

The unit resumes a default dispense setting (Ice,
Ice and Water or Water) after each dispense.

To modify the resume mode (from factory set to
ICE) push the desired switch (ICE, ICE AND
WATER or WATER ) for 5 seconds.

H. CHECK OF THE DISPENSING OPERATING
MECHANISM

To check for the correct operation of the
dispensing mechanism:

a) First, select the Dispensing Mode by pushing
the proper switch.

b) Place a glass or a carafe in front of the two
Optical Dispensing Devices.

c) The dispensing drive motor and/or the water
solenoid valve starts. Ice and/or water is
discharged through the bottom plastic spout.

The drive motor and/or the water solenoid valve
remains in operation (per dispensing time settings)
unless the glass or carafe is removed.

Push the CONTINUOUS switch and check again
for the dispensing mechanism operation per the
steps above.

The drive motor and/or the water solenoid valve
will remain in operation until the glass or carafe is
removed.

I. If connected, remove the refrigerant service
gauges and re-attach the service panels.

J. Instruct the owner/user on the general operation
of the ice machine and its required cleaning and
care.

Note: If all the dispensing
selector lights are blinking, the
main control board (on the
right side of the unit) has
sensed a problem with the
machine's operation. Check
the main board's diagnostic
lights for further information.
