SERVICE INFORMATION
THE
FOLLOWING
OPERATIONS
MUST
BE
IMPLEMENTED SOLELY BY OUR “ICEMATIC” QUALIFIED
PERSONNEL IN YOUR AREA (fig. 2).
1) Verify that the water supply valve is open, then plug in the
machine and switch on the main switch; the appliance
starts-up in automatic mode (fig. 14) after having pressed
the ON/OFF start button (fig. 22).
2) Verify that the water reaches the tray, the float stops the
water before the overflow and that there are no leaks in
the system and in the water channels. The normal level of
water inside the tray is about 5/10 mm from the upper
edge (fig. 17).
The level of water can be adjusted by rotating the
microfloat or the water sensor on the slot on the relative
support after having loosened fastening screw 1 (fig. 17).
This adjustment must be implemented after having
disconnected the power supply.
3) Verify that there is no abnormal vibration due to loose
screws.
4) Always stop the appliance before implementing any
operations to resolve water leaks, tighten screws, etc.
5) Verify an ice production cycle ensuring that the cubes are
conveyed into the container.
6) Verify that the container sensor functions properly: place
an ice cube on the bulb inside the container; the appliance
should stop within 1 minute and restart automatically
shortly after removing it.
7) Replace the cover previously removed.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Use a cloth dampened with a specific chlorine-free product for
stainless steel to clean the structure.
N.B.
Disconnect the electrical power supply from the
appliance to perform maintenance and cleaning operations.
CLEANING THE AIR CONDENSER
To make the most of your appliance in terms of efficiency and
durability, the air filter at the front of the machine must be
cleaned every week (refer to fig. 23). The filter is removed by
simply extracting it (refer to fig. 22). Simply wash the filter with
a water jet of warm water and dry it before setting it back in
place.
Do not use brushes or blunt objects to clean the filter.
It is absolutely forbidden to operate the producer without the
air filter to prevent malfunctioning.
CLEANING THE WATER INLET FILTER
Close the water shut-off valve of the appliance, disconnect the
water inlet pipe and remove the filter screen that is on the
water inlet electrovalve with a pair of pliers. Clean the screen
with a water jet and reassemble it into its place.
CLEANING THE CONTAINER
Remove the ice from the container. Clean inside the container
with a sponge dampened with warm water and a little sodium
bicarbonate; rinse with clean water and dry carefully.
THE WASH AND SANITATION CYCLE
The machine has been equipped with a “Self Cleaning”
function in order to remedy the problems deriving from the
hardness of the supply water and therefore, the formation of
impurities on the components and parts that are in contact
with the water.
Thanks to the cleaning action of a specific product, which
comes in the form of powder in a sachet and a dosing bottle,
this function keeps the machine clean and sanitised from
limescale and deposits.
To guarantee proper cleaning of the ice maker one
recommends carrying out the wash cycle at least 3-4 times a
year, according to the hardness of the water supply.
IMPLEMENTING THE WASH AND SANITATION CYCLE.
Adopt proper precautions when handling
citric acid whilst preparing the solution
(water+ citric acid, see the table). Wear
protective gloves and goggles.
Turn the machine off. Remove all ice from the container. Using
the specific product and the plastic bottle, prepare the solution
by dissolving the powder in warm water (max. 40°C),
according to the quantities shown on the attached table.
Mix well whilst ensuring that no lumps are
formed.
Switch the machine on by pressing the
ON/OFF button whilst keeping the RESET
button pressed (see img. 22). Press the reset
button using a pin of suitable diameter to
enter the appropriate hole.
Both LEDs will flash quickly. Open the
deposit hatch, wait for the tray to go back into
closing position. Insert the cannula into the
bottle throughout its length in the appropriate
hole (see img. 24) and drain all the previously prepared
descaling mixture, applying pressure with your hands on the
bottle. Close the hatch and repress the Reset button to start
the WASHING cycle.
Once the wash cycle is started, LED flashing will slow down.
During the wash function, rinse the container thoroughly.
The duration of the washing cycle is of approximately 3 hours.
Once the descaling function has started it is not possible to
interrupt the washing cycle. In case of a power-cut, the
machine resumes from where it had stopped.
At the end of the washing and rinsing cycle the machine
restarts in the cold cycle.
For all extraordinary maintenance and/or repairs (mechanical,
cooling and electrical parts) that require adjustments and/or
components to be replaced, always refer to an
authorised
service centre
.
After a long period of inactivity one recommends to perform a
cleaning/descaling cycle before commencing ice production.
