Operation

 

Loading Ice

:

 

Allow the Vending Machine to reach operating 
temperatures before loading with packaged ice.  
 
The Vending Machine requires good air flow for 
effective circulation and cooling.  Avoid stacking 
ice above the top edge of the air ducts that are 
installed on the walls of the cabinet interior. 
Blocking off these air ducts may restrict the even 
distribution of cold air throughout the cabinet which 
may result in warm spots developing within the 
cabinet. Also, do not stack ice high enough to block 
off the evaporator fans in the unit cooler assembly. 
The evaporator fans are intended to pull warm air 
entering the cabinet into the unit cooler and then 
push that warm air across the surface of the 
evaporator coil. This process removes the heat prior 
to distributing the air into the cabinet.  

Stocking Instructions: 

1.

 

To unlock the doors turn the Doors key to the 
Unlock position - Horizontal 

2.

 

Fill the Vending Machine 

3.

 

Close the doors and turn the Doors key to the 
Lock position 

4.

 

Check the doors to verify they are locking   

Temperature and Defrost 
Control:

 

The Vending Machine comes equipped with the 
standard electronic control. 

 
 
 
 

      

 
 

Operating Mode Display: 

 

Snowflake “ON” – compressor enabled in 
run cycle; control displays current cabinet 
temperature. 

 

Snowflake “Flashing” – anti short cycle 
delay enabled to protect the compressor 
from trying to start too frequently. 

 

Melting Snowflake “ON” – defrost in 
progress, control displays the letters “DE” 

 

To view the control’s programmed “Set 
Point” (cut-out temperature): press and 
release the “Set Key.” 

 

To initiate a manual defrost cycle: press and 
hold the “Manual Defrost Key” for more 
than 2 seconds. 

 
Note:

 Manual defrost will not initiate if the cabinet 

temperature is above 40 degrees F. 

 

The electronic control combines the functions of 
both a mechanical thermostat and a defrost timer 
into a single control. The control also offers the 
consumer the capability of monitoring the 
operational status of the Vending Machine via the 
icon and digital temperature display (located on the 
face of the control). The controls have been 
programmed by the manufacturer to operate the 
Vending Machine within the design parameters of 
the refrigeration system. The set-point (cut-out) for 
these controls has been factory programmed for 16 
degrees F, with a differential of 8 degrees F. Should 
the user desire to alter the Set-Point, the new set-
points should not /- 4 degrees of the 
original factory setting. It is not recommended to 
alter any of the parameter programming in the 
controls without first consulting the manufacturer.  
 
The control is located on top of the merchandise 
and contains two thermal-couple probes. Both probe 
wires are routed through the cabinet’s suction line 
hole and into the unit cooler assembly, which is 
mounted to the interior ceiling of the cabinet.  
 
The air sensing probe (“P1”) routes through the unit 
cooler and has its’ sensing bulb secured to the outer, 
left-hand wall of the unit cooler. Probe “P1” 
monitors the air temperature in the Ice Breaker at 
that location. During the normal operation of the 
control, the digital display will show the cabinet 
temperature at the probe “P1” location.
