13. OPERATION PRINCIPLE AND REPAIR METHOD OF ICEMAKER

13-1 OPERATION PRINCIPLE

13-1-1 Operation Principle of IceMaker

Power On

Start Position

• Adjusts EJECTOR to 

Start Position

with power on.

Icemaking

Mode

• Waits until water becomes ICE after starting the

icemaking operation.

Harvest

Mode

• Runs MOTOR to drop ice from the tray into the ICE BIN.

(During harvest mode, check if the ice bin is full)

Park Position

• Reaches Start Position

Fill

• Performs 

Ice Making Mode

after supplying water by

operating the SOLENOID in ICE VALVE.

Test Mode

• To operate LINE and SERVICE, press and hold the 

Fill Key

for 3 seconds. The icemaker will run through 

3 stages: 

Harvest

Fill

Icemaking

.

1. Turning the Icemaker stop switch off (O) stops the ice making function.
2. Setting the Icemaker switch to OFF and then turning it back on will reset the icemaker control.
