Operation
HOW THE MACHINE MAKES ICE
There are two distinct cycles: freeze and harvest. The freeze cycle happens when water is flow to the
evaporator surface. The harvest cycle is when the ice is released and water enters the machine. A complete
cycle takes about 20 minutes.
Freeze:
During the freeze cycle the compressor is pumping refrigerant, the fan motor is blowing air, and the
water pump is circulating water. When the evaporator surface gets setting temperature, the ice maker will stop
the freeze cycle and begin the harvest.
Harvest:
During the harvest cycle the compressor is still operating, but the water pump have stopped. The hot
gas valve have been energized; The valve open and warm up the freezing surface, allowing the cubes to fall
into the bin. The freeze cycle will restart.
HOW ADJUST THE SIZE OF ICE CUBES
1. Press and hold the “Adjust” button for at least 3 seconds. The unit
will enter the Ice Size Adjustment mode. The “ICE Making” LED
(green) will be blinking continuously during the ice size adjustment.
Release the button when the LED blinks continuously to adjust the
ice size.
2. While in the Ice Size Adjustment mode, press the “Clean” button or
the “Mode” button for the desired ice size.
Smaller ice setting:
By pressing the “Clean” button, you can decrease the size of the ice
cubes. The “ICE FULL” LED (red) will flash as you lower the ice size
and will finally be blinking at the setting of smallest ice size.
Larger ice setting:
By pressing the “Mode” button, you can increase the size of the ice
cubes. The “ICE HARVEST” LED (yellow) will flash as the larger size is
set and will blink when the setting of largest ice size has been reached.
After 10 seconds without any operation, the unit will automatically memorize the current state and return to the
previous mode.
NOTE:
•
If during the ice size adjustment mode the “ICE FULL”, “ICE MAKING” and “ICE HARVEST” LEDS blink all
at once, this indicates that the unit is in the regular (middle) setting of the ice size.
•
When the machine is in the cleaning stage or ice full stage, the ice size adjustment mode cannot be
accessed.
