Initial Start Up
1.
Turn on the water supply.
2.
Switch on the electrical power.
3.
Push and release the On/Off switch to start the
machine. The Ice Making light next to the
On/Off switch will glow Green.
4.
Water will begin to flow into the unit. When the
reservoir is full, water will start to drain from the
machine. After a few minutes the compressor,
water pump and fan motor will begin to operate
and the first ice making cycle will have begun.
No adjustments are needed.
After about a half hour, ice will fall into the ice
storage bin. The machine makes 24 cubes per
batch. It is normal for the first batches of ice to
melt, that continues until the bin has cooled. It will
take 8 to 10 hours of continuous run time to fill the
ice bin. When the bin is full of ice, the ice machine
will shut off. It will automatically restart when the
ice level falls, either from use or normal meltage.
