Ice Machines
NOTICE
• Discard all ice produced in the first harvest.
• Should power to the unit be interrupted during the self-
clean cycle, the complete cleaning cycle will repeat after
power is restored.
Refresh Kit
Due to variations in water quality or inadequate maintenance your
unit may become excessively coated in lime scale or calcium.
U-Line offers a cost effective refresh kit which replaces many interior
components and will return your unit to like new condition. Refresh
kits may be ordered from your local distributor and installed by your
local service company. For information on your local distributor or

Ice Cube Thickness Adjustment
Interval - As Required
1. See Ice Adjust section (p. 5) of the U-Select Cotnrol chapter for
directions on how to adjust ice thickness.
NOTICE
Ice thickness adjustment should only be made one
increment at a time. Allow ice maker production to stabilize
for 24 hours before rechecking ice thickness.
2. Remove all ice from the storage bin.
Ice cubes in any given batch will vary, so it is necessary to choose
cubes from the sample area for comparison when making
adjustments. If further adjustments are desired, repeat Steps 1
through 4.
The ice cube thickness is factory set for best overall performance.
The factory setting is designed to maintain an ice bridge of
approximately 1/16" to 1/8" under normal conditions, resulting in a
dimple of approximately 1/4" to 1/2" in depth. A fuller cube with less
of a dimple results in a thicker ice bridge. As the ice bridge thickens,
the tendency for the cubes to stay together as a slab increases. A
bridge thicker than 1/8" may cause cubes to overfill the ice bucket.
