Initial Start-Up

Once installation and leveling is complete, the unit is 
ready for initial start-up and operation. The Display panel 
is located inside the unit, on the top (see 

Figure 46

). 

1. Open the door and remove the cover in front of the 

evaporator by gently compressing and pulling 
forward. This will enable you to observe the water 
flow over the evaporator.

2. Check that the overflow tube is inserted securely into 

the water trough.

3. Press the POWER icon (

Figure 46

1

)and hold for 

approximately five seconds until the °F symbol flashes 
and release. The water fill valve will energize and fill 
the water reservoir. The water fill valve shuts off after 
approximately 180 seconds (3 minutes). The compressor 
begins to operate.

4. Watch the water flow over the evaporator assembly (ice 

cube tray) to familiarize yourself with the operation. 
Upon initial start-up, water flow over the evaporator 
may be uneven. This may cause uneven sized cubes or 
water spilling into the ice storage bin. This is a normal 
situation and will correct itself within the first 24 hours 
of operation. 

5. Replace the evaporator cover. 

6. Allow unit to run for at least 24 hours to stabilize 

before making any ice adjustments.

IMPORTANT

It is possible that dirt or scale will dislodge in the water 
line. Always throw away all ice cubes made during the 
first two to three hours of operation.

About Settings

All settings are factory preset. No adjustments should be 
necessary at this time. For information about Ice Cube 
Thickness, see the Use and Care Guide.

Start-Up Troubleshooting

Problem

Q:

Unit does not appear to turn on when Power icon is 
pressed.

Solution

A:

Remember that the compressor will not operate until the 
water has been filling for about 3 minutes. Make sure unit 
is plugged in and outlet has power (circuit breaker has 
not tripped). If the unit is equipped with a drain pump, 
check that the drain line is not obstructed — unit will shut 
down due to the safety design of the pump if water 
cannot drain.

Problem

Q:

Water does not appear to be flowing into unit.

Solution

A:

Check that the water is connected and turned on, the line 
is not obstructed and the overflow tube is inserted 
securely into water trough.

Problem

Q:

The unit has been operating for 24 hours and water is still 
not flowing evenly over evaporator.

Solution

A:

Level unit for even water flow. Uneven water flow will 
reduce ice rate and cause water to spill in ice bin.
