INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NORMAL SOUNDS
Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Hard surfaces like the floor and walls can make
the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to
you and what may be making them.
Ratting noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line, items stored on top of the ice
maker can also make noises.
The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
Water running from the evaporator to the water reservoir may make a splashing sound.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your ice maker.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.
During the harvest cycle, you may hear the sound of ice cubes falling into the ice basket
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your ice maker if
you minimize the number of times the ice maker cover is opened. If the power is going to be OFF for a longer peri-
od of time, you need to take the proper steps to disconnect your appliance. Failure to unplug the ice maker could
result in electrical shock or personal injury.
