2. Connect the coach to an external (city water)
source or leave water pump switch on con-
tinuously to provide a constant water supply.
3. Be sure the ice bin is in place and the ice
maker’s automatic shut-off arm (wire) is in
the down (automatic) position. If the arm is
up, the ice maker will not operate.
4. Start the refrigerator the day before ice cubes
are needed. When the refrigerator is started
(from room temperature), it is normal to take
as long as 24 hours to become cold enough
to make the first batch of ice cubes.
5. Always discard the first batch of cubes made
in a new ice maker. The new plumbing lines
and connections may cause discolored and
bad tasting ice. The ice maker will make up
to 3 lbs. of ice in 24 hours, if the freezer tem-
perature is 14 F or below.
6. To remove the ice bin, raise the automatic
shut-off arm (off). When returning the ice
bin to the freezer, remember to lower the
shut-off arm (on). If the arm is up, the ice
maker will not operate.
Shut-Down of Ice Maker
To turn the ice maker off, simply raise the
shutoff arm (wire).
Winterizing the Ice Maker
When winterizing, make sure the water line
is completely drained by following this proce-
dure.
1. Drain coach water lines. See Sect. 10.
2. Unscrew the water supply line from the bot-
tom of the water inlet valve and drain any
water left in the line. This connection is
located in the refrigerator service compart-
ment on the outside of the coach. (See
Refrigerator Service Access Compartment
on the following page.)
3. Let the ice maker run through a cycle, then
raise the shut-off arm.
4. Be sure water has drained from ice maker
supply line, then reconnect to inlet valve.
Start-Up (Removing from Storage)
1. Close all drain valves.
2. Turn the water supply on.
3. Be sure the ice bin is in place and the auto-
matic shutoff arm is down.
4. Let the refrigerator cool down to ice making
temperature. Remember, this can take up to
24 hours.
5. Let the ice maker cycle and dump the first
batch of ice.
