Introduction
This manual includes information for the
installation, operation and maintenance of the
GEMU090 residential ice machine.
The GEMU090 was developed to offer fans of
Ice-O-Matic’s Pearl Ice form the ability to have that
ice in their homes. Previously pearl Ice was only
available in commercial establishments, where it
developed a strong following because of the
chewable nature of the ice. This machine makes
authentic pearl ice, using the same process as the
larger commercial machines.
