Operating Method
1.
Switch on the Power switch on the
front panel. The light will be on. The
ice
maker
will start working
automatically and feeding water.
2.
After the first feeding of the water,
the machine will automatically go to
the ice making stage, and the sound
of water spraying will be heard.
3.
Ice will be harvested to the ice
storage bin. When the storage bin is
filled with ice cubes, the ice maker
will automatically stop working. The
machine will restart making ice once
the storage bin is less than full.
NOTE:
- Although the unit has been tested at factory, due to long-term transit and storage, the first
batch of cubes must be discarded.
- Never turn the water supply tap off when the icemaker is working.

There are two distinct cycles: freeze and harvest.
Freeze
: During the freeze cycle the compressor is pumping refrigerant, the fan

Harvest:
During the harvest cycle; the compressor is still operating, the water
pump has stopped and the hot gas valve and water inlet valve are energized. The
