4. When you see antifreeze in the drum, turn the power “off.” Then advance the Program
Selector knob to “Spin.”
5. Turn the power “on” and allow the drum to spin for about 30 seconds.
6. Turn the power “off.” This completes the process.
Depending on whether your particular motor home has a Dometic refrigerator with an optional ice maker
or not, there are some steps to be taken in winterizing the optional ice maker associated with that
refrigerator. For the optional ice maker, the proper steps to be taken are these:
Dometic Refrigerator Ice Maker ( optional )
1. Shut off the water supply to the ice maker.
2. Place a shallow pan under the water solenoid valve.
3. Remove the inlet fitting to the ice-maker water solenoid valve. Then drain the water from the
supply line.
4. Remove the plastic nut and water line from the outlet side of the water solenoid valve. Then
drain the water from that line.
Note : Do not lose the metal insert from the plastic water line.
One recommended way to secure this insert is to place it into a “zip lock” bag, seal the bag,
punch a small hole through the top of the bag above the zip-lock, insert any type of “twist-tie”
(i.e., paper-coated, flexible metal wire) through the hole, and then secure that bag to the outlet line
for safekeeping.
5. Connect a source of compressed air (up to 20 psig, maximum) onto the inlet fitting of the water
solenoid valve. Apply AC power to the solenoid valve for forcing the ice-maker mold assembly
through several harvest cycles.
6. Remove the plastic cover from the mold assembly. The bail arm must be in the “down” (or
“on”) position.
7. Start the harvest cycle with a flat-blade screwdriver inserted into the center of the small gear.
8. Turn the gear counterclockwise (CCW), when the hold switch closes, the mold assembly will
continue to operate through the harvest cycle. During the water-fill sequence of the harvest cycle,
the compressed air will blow out the water trapped in the solenoid valve.
9. Repeat the harvest cycle operation (i.e., steps 7 and 8) several times. Note: Damage to the
solenoid valve can occur if the AC power is applied for more than 20 seconds.
