Using your ice maker How the ice maker works... 1. Water is constantly circulated over a freez- ing plate. As the water freezes into ice the min- erals in the water are rejected. This produces a clear sheet of ice with a low mineral content 3. The water containing the rejected minerals is drained after each freezing cycle.
2. To start the normal ice making cycle, turn the Cycle Control Knob to “ON:’ 3. To stop ice maker operation, turn Cycle Control Knob to “OFF.” The “CLEAN” setting is used whenever solutions are circulated through the ice maker for clean- ing.
Cleaning and caring for your ice maker Periodically inspect and clean the ice maker to keep it operating at peak efficiency and to prevent premature failure of system components. Both the ice making system and the air cooled condenser need to be cleaned regularly.
1. Place the Cycle Control Knob in the “OFF” position. 2. Remove the two thumb screws and slide the ice cutter grid forward, out of the two slots near the water pan. 3. Unplug the electrical harness. CAUTION: Any ice on the grid should be melted under running warm water.
Cleaning the interior components 1. Turn the Cycle Control Knob to “OFF” and disconnect the electrical power supply to the machine. Open the storage bin door and remove any ice that is in the bin, 2. Remove ice retainer baffle by flexing it and then slide it off the studs.
Filtering and treating water In most areas it will be beneficial to filter or treat the water being supplied to the ice machine. It can improve the reliability of the machine, reduce water system maintenance and produce the best quality of ice.
