3.Install a shut-off valve to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a
plain piece of copper tubing, attach a 1/4" O.D. compression union to the
tubing and remove the nut.
4.Thread the nuts of the supplied water supply hose to the tap and water
inlet valve. Access to the water inlet valve is through the opening in the
rear panel. Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half turn with a wrench.
5.Turn on the main water supply and tap. Check for leaks in the water
supply connection. Tighten all connections.
OPERATING THE UNIT
IMPORTANT: ENSURING ICE FRESHNESS AND QUALITY
Although the unit has been tested and cleaned at the factory, discard the
first few batches of ice cubes due to long-term transit and storage.
If you do not use the ice maker for long periods of time we recommend
emptying the ice bin periodically to ensure ice freshness.
This unit is a manual defrost freezer and will store the ice for long term but
over time the ice will get old.
OTHER OPERATING TIPS
• Keep the air intake and exhaust free of dust and lint to allow free air flow.
With hard water, cleaning may have to be more frequent.
• Never touch the evaporator when the unit is running.
• Keep the door closed to reduce ice melting and to promote proper ice
formation. Open the door only when taking ice from the appliance.
• Turn on the water supply tap before switching on the ice machine. Never
turn the water supply tap off when the ice machine is working.
ICE MACHINE PRODUCTION
The ice maker will continue to produce ice until ice in the bin is full and the
arm is raised on the ice maker. Once the ice is removed the arm can be
lower and the unit will continue to produce ice.
INITIAL START-UP OPERATION
• Plug in appliance into a 115/120v polarized and grounded wall electric
outlet
• Place the on-off switch in the "|" (On) Position
• Make sure the water supply is on. As soon as the inner mechanism
reaches the proper temperature, the icemaker mechanism will fill the mold
with water to start the ice making process.
• The first cubes may be small because of air in the water line. Later
