Normal Sounds
Your new ice cube machine may make sounds that are unfamiliar to you. Most of the
new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces like the floor and walls can amplify the sounds.
The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be
causing them.
Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line. Items
stored on top of the ice cube machine can also make noises.
The high-efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
Running water may make a splashing sound.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.
During the Harvest cycle, you may hear the sound of ice cubes falling into the ice
storage bin.
Preparing the Ice Cube Machine for Long Storage
If the ice cube machine will not be used for a long time, or it is to be moved to another
place, it will be necessary to drain the system of water.
1. Shut off the water supply at the main water source.
2. Disconnect the water supply line from the water inlet.
3. Shut off the power supply at the main electrical power source.
4. Screw off the water tank screw nut and drain out water completely, then tighten the
nut after finishing. Dry the tank.
5. Remove the ice from the ice storage bin. Dry the bin.
6. Leave the door open to allow for circulation and to prevent mold and mildew.
7. Leave the water supply line and power cord disconnected until ready to reuse..
IMPORTANT:
Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet.
Never unplug the unit by pulling on the cord.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and
long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may
want to shorten the intervals if you have pets or there are other special considerations.
What shouldn’t be done
Never keep anything in the ice storage bin other than ice: objects like wine and beer
bottles are not only unsanitary, but the labels may slip off and plug up the drain.
