TROUBLE SHOOTING
PROBLEM
Unit does not operate.
Unit operates but does
not produce ice.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
1.The unit is unplugged.
2. Breaker is tripped or fuse is
blown.
3. Icemaker selector switch is
in the "OFF"position.
1.The unit hasjust been
started and it has been less
than 6 hours.
2. Typical ice production cycle
can take up to 1.5 hours.
Initial start-up cycles can be
longer.
3.The selector switch is in the
"OFF" or "CLEAN" position.
4. No water in the reservoir.
5. Distributor tube is
restricted.
6. Build-up of deposits on
evaporator plate.
7. Condenser fan air flow is
restricted.
8. Room and/or water temper-
ature is too warm.
9. Leaking drain valve.
10. Inadequate drain system.
11. Grid cutter is unplugged.
12.Circulation pump is
unplugged.
CORRECTION
Plug in the unit,
Reset breaker or replace fuse. Check to make sure
there is not a short in the electrical circuit.
Set the rocker switch on the grill of the ice maker to the
"ON" position.
ice produced when the unit is initially started will melt
off in the bin. Ice will accumulate in the bin. In 6 hours,
there can be a few cubes in the bin. This is normal
operation.
Check the unit in 24 hours for ice accumulation in the
bin.
Set the rocker switch on the grill of the ice maker to the
"ON" position.
Make sure that the reservoir drain plug is installed.
Check the water line to the unit to make sure it is on
and that there are no restrictions or kinks in the line.
Check all filters to make sure they are not restricted or
plugged.
See "CLEANING YOUR ICE MAKER" section for cleaning
the unit for proper operation.
See "CLEANING YOUR ICE MAKER" section for cleaning
the unit for proper operation.
Make certain the grill in the front of the unit is free and
open for proper air circulation. Check and clean the
condenser coil by removing the grill in the front of the
unit.
Clean the condenser with a vacuum and brush attach-
ment. Move the unit to an area where ambient
temperature is below 90 degrees R The unit should not
be placed next to a heat source such as an oven. Check
for cold water connection.
See "CLEANING YOUR ICE MAKER" section for cleaning
the unit. This will also dissolve and flush out foreign
material in the drain valve causing itto leak.
Restriction in drain lines will cause ice in the bin to
melt. If using a gravity drain, make certain there are no
kinks or restrictions in the drain lines, if using a drain
pump, check the inlet screen, discharge line, and vent
line for any build-up or restrictions.
Plug in the grid cutter so that ice slabs can be cut into
cubes.
Plug in the circulation pump so that water from the
reservoir can be circulated over the evaporation plate.
