Water Fill Valve
Turning water level adjustment screw will
move contact in relationship with contact
ring segment. This causes contact to vary
time water valve is energized. Contact ring
is tapered at end of fill time.
• Turning screw clockwise decreases fill
time.
• Turning screw counterclockwise
increases fill time.
• ½ turn equals 20 cc or 1.2 seconds.
• Full turn equals 40 cc or 2.4 seconds.
Ice Maker
If water valve adjustment screw fall out, put
screw in hole and align as shown below.
When small hole is centered in large hole,
water fill adjustment is 7.5 seconds (normal
fill time).
Water Problems
Poor water quality can cause ice maker to
fail or produce unacceptable cubes. Mineral
content or sand can restrict screen in water
fill valve or particle of sand can keep valve
from seating properly.
If water valve does not close, the following
could occur
• no ice production
• small or hollow ice cubes
• flooding of ice container
Install water filter to eliminate bad taste,
odor, and visible contaminates.
Mineral contact can cause lime build up in
mold,
Wicking of water over mold and poor cube
release can occur. Silicone is applied at
upper edges around fill cup and stripper.
Temperature Problems
Freezer temperatures above normal 0° ± 2° F
(-18°± 1°C) will slow down ice
production. Increase ice production by
setting freezer to colder setting.
Thermostat cycling temperature (1
revolution ice maker) is 17° ± 3° F (-8°
± 1°C). Ice will freeze when these
temperatures are achieved. Cycling time
will be slower if freezer temperature is
not cold enough to achieve mode
temperatures easily.
Thermostat, mold heater, and wiring
harness are replaceable. Any other
failure, including motor, requires
replacement of module assembly.
Replacement mold assembly comes with
new mold heater installed.
