ICE THICKNESS CHECK

The ice thickness probe is factory-set to maintain the ice bridge thickness at 1/8” (3.2 mm).

1.Inspect the bridge connecting the cubes. It should be about 1/8” (3.2 mm) thick.

2.If adjustment is necessary, turn the ice thickness probe adjustment screw clockwise to increase bridge thickness, or counterclockwise to decrease bridge thickness.

NOTE: Turning the adjustment 1/3 of a turn will change the ice thickness about 1/16” (1.5 mm).
