WATER SUPPLY

Water Supply

This ice machine must be connected to a potable, active cold water supply line delivering water pressure at a minimum of 20 psi and maximum of 120 psi.

Water connection is made through a right angle garden hose fitting supplied with ice machine. See garden hose fitting for detailed instruction sheet. Do not use any thread sealers.

A water filter can be used with this unit. A quality filter can help remove particles as well as remove taste and odors from water.

Do not use a “reverse osmosis” filtering device.

Softened water is not recommended. This will produce soft, cloudy ice cubes that will stick together.

De-ionized water is not recommended. This water will not form solid ice cubes.

A water specialist can recommend proper water treatment.

After installation of water line, turn on water and check for any leaks. Additional tightening may be needed.

Allow for extra water line for built-in installations for easy removal of unit and to help prevent the water line from kinking.

Operation

Your ice machine is unique in forming ice. It uses fractional freezing to form a slab of ice that is clear and has less mineral content than the water it is produced from. This is accomplished by running water over the cold evaporator plate which gradu- ally freezes the water to produce the ice slab. Mineral deposits are left in the reservoir.

When the ice slab reaches the correct thickness determined by the temperature of the evaporator plate, the electronic control switches to the har- vest cycle to harvest the ice. During the harvest cycle, the ice slab falls from the evaporator to the ice grid cutter. Here, the ice slab is cut into 3/4"

squares by the grid cutter's heated wires. During the harvest cycle, the drain valve will remain open for 45 seconds to drain the reservoir of remaining deposits. After that, the water valve open will open for 2 minutes providing 2 quarts of water to the reservoir for the next ice production cycle.

The ice machine will keep producing ice until the ice machine's bin is full and will restart automati- cally when ice needs to be replenished in the bin.
