I. Startup

WARNING

1.All parts are factory-adjusted. Improper adjustments may adversely affect safety, performance, component life, and warranty coverage.

2.If the icemaker is turned off, wait for at least 3 minutes before restarting the icemaker to prevent damage to the compressor.

3.Do not operate the icemaker in the "WASH" position without water in the water tank. This will cause damage to the water pump seal.

4.At startup, confirm that all internal and external connections are free of leaks.

1)Open the water supply line shut-off valves.

2)Remove the front panel.

3)Move the control switch on the control box to the "ICE" position.

4)Replace the front panel in its correct position.

5)Turn on the power supply, and allow the icemaker to operate for a total of 10 minutes.

6)Turn off the power supply, then remove the front panel.

7)Remove the insulation panel. Remove the drain plug located on the lower front part of the ice chute. Allow the water tank to drain. See Fig. 11.

8)Replace the drain plug, insulation panel, and front panel in their correct positions. Be careful not to cross thread the drain plug.

9)Clean the storage bin liner using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.

10)Turn on the power supply to start the automatic icemaking process.

11)When the icemaker is running, hold an ice cube in contact with the bulb. The icemaker should stop within 10 seconds. Adjustment may be needed in some conditions.

12)Confirm proper condenser drain outlet/return outlet temperature as outlined in "II.G.2. Water-Cooled Condenser."
