WHEN THE DESIRED ICE SLAB THICKNESS IS REACHED, THE HARVEST CYCLE BEGINS AND THE FOLLOWlNG HAPPENS:

Evaporalor thermostal IS Sallshed

Compressor keeps running

Condenser fan slops or turns very slowly

Waler pump slops

HOI gas solenoid opens

Water Intel valve opens

Excess waler IS flushed oul of the drain pan Cutter grid IS warm lo the touch

NOTE: Normal herveal cycle takes 60 to 120 seconds.

ICE MAKER OPERATION

How it makes Ice:

1.Water IS circulated overa freezlng plate. As the waler freezes, minerals m the waler are rejected. The absence of mmerals oroduces a clear sheet of ice.

2.When the desired thickness IS reached, the Ice sheet is released and slides on lo a culler grid. The grid

diwdes the sheet Into mdwdual cubes

3.The water conlalnmg the rejected minerals IS dramed oul at the end of each freezlng cycle.

4.Fresh waler then enters the machme for the next Ice makmg cy

5.Cubes fall Into the storage bin When lhe bin IS full

Ihe ice maker shuls off automabcally and reslarls when more vce IS needed
