SAFETY LIMIT NOTES

Because there are many possible external problems, do not limit your diagnosis to only the items listed in this chart.

A continuous run of 100 harvests automatically erases the safety limit code.

The control board will store and indicate only one safety limit – the last one exceeded.

If the toggle switch is moved to the OFF position and then back to the ICE position prior to reaching the 100-harvest point, the last safety limit exceeded will be indicated.

If a Safety Limit light did not flash prior to the ice machine restarting, then the ice machine did not stop because it exceeded a safety limit.
