INITIAL START-UP

Once installation and leveling is complete, the unit is ready for initial start-up and operation. Your unit is shipped in the OFF position, how- ever, you may turn it ON/OFF using the cycle selector switch located in the grille (see Figure 26).

1.Plug the appliance cord into a 115V polarized and grounded elec- trical outlet.

2.Open the water supply valve in the main water source.

3.Put the cycle selector switch in the ICE/ON position. The water fill valve will energize and fill the water reservoir. The water fill valve shuts off after 180 seconds. The compressor begins to operate and water flows over the evaporator assembly (ice cube tray).

4.Upon initial start-up, water flow over the evaporator may be uneven. This may cause uneven sized cubes or water spilling into the ice storage bin. This is a normal situation and will correct itself within the first twenty-four hours of operation. After the initial start- up period, the water will cascade evenly over the evaporator.

It is possible that dirt or scale will dislodge in the water line. Always throw away all ice cubes made during the first two to three hours of operation.
