Flush Mode: (6 minutes maximum) The Flush Mode begins every time the user interface is changed to “On” from “Off”, “Clean” or “Holiday”. This will be the initial time it is turned on, or when the ice maker is turned on after the completion of the Clean or Holiday Modes, or (drain pump models only) when operation resumes after the ice maker is shut down by the drain pump.
