110°F (43°C). Best results are obtained at

temperatures between 70°F (21“C) and

90°F (32°C).

l is properly connected to a water supply

I..

l is connected only to the proper kind of

outlet, with the correct electric supply and

grounding. A 120 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 amp

fused electrical supply is required.

NOTE: Time delay fuse or circuit breaker

is recommended.

l is not used by anyone unable to operate

it properly.

l is used only to do what ice makers are

designed to do.

l is properly maintained.

NOTE: A drain pump kit (EKDP3) is

. .

ana araln. available as an option for installation where

Using Your Ice Maker

In order to obtain the best possible results from your ice maker, you must operate it properly.

This section will tell you how to do just that.

Understanding how your ice maker works

1. Water is constantly circulated over a

freezing plate. As the water freezes into

ice, the minerals in the water are rejected.

This produces a sheet of ice with a low

mineral content.

NOTE:

The ice maker is designed to make

clear ice from the majority of water

sources on a daily basis. If your results are

unsatisfactory, water may need to be

filtered or treated. See “Filtering and

treating water” on page 14.

2. When the desired thickness is reached,

the ice sheet is released and slides onto a

cutter grid. The grid divides the sheet into

individual cubes.

3. The water containing the rejected minerals

is drained after each freezing cycle.

4. Fresh water enters the machine for the

next ice making cycle.

5. Cubes fall into the storage bin. When the

bin is full, the ice maker shuts off automati-

cally and restarts when more ice is

needed.

Setting the controls

1. Select ice thickness. The ice maker has

been preset to produce ice approximately

l/z” (13 mm) thick, while operating in a

room temperature of 70°F (21°C).

Operation in different room tempera-

tures may require readjusting the control

toward “THICK” or “THIN.”

Best operation will be obtained with ice

l/z’ (13 mm) to %I’ (16 mm) thick.

If operating in a warm room (above

90°F [32X]) DO NOT set control to

maximum thickness or the unit may

malfunction.

2. To start the normal ice making cycle, turn

the Cycle Control Knob to “ON.”

3. To stop ice maker operation, turn Cycle

Control Knob to “OFF.”

The “CLEAN” setting is used whenever

solutions are circulated through the ice

maker for cleaning. Only the water pump

operates at this setting. See “Cleaning the

ice maker system” on page 11 for specifii

instructions.

Changing the bin door panel

You can easily change the color of the front

panel on the storage bin door. Two colors

are available: Black and White.

To change panel:

1. Open the storage bin door. Remove the

two screws on the top of the door, which

hold the handle.

2. Loosen the screws in both of the side trim

pieces.

3. Remove the handle and the handle insert.

4. Carefully slide the panel out. You will find

the reverse side is white. For units with

white panels showing, the reverse side

will be black.

5. Choose the color you want to show and

carefully slide the panel back into the

door.

NOTE: Be careful not to scratch the panel

as it is inserted.

6. Replace the handle insert and tighten the

screws in both side trim pieces. Replace

the handle and the screws.

NOTE: You

can make a decorative wood

front to match existing cabinets. The panel

should be l/r* (6 mm) thick and 17” x llV4”

(4% mm x 266 mm). Remove the color

panel and break off the ribs on the door

insulation to allow for wood thickness.

Changing the lower access panel

Electrical Shock Hazard

Do not operate ice maker with lower

access panel or control panel removed.

Electrical shock or personal injury could

result.

1. Remove the two screws in the lower grille

area and the one screw from the center of

the front panel support. (Open bin door

slightly for better access to screw.) Pull

forward and down to remove the lower

access panel.

2. Remove the two screws from the top panel

trim and remove the top trim.

3. Carefully slide the panel out.

4. Choose the color you want to show and

carefully slide the panel back into the lower

access panel.

NOTE:

Be careful not to scratch the panel

as it is inserted.

5. Replace the top trim and screws. Replace

the lower access panel assembly and

screws.

NOTE:

You can make a decorative wood

front to match existing cabinets. The panel

should be l/4* (6 mm) thick and 17” x 1115/16”

(433 mm x 303 mm). Remove the color

panel and spacers to allow for wood

thickness.

Changing the light bulb

Electrical Shock Hazard

Before removing the light bulb, either

unplug the ice maker or disconnect the

electricity leading to the ice maker at the

main power supply.

Shock and injury can occur if electricity

remains connected.

The ice maker has a light bulb in the top of

the storage bin. To replace it, open the bin

door and follow these instructions:

1. Disconnect ice maker from power supply.

2. Remove the two thumb screws and slide the

ice cutter grid forward, out of the two slots

near the water pan. Set the ice cutter grid on

the bin door.

3. Press the front of the light shield in while

pulling down to remove it from the light

bracket.

4. Remove and replace with a 12-volt wedge

base-type bulb (automotive #917).

5. Replace the light shield, ice cutter grid, and

two thumb screws.

6. Reconnect power supply.

Cleaning Your Ice Maker

Periodically inspect and clean the ice maker

to keep it operating at peak efficiency and to

prevent premature failure of system compo-

nents.

Both the ice making system and the air

cooled condenser need to be cleaned

regularly.

The minerals rejected from the circulating

water during the freezing cycle will eventually

form a hard scaly deposit in the water system

which prevents

rapid release of the ice from

the freezing plate.

A dirty or clogged condenser:

prevents proper air flow.

reduces ice making capacity.

causes higher than recommended operating

temperatures which may lead to component

failure.

Clean the ice and water system periodically

to remove mineral scale buildup. Frequency

of cleaning depends on water hardness. With

hard water (15 to 20 grains/gal. [4 to 5 grains/

liter]), cleaning may be required as frequently

as every six months.

Cleaning exterior surfaces

Wash the exterior enamel surfaces and

gaskets with warm water and mikf soap or

detergent. Rinse and dry. Regular use of a

good household appliance cleaner and wax

will help protect the finish.

Do not use abrasive cleaners on enamel

surfaces as they may scratch the finish.

Cleaning the condenser

Personal Injury and

Product Damage Hazard

Be sure the ice maker is OFF and

disconnected from the main power

supply. Unit could suddenly start if not

disconnected. Condenser fan rotation,

sharp condenser fins, and hot tubing

could cause personal injury.

Condenser fins can bend easily. Use

care when vacuuming the condenser

to keep from bending the fins.

Failure to follow the above precautions

could result in personal injury or product

damage.

Disconnect electrical power supply to the

ice maker and turn the Cycle Control Knob

to “OFF.”

2. Remove the two screws in the lower grille

area and the one screw from the center of

the front panel support. (Open bin door

slightly for better access to screw.)

3. Pull forward and down to remove the lower

access panel.

4. Remove dirt and lint from the condenser

fins and the unit compartment with a brush

attachment attached to a vacuum cleaner.

5. Replace the lower access panel and

screws. The top of the access panel needs

to be secured under the two metal tabs

before replacing the screws.

6. Reconnect unit to electrical power supply,

and turn the Cycle Control Knob to “ON.”
