TROUBLE ShOOTiNG

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTION

Unit does not operate.

1. The unit is unplugged.

Plug in the unit.

2. Breaker is tripped or fuse is

blown.

Reset breaker or replace fuse. Check to make sure

there is not a short in the electrical circuit.

3. Ice maker selector switch is

in the “OFF” position.

Set the rocker switch on the grill of the ice maker to the

“ON” position.

Unit operates but does

not produce ice.

1. The unit has just been

started and it has been less

than 6 hours.

Ice produced when the unit is initially started will melt

off in the bin. Ice will accumulate in the bin. In 6 hours,

there can be a few cubes in the bin. This is normal

operation.

2. Typical ice production cycle

can take up to 1.5 hours.

Initial start-up cycles can be

longer.

Check the unit in 24 hours for ice accumulation in the

bin.

3. The selector switch is in the

“OFF” or “CLEAN” position.

Set the rocker switch on the grill of the ice maker to the

“ON” position.

4. No water in the reservoir.

Make sure that the reservoir drain plug is installed.

Check the water line to the unit to make sure it is on

and that there are no restrictions or kinks in the line.

Check all filters to make sure they are not restricted or

plugged.

5. Distributor tube is

restricted.

See “CLEANING YOUR ICE MAKER” section for cleaning

the unit for proper operation.

6. Build-up of deposits on

evaporator plate.

See “CLEANING YOUR ICE MAKER” section for cleaning

the unit for proper operation.

7. Condenser fan air flow is

restricted.

Make certain the grill in the front of the unit is free and

open for proper air circulation. Check and clean the

condenser coil by removing the grill in the front of the

unit.

8. Room and/or water temper-

ature is too warm.

Clean the condenser with a vacuum and brush attach-

ment. Move the unit to an area where ambient

temperature is below 90 degrees F. The unit should not

be placed next to a heat source such as an oven. Check

for cold water connection.

9. Leaking drain valve.

See “CLEANING YOUR ICE MAKER” section for cleaning

the unit. This will also dissolve and flush out foreign

material in the drain valve causing it to leak.

10. Inadequate drain system.

Restriction in drain lines will cause ice in the bin to

melt. If using a gravity drain, make certain there are no

kinks or restrictions in the drain lines. If using a drain

pump, check the inlet screen, discharge line, and vent

line for any build-up or restrictions.

11. Grid cutter is unplugged.

Plug in the grid cutter so that ice slabs can be cut into

cubes.

12. Circulation pump is

unplugged.

Plug in the circulation pump so that water from the

reservoir can be circulated over the evaporation plate.
