...Before Calling For Service...
SELF-SERVICE CHECK LIST
Performance problems often result from little things you
can find and fix yourself.
1.
Unit does not run:
Service or Cycle switch must be in "ON"
position.
Check to see that power cord is plugged in.
Check for blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker
in electrical supply to machine.
Room temperature must be above 55°F.
(13°C). Otherwise, bin thermostat may sense
cold room temperature and shut off even though
bin is not full of ice. Also, unit may not restart
once it does shut off.
2.
Unit runs but produces no ice:
Service or Cycle switch must be in "ON"
position.
Check water supply to make sure it is open.
If ice machine is operated at an elevation of
2,000 feet or more above sea level, both the bin
thermostat and the ice thickness thermostat
need to be recalibrated. See Installation
Instructions.
3.
Unit runs but produces very little ice:
Room temperature may be extremely high, over
90°F. (32°C). In this case, it is normal for ice
production to be low.
Dirt or lint may be blocking the air flow through
the finned condenser. Condenser needs to be
cleaned.
Check to see if the unit has a scale build-up in
water and freezing system. Clean, if necessary.
4.
Grid is not cutting ice sheets:
Check the grid harness plug to make sure the
connection is secure.
5.
Taste in ice cubes:
There may be an unusually high mineral content
in water supply. Water may need to be filtered
or treated.
Do not store any foods in the ice bin.
Packaging material not all removed.
A more detailed "Trouble Diagnosis Chart" and other technical information is shipped
with each unit and is located in the unit compartment section.
Service repair and replacement parts manuals may be ordered directly from:
