PREPARING THE ICE MACHINE FOR STORAGE
If the ice machine is moved, not used for an extended
period of time, or will be in an area that will be near freez-
ing temperatures, it is necessary to remove any remaining
water in the ice-making system.
12. Leave the water supply line disconnected or reconnect
the supply line and leave it shut off. Do NOT turn the
water on and allow water to enter back into the water
valve.
Draining Water for Optional Drain Pump Applications
13. Remove the drain pump from the ice machine (refer to
Drain Pump Installation Instructions on page 5).
14. Drain the water in the drain pump’s reservoir by turn-
ing the pump upside down and allowing water to drain
through the pump’s inlet and vent tube fittings.
15. After all water is drained, reinstall the drain pump.
Make certain all tubing is installed and all hose clamps
are tight (refer to Drain Pump Installation Instructions
on page 5).
To Restart the Ice Machine
With the rocker switch in the OFF position, plug the 1.
unit into an electrical outlet.
Reconnect or turn on the water supply line.2.
Reconnect drain tubing if removed.3.
Turn the rocker switch to the ON position.4.
Check the water inlet, drain lines, and fittings for any 5.
water leaks.
Check drain pump (if equipped) operation by pouring 6.
approximately two (2) quarts of water into the ice stor-
age bin. The drain pump should activate and dis-
charge water (refer to Drain Pump Installation Instruc-
tions on page 5). Check for water leaks at all hose
connections.
Clean the Ice Machine
Cleaning the ice machine will help prevent mold and mil-
dew growth as well as sanitize the unit for storage or when
it is put back into service. See page 15 for instructions for
cleaning the ice machine.
Draining and Removing Water from the Ice-Making
System
Turn off water supply to the ice machine.1.
Disconnect the water supply fitting at the inlet of the 2.
water valve.
Switch the rocker switch to CLEAN for approximately 3.
one (1) minute. This will energize and open the water
valve and remove most of the water from the water
valve and the water valve’s outlet water line to the
reservoir.
Switch the rocker switch to OFF position. This will en-4.
ergize and open the drain valve to drain the reservoir
and the ice machine drain system.
Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet.5.
Remove the back panel from the rear of the unit.6.
Disconnect the water valve’s outlet water line to the res-7.
ervoir and drain the remaining water left in the water
line trap area.
Reconnect the water valve outlet water line and tighten 8.
the compression nut to a watertight seal.
9. Reinstall the unit’s back panel.
10. Clean and dry the ice machine’s storage bin.
11. Prop the door open for air circulation to prevent mold
and mildew.
This ice machine must have all water drained and removed
to prevent ice machine damage as well as possible water
damage to the surrounding area in freezing conditions.
These damages are not covered under warranty.
Do not use any type of anti-freeze or other solution as a
substitution for properly draining the ice machine.
