Vacation and Moving Care

To shut down the ice maker:

1. Unplug ice maker or disconnect power.

2. Remove all ice from storage bin.

3. Shut off the water supply.

4. Remove the two screws in the lower access panel and the

two screws from the base grille area of the front panel
support. Pull forward to remove the lower access panel.

5. Disconnect the inlet and outlet lines to water valve. Allow

these lines to drain and then reconnect to the valve.

6. Replace lower access panel and screws.

7. Drain water from water pan by removing the drain cap.

8. If the room temperature will drop below 32°F (0°C), water

must be removed from the drain line.

For ice makers with a drain pump installed:

Plug in ice maker or reconnect power.

Turn ice maker off and remove all remaining ice from ice
bin.

Pour 1 qt (0.95 L) of water into the ice bin near the drain
and let the unit stand for approximately 5 minutes. This
will allow the water in the bin to drain into the drain pump
so that the pump will remove the remaining water from
the ice bin and the drain pump.

Unplug ice maker or disconnect power.

9. Before using again, clean the ice maker and storage bin.

10. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

NOTE: All components of the ice maker are permanently
lubricated at the factory. They should not require any additional
oiling throughout the normal life of the machine.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.

Ice Maker Operation

Your ice maker will not operate

Is the power cord plugged in? Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet.

Is the control set to ON? Be sure that the control is set to
ON.

Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped?
Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the
problem continues, call an electrician.

Is the room temperature cooler than normal? Room
temperature must be above 55°F (13°C). Otherwise, bin
thermostat may sense cold room temperature and shut off
even though the bin is not full of ice. Also, unit may not restart
once it does shut off.

Does the green light come on when the Clean button is
pushed?
The ice maker is receiving power but may need
cleaning. See “Cleaning.”

Does the ice maker have a drain pump? If there was a large
amount of water added to the ice maker, wait a few minutes
for the drain pump to clear. If there is still water in the bin,
check to see whether the drain hose is kinked.
