Ice Maker (Optional)

The ice maker is assembled to the refrigerators at the factory as optional equipment. If the refrigerator does not have a factory
installed ice maker, one cannot be added to the refrigerator at a later time.

The ice maker is fully automatic and will operate in ambient temperatures as low as 0° F. To allow operation at temperatures
between 0° F and 32° F., the ice maker has a heater on the solenoid water valve and on the water line between the solenoid valve
and the ice maker. At temperatures below 0° F, store the ice maker as written in the “Ice Maker Storage” section of this manual.

CAUTION:

The water line heater does not protect the water supply line from the vehicle shut off valve to the solenoid valve on

the back of the refrigerator.

When the freezer temperature of the refrigerator is low enough, the ice maker opens the water solenoid valve and fills the mold. The
ice maker ejects the frozen ice into a storage bin. As the storage bin fills, the ice raises the shut-off arm until it turns off the ice
maker. As you use the ice and lower the ice level in the storage bin, the shut-off arm also lowers. This turns the ice maker ON and
begins the process of making ice.

The ice maker operates on:

- Cold potable water at a pressure of 15 psi - 125 psi.

- 120 Volts AC (108 VAC min. - 132 VAC max.).

Ice maker operation:

1. Make sure the ice maker AC power cord is plugged into a receptacle.

2. Open the water shut off valve of the vehicle.

NOTE: Make sure that the ice maker arm can move freely and does not touch the frozen foods in the freezer.

3. Push the ice maker arm down to the ON position [60] (See Art01015).

CAUTION:

If you operate the refrigerator without connecting the water supply line and/or opening the water shut off valve of

the vehicle, make sure the ice maker arm is up in the OFF position.

4. Allow the freezer to cool enough and ice production will begin to fill the storage bin [61.

NOTE: New plumbing connections and/or impurities in the water supply line after winterizing can cause the first ice to be discolored

or have an odd flavor.

5. To stop the ice maker, push the ice maker arm up to the OFF position [62.
