Orien FSCD-400IM - Manual (Page 8)

NOTE: The ice maker will not work unless connected to a water supply line as
described on pages 3 and 4.
Once the water line is connected and the unit is plugged in, open the freezer
compartment and press down the ice sensor bar (Drawing 2). The water will
make its way to the ice maker and begin to make ice when the temperature of
the freezer compartment gets below the freezing point (32ºF). When formed,
the ice cubes will automatically drop onto the ice tray. Occasionally the cubes
may freeze together but they can be separated easily.
You will hear sounds when water rushes through the ice maker and when the
cubes drop to the tray during the ice-making process. The ice sensor bar will
gradually rise up as the tray becomes filled with ice, and this will eventually
stop the production of cubes. Ice making will continue once the cubes have
been removed and the sensor bar is lowered.
To manually turn off the ice maker, raise the sensor bar to the “locked”
position (Drawing 1).
IMPORTANT
• Do not turn on the ice maker unless the
water line is connected and water has
been allowed to flow into the unit.
• Do not place any bottles, cans or food in
the ice maker as this can damage it.
The first batch of ice cubes will be formed within 24 hours after electrical and
water connections have been made for the unit. If no ice is removed, it should
take 3 or 4 days to fill the ice tray.
For sanitary reasons, the first several batches of ice cubes should be
discarded when the ice maker is being used for the first time. If the cubes
show a blue or green tint, they should not be consumed. This is an indication
that the water is not pure and should be filtered.
If ice cubes have not been removed for a long period of time, they may start to
freeze together. You can turn off the ice maker by raising the sensor bar as
shown on page 5 in Drawing 1. If the ice maker will be off for an extended
period of time, turn off the water supply and disconnect the water connection,
allowing water to drain out of the system.
