5. Opsætning og installation

Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of your ice machine. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified technician.

5.1. Udpakning og placering

• Fjern forsigtigt al emballage. Undersøg enheden for eventuelle forsendelsesskader.
• Place the ice machine on a firm, level surface capable of supporting its weight (204 lbs empty, plus ice).
• Ensure adequate ventilation. As an air-cooled unit, it requires a minimum of 6 inches of clear space on the sides and rear for proper airflow. Do not install in an enclosed cabinet without proper ventilation.
• Avoid locations near heat-generating appliances or in direct sunlight. The ambient temperature should be between 50°F (10°C) and 90°F (32°C).

5.2. Vandtilslutning

• Connect the ice machine to a cold, potable water supply with a pressure between 20 PSI and 80 PSI.
• Install the included in-line water filter according to its instructions to ensure clean water for ice production and to protect the machine.
• Use new water supply hoses; do not reuse old hoses.

5.3. Afløbstilslutning

• The unit requires a floor drain or a drain pump (not included) for proper water drainage.
• Ensure the drain hose has a continuous downward slope to prevent standing water and blockages.

5.4. Elektrisk tilslutning

• Plug the ice machine into a dedicated, grounded 115V/60Hz/1-Phase electrical outlet.
• Brug ikke adapterstik eller forlængerledninger.
• Ensure the circuit is protected by a properly sized fuse or circuit breaker (rated for 6.3 Amps or higher).

5.5. Indledende rengøring

• Before first use, clean the ice storage bin and all surfaces that come into contact with water or ice. Refer to the "Maintenance" section for detailed cleaning instructions.

6. Betjeningsvejledning

This section details the basic operation of your Snooker ice machine.

6.1. Kontrolpanel overview

The digital control panel provides status indicators and allows for basic adjustments.

Figure 6.1: Digital control panel showing status indicators (INIT, PREP, MAKE, DROP, INLET, E FAULT), a digital display, and buttons for thickness adjustment, clean cycle, and power (ON/OFF).

• INIT: Initialization phase.
• FORBERED: Preparation phase before ice making.
• LAVE: Ice making cycle in progress.
• DRÅBE: Ice harvesting/dropping cycle.
• FJORD: Water inlet status.
• E FAULT: Error indicator. Refer to the display for specific error codes (E01-E08).
• +/- knapper: Juster isens tykkelse.
• CLEAN knap: Starter rengøringscyklussen.
• ON/OFF knap: Tænder eller slukker for enheden.

6.2. Starting the Ice Machine

1. Sørg for, at enheden er korrekt installeret og tilsluttet vand og strøm.
2. Tryk på ON/OFF button on the control panel. The machine will begin its initialization sequence.
3. The unit will automatically proceed through the PREP, MAKE, and DROP cycles to produce ice.

6.3. Justering af istykkelse

• During the MAKE cycle, use the + or - buttons on the control panel to adjust the ice thickness. Increasing the value typically results in thicker ice, and decreasing it results in thinner ice.
• Allow several cycles for the adjustment to take full effect.

6.4. Isopbevaring

• Ice is automatically dropped into the integrated 80 lb storage bin.
• The machine will stop producing ice when the bin is full (indicated by E01: ICE FULL). Production will resume automatically when ice is removed.
• Use the provided ice scoop to retrieve ice from the bin. The lift and slide lid stays open for convenience.

• Check for any obstructions in the air vents and clean if necessary.

7.3. Monthly / Bi-Monthly Cleaning (or as needed)

Perform a thorough cleaning of the ice-making system and water circuit.

1. Forberede: Ensure the ice bin is empty. Turn off the machine and unplug it from the power outlet.
2. Rens cyklus: Plug the machine back in. Press and hold the REN button for 3 seconds to initiate the automatic cleaning cycle. Follow the instructions on the display. This cycle typically circulates a cleaning solution through the system.
3. Manuel rengøring: For deeper cleaning, you may need to manually clean components like the evaporator, water pump, and water tray. Consult a qualified technician if unsure.
4. Afkalkning: Use a commercial ice machine descaling solution to remove mineral buildup. Follow the descaler manufacturer's instructions carefully.
5. Skylle: After cleaning/descaling, run several rinse cycles (often part of the automatic clean cycle or by running ice cycles and discarding the first few batches of ice) to ensure all cleaning solution is flushed out.

7.4. Udskiftning af vandfilter

• The in-line water filter should be replaced every 3-6 months, or more frequently depending on water quality and usage.
• Se vandfilterets specifikke instruktioner for udskiftningsprocedurer.
