Water

The quality of the water supplied to the ice machine will have an impact on the time between cleanings and ultimately on the life of the product. Water can contain impurities either in suspension or in solution. Suspended solids can be filtered out. In solution or dissolved solids cannot be filtered, they must be diluted or treated. Water filters are recommended to remove suspended solids. Some filters have treatment in them for dissolved solids. Check with a water treatment service for a recommendation.
RO water. This machine can be supplied with Reverse Osmosis water, but the water conductivity must be no less than 10 microSiemens/cm.

Water Purge
Cube ice machines use more water than what ends up in the bin as ice. While most water is used during ice making, a portion is designed to be drained out every cycle to reduce the amount of hard water scale in the machine. That's known as water purge, and an effective purge can increase the time between needed water system cleaning. In addition, this product is designed to automatically vary the amount of water purged based on the purity of the water supplied to it. The water purge rate can also be set manually. Adjustments of purge due to local water conditions are not covered by warranty.

Potential for Airborne Contamination

Installing an ice machine near a source of yeast or similar material can result in the need for more frequent sanitation cleanings due to the tendency of these materials to contaminate the machine.

Most water filters remove chlorine from the water supply to the machine which contributes to this situation. Testing has shown that using a filter that does not remove chlorine, such as the Scotsman Aqua Patrol, will greatly improve this situation, while the ice making process itself will remove the chlorine from the ice, resulting in no taste or odor impact. Additionally, devices intended to enhance ice machine sanitation, such as the Scotsman Aqua Bullet, can be placed in the machine to keep it cleaner between manual cleanings.

Remote Condenser Location

Use the following for planning the placement of the condenser relative to the ice machine
Location Limits - condenser location must not exceed ANY of the following limits:
· Maximum rise from the ice machine to the condenser is 35 physical feet
· Maximum drop from the ice machine to the condenser is 15 physical feet
· Physical line set maximum length is 100 feet. · Calculated line set length maximum is 150.
Calculation Formula:
· Drop = dd x 6.6 (dd = distance in feet) · Rise = rd x 1.7 (rd = distance in feet) · Horizontal Run = hd x 1 (hd = distance in feet) · Calculation: Drop(s) + Rise(s) + Horizontal Run =
dd+rd+hd = Calculated Line Length
Configurations that do NOT meet these requirements must receive prior written authorization from Scotsman.

Do NOT:
Route a line set that rises, then falls, then rises.
Route a line set that falls, then rises, then falls.
Calculation Example 1:
The condenser is to be located 5 feet below the ice machine and then 20 feet away horizontally.
5 feet x 6.6 = 33. 33 + 20 = 53. This location would be acceptable
Calculation Example 2:
The condenser is to be located 35 feet above and then 100 feet away horizontally. 35 x 1.7 = 59.5.
59.5 +100 = 159.5. 159.5 is greater than the 150 maximum and is NOT acceptable.
Operating a machine with an unacceptable configuration is misuse and will void the warranty.

1. Remove front and left side panels. Check machine for any packing or wires rubbing moving parts. Note location of control board in upper left corner of the machine's front.

6. When the ice has frozen enough, the Ready for Harvest indicator light will be on steady. After it's been on steady for a few seconds Harvest will begin.

2. Switch on the electrical power to the machine. Observe that some of the control's indicator lights glow and its display shows O.
3. Wait 4 hours for the compressor's crankcase heater to warm up the oil in the compressor.
Start Up
1. Open the water supply valve.
2. Turn the receiver's outlet valve to the full open position.
3. Push and release the lower ON button.
The indicator light will begin to blink F. The purge valve will open and the water pump will start. The inlet water valve will open to add water to the reservoir. After a few seconds the purge valve will close and the water pump will stop. Water will flow into the machine until the reservoir is full. The hot gas valve and harvest assist device will activate and the liquid line solenoid valve will open, then the compressor and water pump will start. The display will show a continuous F. Five seconds later the hot gas valve will close and the harvest assist device will return to its standby position. Warm air will be discharged from the condenser coil.

7. The display shows an H.
The hot gas valve opens and the harvest assist mechanism is activated. The purge valve opens to drain some water, when it does the inlet water valve opens to refill the reservoir. After a few seconds the purge valve closes but the inlet water valve continues to fill the reservoir. Harvest continues until the ice is released as a unit and forces the curtain to open. When the curtain opens it signals the controller which returns the unit to a freeze cycle.
8. Check the ice harvested for proper bridge thickness. The ice bridge is factory set at 1/8 inch. If needed, adjust bridge thickness. Do NOT make it too thin.
9. Return the panels to their normal positions and secure them to the machine.
10. Instruct the user in the operation of the machine and its maintenance requirements.
11. Fill out and mail the warranty registration form.
Typical Cycle Times (minutes)
Listed times are for clean machines. Cycle times at startup will be longer until the system stabilizes.

4. During the Freeze cycle move the curtain and observe that the SW1 or SW2 light on the control board blinks On when the curtain moves away from the evaporator and Off when returned to its normal position.
Note: Moving the curtain during the Freeze cycle has no affect on control function, but will cause water to flow into the cube chute.

Use and Operation

Once started, the ice machine will automatically make ice until the bin or dispenser is full of ice.
When ice level drops, the ice machine will resume making ice.
Caution: Do not place anything on top of the ice machine, including the ice scoop. Debris and moisture from objects on top of the machine can work their way into the cabinet and cause serious damage. Damage caused by foreign material is not covered by warranty.
There are four indicator lights at the front of the machine that provide information on the condition of the machine.

If the De-Scale light is on, the machine has determined that it may need to be cleaned. Contact an authorized Scotsman service agent and have the machine cleaned, de-scaled and sanitized.
During normal operation, if the Clean light begins to blink yellow, the machine in Preservation mode, which initiates a timed freeze in response to short freeze errors. Contact an authorized Scotsman service agent to service the machine immediately. It is likely that the machine needs to be cleaned (de-scaled and sanitized), but may need additional service.

When making ice, air-cooled models will discharge hot air out the back of the cabinet.
Noise

· Seasonal changes in ice used · Planning to sanitize the bin · Faster turnover for fresher ice · Certain dispenser applications where maximum
ice level is not desired

The ice machine will make noise when it is in ice making mode. The compressor, fan motor(s) if air cooled, and water pump all produce some sound. It is also normal to hear some cracking just before the harvest cycle begins. In addition, during the harvest cycle the harvest mechanism may click twice as it

Cleaning, Sanitation and Maintenance

This ice system requires three types of maintenance:
· Remove the build up of mineral scale from the ice machine's water system and sensors. · Sanitize the ice machine's water system and the ice storage bin or dispenser. · Clean condenser
It is the User's responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition. Without human intervention, sanitation will not be maintained. Ice machines also require occasional cleaning of their water systems with a specifically designed chemical. This chemical dissolves mineral build up that forms during the ice making process.

The ice machine's water system should be cleaned and sanitized a minimum of twice per year. Sanitize the ice storage bin as frequently as local health codes require, and every time the ice machine is cleaned and sanitized.

Preparing to Clean:
1. Remove the front panel.
2. Remove the evaporator cover.
Scale Removal:
3. Push and release the Clean button. The yellow Clean light will blink and the display will show C. The machine will harvest any ice, drain the reservoir and begin to refill it.
4. Observe code display, when it blinks the characters "A d 1" immediately go to the next step.
5. Pour the below specified amount Scotsman Clear 1 ice machine scale remover into the reservoir. The unit will circulate the scale remover, then drain and flush it. This will take 35 minutes, then the machine will stop and the display will show O.

What to do before calling for service

Reasons the machine might shut itself off:
· Lack of water. · Freeze cycle takes too long. · Harvest cycle takes too long. · High discharge temperature. · Controller self test failure.

Note: Curtain can be removed & replaced anytime the machine is in a standby mode or when it is in a freeze cycle. However, removal of the curtain during freeze will result in water flowing into the bin. Removal of the curtain during harvest terminates harvest at that point and, if left off, will result in the machine shutting off.

Check the following:

1. Has the water supply to the ice machine or building been shut off? If yes, the ice machine will automatically restart within 25 minutes after water begins to flow to it.

Curtain

2. Has power been shut off to the ice machine? If yes, the ice machine will automatically restart when power is restored.
3. Has someone shut the water off to a water cooled unit? If yes, after the water supply has been restored the ice machine may need to be manually reset.
4. Is the curtain open because some ice is stuck under it? If so, remove the ice and the machine should start in a few minutes.
To Manually Reset the machine.
· Open the switch door
· Push and release the Off button.
· Push and release the On button.
To Shut the Machine Off:
1. Push and hold the Off button for 3 seconds or until the machine stops.
