Installing the Ice Maker
The ice maker should be installed by a licensed plumber to be in accordance with
local electrical and plumbing code requirements.
Before you plug the ice maker in to a power supply, be sure to let it stand upright
for at least 24 hours to allow the compressor’s oils to settle.
Unpacking the Ice Maker
WARNING: Use two more people to move and install the ice maker. Failure to do
so can result in back or other injury.
Carefully remove the packaging materials. Remove any shipping tape and glue
from your ice maker before using. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol,
flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products
can damage the surface of your icemaker. IMPORTANT: Do not remove any
safety, warning, or product information labels from your ice maker.
Types of Installation
This ice maker has been designed for free-standing, recessed, or built-in
installation. In every case, there must be adequate ventilation and access
for service.
Free-standing installation:
A free-standing installation will allow you to install the icemaker in any
place you desire provided you have access to a water supply and a drain.
You must follow the stated instructions for electrical requirements, water
supply and drain, and leveling the icemaker.
Recessed installation:
A recessed installation will allow you to install the ice maker under a
counter or in a kitchen cabinet provided the required clearance space
around the ice maker is followed. This installation has the same
requirements as a built-in installation.
Built-in installation:
It is necessary to allow adequate ventilation space around the unit (make
sure there is at least some ventilation room for the back of the unit). The
following additional items must be observed.
1. Place the ice maker in front of the installation location. Remove the
feet and place the unit flat on the floor or on a platform depending on
your installation requirements.
2. The water supply pipe must be plumbed before connecting to the ice
maker. Install the drain line into your drain.
3. Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply
connection leaks. Tighten any connections (including connections at
the tie-in).
4. If the electrical outlet for the ice maker is behind the cabinet, plug in
the ice maker.
5. Push the ice maker into position.
6. Seal all around the cabinet to the floor with an approved caulking
compound.

Installation Clearance Requirements
* This icemaker should be installed by a licensed
4”
plumber only.
* To ensure proper service access and ventilation,
allow more 4” clearance at rear, and 1/2” at top and
1/2” at sides. The installation should allow the
icemaker to be pulled forward for servicing if
necessary.
Top of Unit
1/2”

* When installing the ice maker under a counter,
follow the recommended spacing dimensions shown.
Place electrical and water supplies and drain fixtures
in the recommended locations as shown.
* Choose a well ventilated area with temperatures
above 55°F and below 90°F.This unit MUST be
installed in an area protected from the elements,
e.g., wind, rain, water spray or drips.
* The icemaker should not be located next to ovens,
grills or other high heat resources.
1/2”
4”
* The ice maker requires a continuous water supply
with a minimum pressure of 0.05Mpa and a static
pressure not to exceed 0.8Mpa. The temperature of
the water feeding into the ice maker should be
between 41°F and 77°F for proper operation. The
ambient operational temperature should be between
55°F and 90°F. Operation outside these
temperatures may result in lowered production or
other adverse effects.
Water Line
Floor Drain
• The unit should be located on a firm and level surface. It is
important for the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. If
needed, you can adjust the height of the ice maker by rotating the
feet. See the “Leveling the Ice Maker” section.
• A standard electrical supply (115 VAC only, 60 Hz, 15 A), properly
grounded in accordance with National Electrical Code and local
codes and ordinances is required.
• IMPORTANT: Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord
between the ice maker and wall or cabinet.

Electrical Requirements
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Never remove the grounding prong from the plug.
Never use an adapter.
Never use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire,
electrical shock, or death
Before you move your icemaker into its final location, it is important to
make sure you have the proper electrical connection:
A standard electrical supply (115 V, 60Hz.), properly grounded in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances, is required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your icemaker, be
provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull
chain.
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amps.
Recommended grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. It is
equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding
plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged
into a mating 3-pronged and grounding-type wall receptacle,
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local
codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it
is the personal responsibility of the customer to have a properly
grounded, 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified
electrician.
5
Water Supply Connections
The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water
supply pressure should be a minimum of 20 psig with a static pressure
not more than 80 psig. (A wall outlet directly behind the ice maker will
make installation easier.)
IMPORTANT:
1. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code
requirements.
2. Make certain that the pipes are not pinched or kinked or damaged
during installation.
3. Check for leaks after connection.
Tools required: ½ in. open-end wrench, Phillips screwdriver
Connecting the water line:
1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long enough to
clear line of water.
2. Find a ½ in. to ¾ in. vertical cold water pipe near the installation
location. The distance should be less than 9 feet. The water supply hose
provided with the ice maker is about 9 feet long.
3. A shut-off valve must be installed to the main water supply. If the water
pipe has a plain piece of copper tubing, attach a ¼” O.D. compression
union to the tubing and remove the nut.
4. Connect nuts of the water supply hose to tap and water inlet valve.
Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half turn with wrench.
5. Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection
leaks. Tighten every connection (including connections at the water inlet).
IMPORTANT: When you connect the water supply hose, pay
attention to the indications of “Water inlet” on the machine.
• In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter can
remove taste and odors as well as particles. Where water is very hard,
softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together.
Deionized water is not recommended.
Drain
NOTE: There is a drain line on the ice maker. Please drain water to
your drain through the drain line provided with ice maker.
1. Locate the floor drain near the ice maker. The distance should be less
than 4.5 feet since the length of the long drain hose provided with the ice
maker is about 4.5 feet.
2. Find the drain hose on the back of ice maker, then insert the other side
of the hose into the drain line.
3. All horizontal runs of drain lines must have a fall of 1/4” per foot. An air
gap will likely be required between the ice maker drain hose and the
drain/waste receptacle. A stand pipe with a trap below it would be
acceptable for the drain/waste receptacle. A floor drain is also acceptable.
4. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice storage bin to check for proper
drainage.
Note: a condensate pump can allow for installation further from your
drain. Consult your plumber for advice.

OPERATION
Final Check List before Operation
1. Have all packing materials and tape been removed from the interior
and exterior of the ice maker?
2. Did you clean the ice storage bin?
3. Have the installation instructions been followed, including connecting
the machine to water and electricity? Does the unit have proper
drainage?
4. Has the machine been leveled?
5. Is the ice maker in a site where the ambient temperature is between
55º F and 90ºF and the water temperature between 41º F and 77º F all
year round?
6. Has the water supply pressure been checked to ensure a minimum of
20 psig with a static pressure not to exceed 80 psig?
7. Is there a clearance of at least 4” at the rear, 1/2” at the top and 1/2” at
the sides for proper air circulation?
8. Has the power supply voltage been checked or tested against the
nameplate rating? And has proper grounding been installed for the ice
maker?
9. Is the ice maker plugged in?
10. Have you turned on the main water supply and the tap?
11. Have you checked for leaks at all water supply connections- and at
the drain?
Operating Method
1. Turn on the water tap, let the water trough fill, then turn the power
switch on the front panel to the ON position. The ice maker will start
working automatically.
2. After the first feeding of water, the machine will automatically go to the
ice making stage, and the sound of spraying water will be heard.
3. Ice will be harvested to the ice storage bin. When the storage bin is
filled to the point that the ice-full sensor is covered, the ice maker will
automatically stop working. The machine will restart making ice once the
storage bin is less than full.
4. Excess water will flow through the drain outlet at the back of the
machine and empty into the floor drain.
IMPORTANT:
• Although the unit has been tested and cleaned at the factory, due to
long-term transit and storage, the first batch of cubes must be discarded.
• Never turn the water supply tap off when the ice maker is working.
• Never touch the evaporator when the machine is running.
• Except to take ice from the unit, keep the door closed to reduce melting
and insure proper ice formation.
7
How the machine Makes Ice
Turn the power switch to the ON position. The machine will automatically
start the ice making stage. There are two distinct cycles: freeze and
harvest. During the freeze cycle, water is sprayed against the evaporator
surface. In the harvest cycle, the ice is released and water enters the
machine. A complete cycle can take 20 to 40 minutes, depending on
temperature and operating conditions.
Freeze: During the freeze cycle the compressor is pumping refrigerant,
the fan motor is blowing air, and the water pump is circulating water.
When the batch of ice has been fully formed, the ice maker stops the
freeze cycle and begins the harvest cycle.
Harvest: During the harvest cycle the compressor is still operating, but
the water pump has stopped. Two other components have been
energized: the hot gas valve and the water inlet valve. These two valves
open and warm up the freezing surface, allowing the cubes to fall into the
bin. The freeze cycle will restart when all the cubes have been harvested.
How the machine uses the water
The ice maker begins with a fixed charge of water that is contained in the
water sump. As the water is sprayed against the freezing evaporator
surface, the portion of water that does not contain mineral impurities will
freeze and stick to the ice cube molds. The water containing impurities
falls back into the water sump. Gradually, during the freezing portion of
the ice-making cycle, the water in the sump will become highly
concentrated with mineral impurities. During the harvest cycle, fresh
water flows into the machine to dilute the bin water and rinse the
concentrated minerals down the drain.

Normal Sounds
Your new icemaker may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Most of
the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces like the floor, walls can make
the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes
the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be making
them.
Ratting noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the
water line, Items stored on top of the icemaker can also make
noises.
The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-
pitched sound.
Water running from the evaporator to the water bin may make a
splashing sound.
You will hear a swooshing sound when the water valve opens to
fill the water sump for each cycle.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the
refrigerant flowing in your icemaker.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the
condenser fan.
During the harvest cycle, you may hear the of ice cubes falling into
the ice storing bin.
When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water running
continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a rinse cycle
before it begins to make ice.
Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage
If the ice maker will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to
another place, it will be necessary to drain the system of water.
1. Shut off the water supply at the main water source.
2. Disconnect the water supply line from the water inlet.
3. Disconnect the drain pipe to the drain line or floor drain.
4. Allow the ice maker to run for an hour or more until all remaining ice
cubes have been ejected from the ice maker assembly.
5. Shut off the electric supply at the main electrical power source.
6. Screw off the nut of the water drain hole at the back of the machine,
drain out water residue completely (do not loosen or screw off the nut at
other times), then tighten the nut after finishing.
7. Drop the door open to allow for air circulation and prevent mold and
mildew.
8. Leave the water supply line and power cord disconnected until ready to
reuse.
IMPORTANT:
• Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet.
• Never unplug the unit by pulling on the plug.
9
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The icemaker must be thoroughly cleaned if it has been
left unused for a long time. Follow carefully any
instructions provided for cleaning or use of sanitizing
solution. Do not leave any solution inside the icemaker
after cleaning.
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top
performance, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on
normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets,
or there are other special considerations.
Note: Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is not ice: objects
like wine or beer bottles are not only unsanitary, but the labels may slip
off and plug up the drain.
What should be kept clean
There are 5 things to keep clean:
1. The exterior.
2. The interior.
3. The condenser
4. Water distribution tube
5. The ice-making system
Exterior Cleaning
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm
water solution such as 1 oz of dishwashing liquid mixed with 2 gallons of
warm water. Do not use solvent based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft
sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to
prevent water spotting. If the door panel is stainless finish, it can discolor
when exposed to chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless finish with a
cloth dampened with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Never
use an abrasive cleaning agent.
EdgeStar Full Size Ice Maker
10
Interior Cleaning
The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the water trough
before the ice maker is used for the first time and reused after stopping for an
extended period of time. It is usually convenient to sanitize the trough after the
ice making system has been cleaned and the ice storage bin is empty.
1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Open the door and with a clean cloth wipe down the interior of the unit with a
sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of household bleach and 2 gallons of hot
water (95º to 115ºF).
3. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
4. Reconnect power to the unit.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other utensil.
DO NOT use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on
the interior. These cleaners may transmit taste to the ice
cubes, or damage or discolor the interior.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The sprinkler should only be cleaned when you find
that some of the ice cubes are improperly shaped during ice making.
Cleaning the ice making system should follow cleaning of the sprinkler.
1. Disconnect power to the unit and open the door.
2. Take out the row of flake covers by snapping one end up and pulling
forward.
11
3. Remove the slideway from the water sump.
4. Find the sprinkler arm and raise it. Disconnect it from the water tube
which is connected at the back of the sprinkler arm.
5. A de-scaling solution can be prepared in a plastic basin with Nu-
Calgon Nickel-Safe Ice Machine Cleaner. Mix 4 ounces of the ice
machine cleaner per gallon of warm water.
Remove the sprinkler arm from the interior. Thoroughly clean the
sprinkler arm by soaking it in the basin filled with the de-scaling solution
until it is free of any deposit; use a soft brush to remove any thick or
stubborn residue and to help the dissolving action. Rinse under a stream
of tap water.
6. Wipe down the interior of the water sump with the de-scaling solution
and warm water. Rinse thoroughly with clear water.
7. Reassemble the sprinkler arm, slideway and row of flake covers.
8. Perform steps 1, 3, 6, 7 and 8 of the Ice Making System Cleaning
procedure below.
EdgeStar Full Size Ice Maker
12
Condenser Cleaning
A dirty or clogged condenser prevents proper airflow, reduces ice making
capacity, and causes higher than recommended operating temperatures that
may lead to component failure. Have the condenser cleaned at least once every
six months.
1. Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power.
2. Remove the 2 screws at the bottom of the front cover and gently pull it off.
3. Locate the condenser filter. This can be lifted out and cleaned with a brush or
flowing water.
4. Remove dirt and lint condenser fins and
the unit compartment with a brush
attachment on a vacuum cleaner.
5. Put back the filter and reassemble the
front cover.
6. Plug in the icemaker or reconnect
power.
DO NOT touch the condenser fins. They are sharp and can be
damaged easily.
13
Ice-making system Cleaning
Minerals that are removed from water during the freezing cycle will
eventually form a hard scaly deposit in the water system. Cleaning the
system regularly helps remove the mineral scale buildup. How often you
need to clean the system depends upon how hard your water is or how
effective your filtration may be. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal. (4
to 5 grains/liter), you may need to clean the system as often as every 6
months.
1. Turn off the power to the ice maker. Keep the ice maker connected to
the water supply and drain pipe.
2. Open the door and scoop out all of the ice cubes. Either discard them
or save them in an ice chest or cooler.
3. Remove the 2 screws in the front cover and push forward to remove
the front cover. Locate the control box. Notes: Do not use too much
force, as the wire leads connected to the power switch can be
inadvertently disconnected. Use care in the area of the control box.
Do not expose it to moisture.
4. Turn on the power to the ice maker. Pour 8 oz. of nickel-safe ice
machine cleaner solution into the water sump. Add 8 oz. of tap water.
After about 5 minutes, press down the “Clean” button on the Control
Box. The machine will run the Automatic Clean mode.
5. Allow 30 minutes for proper cleaning. After cleaning, shut off the
power switch, and unscrew the nut of the water-draining hole on the
rear of the unit. Drain off the waste water to some container, and then
screw the nut on tightly when the waste water is fully drained off.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 (without Ice Maker Cleaning Solution) to rinse
the ice making system 3 times.
NOTE: The use of the Ice Maker Cleaner Solution in the water sump
during the rinse is not needed.
7. Prepare a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of household bleach
and 2 gallons of hot water (95º to 115º F). Remove the flake covers
and slideway from the water sump and wipe the entire bin inside and
out, covering the entire surface of the walls.
8. Fill a spray bottle with the sanitizing solution and spray all corners and
edges, making sure to cover all surfaces with the solution. Soak the
flake covers and slideway in the solution and put back in place after
drying.
9. Allow the solution to be in contact for at least 3 minutes, then dry.
10. Repeat step 6 to rinse the ice making system one more time.
11. Reassemble the front cover.
12. Turn on the power again. The machine will return to the regular ice
making mode.
Important: Discard the first batch of ice.
