 It is strongly recommended that a water filter be used. A filter, if it is of the

proper type, can remove taste and odors as well as particles. Some water is very hard,

and softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. Deionized

water is not recommended.

 The ice maker must be installed with electrical and water connections in accordance

with all state and local codes.

 The unit should be located on a firm and level surface. It is important for the ice maker

to be leveled in order to work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of the ice

maker by revolving the caster. See the Leveling the Ice Maker section.

 A standard electrical supply (115V AC only, 60Hz, 15A), properly grounded in

accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is

required.

IMPORTANT: Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the icemaker and wall

or cabinet.

Electrical Requirements

Operating temperature should be within the range of normal room temperatures.

Normal operating water temperature should be between 41°F (5°C) and 90°F

(32°C). Operation of the ice maker for extended periods out- side of these

normal temperature ranges may affect production capacity.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.

Never remove the ground 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.

10

Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is important to make sure you

have the proper electrical connection:

A standard electrical supply (115V AC only, 60Hz, 15A), properly grounded in accordance

with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required. The ice

maker should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet.

It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice maker, be provided. Use a

receptacle that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.

The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes.

Recommended grounding method

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance 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.

Leveling the Ice Maker

It is important for the ice maker to be leveled in order

to work properly. Otherwise water will not flow

properly through the evaporator (ice mold). The

ice production will be less than normal, and may

be noisy. The unit can be raised or lowered by rotating

the plastic sheaths around each of the four rolling

casters on the bottom of the machine. If you

find that the surface is not level, rotate the casters

until the ice maker becomes level. You may need

to make several adjustments to level it. We

recommend using a carpenter’s level to check

the machine.

1. Place a carpenter’s level on top of the unit to see if the ice maker is level from front to

back and side to side.

2. Adjust the height of the casters as follows:

Turn the leveling casters to the right to lower that side of the ice maker.

Turn the leveling casters to the left to raise that side of the ice maker.

You will find that the casters make it easy for one person to move the machine. This is

useful for cleaning and sanitizing the surface on which the ice maker is installed because it

allows you to move the unit and have easy access to the surface to be cleaned.

IMPORTANT: When the ice maker is ready to be installed in a cabinet or directly on the

floor, you must adjust the feet to level the ice maker and lock the rollers. If the floor is

level, just revolve the two front feet to touch the floor.

1. Using a flathead screwdriver, separate the axis from Hinge 1. Set aside.

2. Open the door about 20°around the axis of Bottom Hinge 2, then lift the door off

Bottom Hinge 2 and set door aside.

To replace door on hinges:

1. Using a flathead screwdriver, remove the plug buttons from the screw holes opposite

the door hinges, top and bottom. Set aside.

2. Replace the axis on the Hinge 1 and tighten it firmly. Remove Hinge 1 and place it on

the opposite bottom side.

3. Remove Hinge 2 and place it on the opposite top side. Separate the axis from Hinge 2

and set it aside.

4. Align the door on Bottom Hinge 1 and replace axis on Hinge 2. Tighten it firmly.

Place the handle on the side of the door away from the hinge side.

5. Push the plug buttons into the original screw holes.

See Figure below.

12

Water Supply

The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water supply pressure

should be a minimum of 15 psig with a static pressure not more than 80 psig. (A wall

outlet directly behind the ice machine will make installation easier.)

IMPORTANT:

1. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.

Professional installation is recommended.

2. Make certain the hoses 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 the 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 the nut of the water supply hose to the tap, and connect the other end with the

water inlet. 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 connection at the water inlet).

IMPORTANT: When you connect the water supply hose and the drain hose, pay attention

to the indications of “Water inlet” and “Drain outlet” on the machine.

13

Drain

You must connect the drain line before using the ice maker. Follow the steps below.

There are two types of ice machine modes, one that drains by gravity and one that has an

internal drain pump.

This unit can pump out water up to a rise of 1.5m (59”)

or over a horizontal length of 1.5m (59”).

Connecting the drain line:

NOTE: If there is a drain line near the ice maker, the best choice is to drain water to

the drain line through the drain water hose provided with ice maker.

1. Locate the floor drain near the ice maker. The distance should be less than 5 feet since

the length of the long drain water hose provided with the ice maker is about 5 feet.

2. Find the drain outlet on the back of ice maker. Connect the water draining hose to the

drain outlet, and insert the other end of the hose into the drain line.

NOTE: Never allow the drain hose to hang or loop higher than the floor of the ice

storage bin.

3. All horizontal runs of drain lines must have a fall of ¼” per foot. An air gap will likely

be required between the ice maker drain tube and the drain/waste receptacle. A

standpipe with a trap below it would be acceptable for the drain/waste receptacle. A

floor drain is also acceptable. If this is not possible, the use of the condensate pump is

recommended.

4. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice storage bin to check for leaks in the drainage system.

Tighten any connections that leak.

IMPORTANT: This ice maker is not a freezer.

Infrequent drainage will

cause a high rate of melting in the ice storage bin.

15

Installation Types

This ice maker has been designed for Mobile (free-standing) installation. However, it can

also be Enclosed (as under a cabinet) or Built-in (sealed to the floor). In any case, there

must be adequate air space at the front of the unit for ventilation.

Mobile installation:

A mobile installation will allow you to install the ice maker free-standing in any place you

desire provided you have access to a water supply. You must follow the stated instructions

for

a. Electrical requirements

b. Water supply

c. Leveling the ice maker.

Enclosed Installation:

An enclosed installation will allow you to install the ice maker under a cabinet or in a

kitchen cabinet provided the required clearance space around the ice maker is respected.

This installation has the same requirements as a mobile installation.

Built-in installation:

If this method of installation is chosen, it will still be necessary to allow adequate

ventilation space around the unit. The following additional items must be observed.

1. Place ice maker in front of 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 line must be plumbed before connecting to the ice maker.

3. Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection leaks. Tighten

every connection (including connection at the water inlet).

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.

IMPORTANT: Be sure the drain hose is connected and fed into the drain line before the

ice maker is moved into its final position.

16

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?

4. Has the machine been leveled?

5. Is the ice maker in a site where the ambient temperature is within the range of normal

room temperatures and the water temperature between 41°F (5°C) and 90°F (32°C) all

year round?

6. Has the water supply pressure been checked to ensure a minimum of 15 psig with a

static pressure not to exceed 80 psig?

7. Is there a clearance of at least 2½” (64 mm) at the rear, and 1/4” (6.35 mm) at the top

and 3/16” (4.8 mm) 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 in the ice maker?

9. Is the ice maker plugged in?

11. Have you checked for leaks at all water supply connections?

Operating Method

1. Turn on the water tap, let the water trough fill, then press the ON/OFF button on the front

panel. The ice maker will start working automatically.

2. After 3 minutes, the machine will automatically go to the ice-making stage, and the

sound of water flowing will be heard.

3. When the batch of ice has been fully formed

, ice will automatically be harvested to the

Bin full stage Ice making stage

Ice harvest stage

17

ice storage bin.

4. When the ice storage bin is full, the sheet of cubes will not fall completely and will

hold the bin-full probe open. The machine stops making ice automatically.

5. The unit will start making ice again after the ice cubes are removed. Then the bin-full

probe swings back to operating position.

6. Bin light (if present): The bin light is controlled by a magnetic reed switch that has

been installed on the inner surface of the door. It is turned On or Off automatically

with the opening or closing of the door.

7. Pump Water Drain system (if used): As soon as the ice melt water or other surplus

overflow water in the water reservoir reaches the maximum level, the water level

switch closes and transmits a low-voltage current to the PC board. The PC board

energizes the water drain pump for 20 seconds, pumping out most of the excess water

into the water reservoir.

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 evaporator when unit is running!

 Except to take ice from the unit, keep the door closed to reduce melting and insure

proper ice formation.

How the machine makes ice

Set the ON/OFF button to the ON position. The machine will automatically go to the ice

making stage.

There are two distinct cycles: ice freeze and harvest.

The freeze cycle happens when water flows to the evaporator surface. The harvest cycle is

when the ice is released and water enters the machine. A complete cycle takes about 20

minutes, but it depends 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 the harvest cycle begins.

Harvest: During the harvest cycle the compressor is still operating, but the water pump

has stopped. The hot gas valve opens, diverting hot refrigerant gas into the evaporator. The

hot refrigerant gas warms the evaporator, causing the cubes to slide as a unit off the

evaporator and into the storage bin. The freeze cycle will restart when all the cubes have

been harvested.

18

How the machine uses the water

The ice maker begins with a fixed charge of water that is contained in the water trough. As

the water flows to the freezing evaporator surface, the portion of water that does not

contain mineral impurities freezes and sticks to the ice cube molds. The water containing

impurities falls back into the water trough. During the ice making process, fresh water

enters into the water trough continuously as the water in the trough freezes continuously in

the evaporator.

How the drain system operates when water is pumped out

The components of the Pump-Out Water Drain System are

 Water reservoir

 PC Board & Water level switch 1, 2

 Water Drain Pump

OPERATION

 All water coming from the overflow and the melted ice is

collected in the water reservoir.

 As soon as the water in the reservoir reaches the maximum

level, the water level switch 1 closes, transmitting a low

voltage current to the PC Board.

 The PC board activates the water drain pump for 20 seconds,

pumping out most of the water contained in the water reservoir.

 The water can be pumped out up a rise of to 1.5m (59”) or

over a horizontal length of 1.5m (59”).

 If water level switch 2 closes, transmitting a low-voltage

current to the PC board, the PC board activates the buzzer

alarm, informing you that the drain pump, water level

switch or drain tube may be malfunctioning.

NOTE:

The outlet of the drain hose

must be raised higher than the

water surface to prevent the

drained water from flowing

If alarm buzzer sounds, turn

off the ice maker and the

water supply, remove all ice

from storage bin, and wipe up

any water that may have

overflowed. Check if there is

any water in water trough at

back of unit; if no water,

drainage pump may not be

receiving the proper amount

of power. Check power

source. If the problem can be

corrected, turn on the unit

again. Also check that none

of the water lines are kinked.

If the problem remains,

contact SUMMIT Customer

Service.
