5.2 POSITIONING
The appliance must be installed in a hygienically clean location; avoid premises such as cellars and storerooms,
because poor hygiene promotes the formation and proliferation of bacteria in the appliance.
The appliance can operate at an ambient temperature of between 10°C and 43°C.
The best performance will be obtained by installing the appliance in a place with an ambient temperature of between
10°C and 35°C and a water temperature of between 3°C and 25°C.
Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and do not install near heat sources.
This appliance:
•must be installed in a place where it can be supervised by skilled personnel
• must not be used outdoors
• must not be installed in damp places or where it is liable to be sprayed with water
• must not be cleaned with jets of water
• must be allowed a clearance of least 5 cm all around
5.3 CONNECTION TO THE WATER MAINS
IMPORTANT:
•the appliance must be connected to the water mains by professionally qualified personnel in accordance with the
Manufacturer’s instructions
•this appliance must be only be supplied with cold water for human consumption (drinking water)
•the operating pressure must be between 0.1 and 0.6 MPa
•a tap must be installed between the water mains and the feed pipe of the appliance, so that the water supply may be shut off if
necessary
•where the feed water is particularly hard, you are advised to install a polyvalent cartridge filter. Any solid particles (e.g. sand)
may be eliminated by installing a mechanical filter, which must be periodically inspected and cleaned. These devices must
comply with the standards in force in the Country of use
•never turn the water supply tap off when the appliance is working
•only new hose-sets supplied with the appliance are to be used to connect the appliance to water mains, old hose-sets should
not be reused
•Is forbidden install the machine to De-ionized or Reverse Osmosis Water
5.3.a FILLING WITH WATER (Fig. 5)
Insert the special seals provided (12) in the two threaded ring nuts (11) of the water supply pipe (9) supplied with the appliance.
Without exerting excessive force (otherwise the unions could crack), firmly tighten one of the threaded ring nuts on the outlet of
the solenoid valve located in the rear of the appliance. The other threaded ring nut must be screwed to the water tap (8); this
too must be provided with a thread.
5.3.b DRAIN (Fig. 5)
Fix the water drain pipe (10) in the housing provided on the rear of the appliance. Make sure that:
• the pipe is a hose
• the internal diameter is 22 mm, as required
• the water drain hose is not throttled at any point throughout its length
• the drain hose slopes downwards by at least 15%
It is advisable to drain the water straight into an open drain trap.
5.4 CONNECTION TO THE ELECTRICITY MAINS
IMPORTANT:
•the appliance must be connected to the electricity mains by professionally qualified personnel in accordance with the
Manufacturer’s instructions
•before connecting the appliance to the electricity mains, make sure that the mains voltage rating corresponds to the value
indicated on the rating plate
E
EN
N
•make sure that the appliance is connected to an efficient earthing system
•make sure that the capacity of the power supply system suits the maximum power value indicated on the rating plate of the
appliance
•the appliance is supplied with a plug, prepare a socket controlled by an omnipolar circuit-breaker (7 in Fig. 4), with a contact-
opening gap of not less than 3 mm, that provides full disconnection under overvoltage category III conditions, sin accordance
with national safety standards currently in force. This switch must be equipped with fuses, with the associated residual current
device positioned in such a way as to be readily accessible. Insert the plug into the socket controlled by the switch (7 in Fig. 4)
•the plug must only be replaced by professionally qualified and authorized personnel, and the new plug must comply with
current national safety standards
•if the appliance comes supplied without a plug and you wish to connect it permanently to the power supply, prepare an omnipolar
circuit-breaker (7 in Fig. 4), with a contact-opening gap of not less than 3 mm, that provides full disconnection under overvoltage
category III conditions, in accordance with national safety standards currently in force. This switch must be equipped with fuses,
with the associated residual current device positioned in such a way as to be readily accessible. This operation must be carried
out by a specialized technician
•make sure that you fully uncoil the power supply cable and check that it is not crushed in any way
•should the supply cable be damaged, it must be replaced by a specialized technician using a special cable available from the
Manufacturer or from the Technical Service Centres
6 START-UP
6.1 CLEANING INTERNAL PARTS
The appliance will have already been cleaned in the factory. However, you are advised to wash the internal parts again before
using the appliance. Make sure that the power supply cable is unplugged before carrying out the above cleaning operation.
See cleaning and sanitizing manual for information regarding cleaning operations.
Use ordinary washing-up liquid or a water and vinegar solution for cleaning operations; after cleaning, rinse thoroughly with cold
water and discard the ice produced during the first 30 minutes after cleaning, together with any ice present in the bin.
It is advisable to avoid using abrasive detergents or powders, since these might damage the finish.
6.2 START-UP
Once the appliance has been correctly connected to the electricity mains, water mains and water drain system, it can be started
up as follows:
a) turn on the water supply tap (8 in Fig. 4)
b) insert the plug (if any) in the socket and switch on the power supply by means of the relative switch fitted during the installation
phase (7 in Fig. 4)
Switch on appliance by pressing the luminous switch (13 in Fig. 3).
For appliances that are connected permanently to the electricity mains, turn on by means of the switch on the outside of the
appliance, fitted during the installation phase.
6.3 CLEANING THE STEEL PARTS
The appliance was cleaned initially in the factory. For subsequent cleaning operations on the steel parts of the machine, comply with the
instructions below:
Do not allow saline solutions to dry or pool on the external steel components of the machine, as this may lead to corrosion.
Avoid contact with ferrous material (scourers, forks, ladles, scrapers, etc.) to prevent corrosion, contamination from ferrous particles
circulating in the receptacle.
Carefully clean the stainless steel parts with a damp cloth, water and soap or common, non-abrasive chlorine or ammonia based
detergents.
7 MAIN CAUSES OF OPERATING FAILURE
Should the appliance fail to produce ice, before calling on the Authorized Technical Service Centre, first check carefully that:
• the water supply tap (8 in Fig. 4), fitted during the installation phase, has been turned on
• electric power is reaching the appliance; the plug (if any) is properly inserted in the socket, the switch (7 in Fig. 4) is in the “ON”
position, and the push button (13 in Fig. 3) is lighted up
Furthermore:
• if there is excessive noise, make sure that the appliance is not touching furniture or sheet metal which can give rise to noise or
vibrations
• should any trace of water appear, check the drain hole of the container to ensure that it is not clogged, that the water fill and
drain pipes are correctly connected and are not throttled or damaged
• make sure that the temperature of the air or water does not exceed the installation limit values (see paragraph 5.2)
• make sure that the water inlet filter is not clogged (see paragraph 9.1)
