Remove Packaging
Your ice machine has been packed for shipment with
all parts that could be damaged by movement securely
fastened. Cut the banding material at the bottom of the
carton, unfold the cartoning at the bottom and remove
the carton from the appliance. Remove the plastic bag,
styrofoam corner posts and any tape holding the door
closed and internal components in place.
The owners manual is shipped inside the ice machine in
a plastic bag along with the warranty registration card.
Important
Keep your carton packaging until your ice machine has
been thoroughly inspected and found to be in good con-
dition. If there is damage, the packaging will be needed
as proof of damage in transit. Afterwards please dispose
of all items responsibly in particular the plastic bags
which can be a suffocation hazard.
If the unit was shipped or has been laying on its back for
any period of time allow the ice machine to sit upright for a
period of at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will as-
sure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the ice machine
in immediately may cause damage to internal parts.
It is important you send in your warranty registration card
immediately after taking delivery of your ice machine or you
can register online at www.marvelrefrigeration.com.
The following information will be required when registering
your unit.
Model Number

Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the
past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still danger-
ous. Even if they sit out for “just a few days”.
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow
the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
Take off the doors or remove the drawers.•
Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily•
climb inside.

INSTALLING YOUR ICE MACHINE
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your
appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will
be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To
assure your product performs to specifications the recom-
mended installation location temperature range is from 55
to 80°F(13 to 27°C) for indoor built in units, 55 to 90°F
(13 to 32°C) for indoor freestanding units.
Outdoor Installation
Only the 3OiMT model is suitable for outdoor installations.
A ground fault circuit interrupter electrical receptacle is to
be used to supply electrical power to the refrigerator for
outdoor applications. Contact an electrician if you need
to install one to supply electrical power to your outdoor
wine cellar. Do not install in an environment where the unit
will be exposed to direct sun exposure as this may result in
unsatisfactory performance.
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front section of the
unit. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.
Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around
the unit as long as the grille and door access remain unob-
structed.
Figure 2
Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the ice•
machine. Doing so may cause an electrical shock,
which may result in severe injury or death.
This unit should not, under any circumstances, be•
ungrounded.
Grounding Method
This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord
that has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be
plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accor-
dance with the National Electrical Code and applicable lo-
cal codes and ordinances (see Figure 2). If the circuit does
not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility
and obligation of the customer to exchange the existing
receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code
and applicable local codes and ordinances. The third
ground prong should not, under any circumstances, be cut
or removed.
Electrical Connection
115 volts, 3 amps running max. 15 amp dedicated circuit
required. 3 prong grounded receptacle required.
Leveling Legs
Front Grille,
keep this
area open.
Figure 1
Do not use an extension cord
with this appliance.
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the
front grille provide air to flow into and exit from the refrig-
erator condenser. For this reason it is important this area to
not be obstructed and be kept clean. Marvel does not rec-
ommend the use of custom made grilles as air flow may be
restricted because of inadequate openings. (See Figure 1).
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the unit
should be set so the unit is firmly positioned on the floor
and level from side to side and front to back. Turn leveling
legs clockwise to raise unit, counterclockwise to lower it.
(See Figure 1).

INSTALLING THE DRAIN PLUMBING
Drain Plumbing
Your ice machine uses a gravity drain (Figure 3) that re-
quires 5/8” I.D. tubing from the back of the ice machine
to a plumbed connection to a sanitary sewer. Remove the
access panel to plumb in drain connection. Gravity drain
location for built-in units can be within the area shown
in Figure 5. An optional drain pump (Figure 4) can be
purchased for your ice machine if a gravity drain is not ac-
cessible. See page 5 for optional drain pump installation.
Observe and follow all local codes when installing ice
machine.
Failure to use adequate drainage system will result in
surrounding water damage and/or poor ice production.

The Marvel Drain Pump is designed to remove drain water
from ice machines installed in areas without direct drain-
age access. The sealed reservoir pump collects the melted
ice water and pumps it to a maximum lift of eight (8) feet
through 3/8” I.D. vinyl tubing to a drain.
This pump has been evaluated for use with water
only.
NOTE: Despite the ease of installation, reasonable care
and safe methods should be practiced. Do NOT work
with energized electrical equipment in a wet area. Read
and follow the installation instructions listed in this
manual.

OPERATION, CARE, AND CLEANING OF YOUR ICE MACHINE
Operation (Turning on the ice machine)
Once the drain and water supply are hooked up, and the
ice machine is in place and leveled plug in the service cord.
The ice machine is shipped with the selector switch in the
“OFF” position. Place the switch to the “ON” position to
turn on the ice machine. The switch is located in the front
grille, see page 16 Figure 18 for location.
Your ice machine is unique in how it forms ice with fraction-
al freezing to form a slab of ice that is clear and has less
mineral content than the water it is produced from. This is
accomplished by running water over the cold evaporator
plate which gradually freezes the water to produce the ice
slab. Mineral deposits are left in the reservoir.
When the ice slab reaches the correct thickness deter-
mined by the temperature of the evaporator plate, the
electronic control switches to the harvest cycle to harvest
the ice. During the harvest cycle, the ice slab falls from the
evaporator to the ice grid cutter. Here, the ice slab is cut
into 3/4” squares by the grid cutter’s heated wires. During
the harvest cycle, the drain valve will remain open for 45
seconds to drain the reservoir of remaining deposits. After
that, the water valve will open for two (2) minutes providing
two (2) quarts of water to the reservoir for the next produc-
tion cycle.
The ice machine will keep producing ice until the ice ma-
chine’s bin is full and will restart automatically when ice
needs to be replenished in the bin.
Care of the Ice Machine
Avoid leaning on the cabinet door. You may bend the1.
door hinge or tip the unit.
Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming or mop-2.
ping near the front of the unit. Damage to the grille
and/or switch can occur.
Periodically clean the inside of the ice machine compo-3.
nents and inside of the unit.
Periodically check and/or clean the front grille and4.
condenser coils as needed.
If your ice machine has either a stainless steel door5.
and/or cabinet, to keep it looking its best, we recom-
mend periodically applying a stainless steel cleaner
and a non-abrasive stainless steel polish. This is espe-
cially important for outdoor applications and locations
near salt-water environments.
Cleaning the Ice Machine
Some impurities will remain and build up in the ice ma-
chine and stick to the ice machine’s parts over time. This
build-up must be removed for proper ice production, ice
quality, and ice machine life. Your ice machine is equipped
with a cleaning mode that will help in cleaning out these
impurities.
The impurities will need to be cleaned of this build-up
regularly (at the very least, annually), depending on use
and water hardness. Use a nickel safe ice machine cleaner,
including but not limited to the following brands. Ice machine
cleaners are available at most appliance retailers or through
the cleaner manufacturers website.
Kirby’s Certified ice machine cleaner, 100% nickel safe
Nu-Calgon nickel safe ice machine cleaner
Franklin Machine Products nickel safe ice machine cleaner
To clean the ice machine:
Switch the selector switch to the “OFF” position.1.
Remove the drain plug at the bottom of the reservoir to2.
drain any remaining water and then reinstall.
Access to the reservoir can be obtained by removing the3.
front panel screws and the front panel. Determine the
proper amount of cleaner from the ice machine cleaner
manufacturer’s mixture ratio based on three (3) quarts
of water (refer to the manufacturer’s directions). Add the
recommended cleaning solution to the reservoir of the
ice machine.
Replace the front cover panel and close the door.4.
Switch the selector switch on the grille of the ice machine5.
to the “CLEAN” position. Three (3) quarts of water will
automatically be added to the cleaning solution.
The total cleaning time will end in 49 minutes. The6.
cleaning cycle will automatically rinse the evaporator
plate and also drain the cleaning solution and rinse the
reservoir with water.
7. After the cleaning cycle has ended, remove the front pan-
el again and check that the build-up has been removed.
The evaporator plate should be clean, shiny, and smooth
to the touch. If build-up is still visible, repeat the clean-
ing cycle above. If build-up is removed, continue below.

8. Remove the distributor tube, hose clamp, hose and its
rubber ends.
9. Thoroughly clean the inside of the distributor tube and
the spray holes. You can use the same cleaning solution
as before and an old toothbrush to reach the inside of
the distributor tube.
10. Reinstall the rubber ends, hose, and hose clamp to the
distributor and then reinstall the distributor tube to the
evaporator with the spray holes pointed to the bottom of
the evaporator plate. Reinstall the front cover panel with
the two (2) front panel screws.

11. Clean the ice machine’s interior, ice scoop, interior
door panel and door gasket with mild soap and water.
Using two (2) tablespoons of baking soda in one (1)
quart of warm water while cleaning will help remove
odors. Rinse with fresh water. DO NOT USE ANY
ABRASIVE CLEANING PRODUCTS.
Your ice machine is now clean and sanitized and may be
put back into operation by switching the selector switch to
the “ON” position.
Things to Remember
Allow your ice machine to run for 24-48 hours to ac-•
cumulate ice in the ice machine’s bin.
Unit will cycle often between ice production and ice•
harvest cycles.
Your unit will automatically shut down when the ice bin•
is full.
Unplug your ice machine before working on the unit.•
Keep your ice machine clean for proper ice quality,•
production, and unit life.
Room and water temperatures will greatly affect the•
output of ice in your unit (see Table C). Ice will also
melt away, especially at the start of an empty bin, but
will slow down as ice accumulates.

Unit does not operate.
1. The unit is unplugged. Plug in the unit.
2. Breaker is tripped or fuse is blown. Reset breaker or replace fuse. Check to make sure
there is not a short in the electrical circuit.
3. Ice machine selector switch is in
the “OFF” position.
Set the rocker switch on the grille of the ice machine to
the “ON” position.
Unit operates but does
not produce ice.
1. The unit has just been started and
it has been less than 6 hours.
Ice produced when the unit is initially started will melt off
in the bin. Ice will accumulate in the bin. In 6 hours,
there can be a few cubes in the bin. This is normal
operation.
2. Typical ice production cycle can
take up to 1.5 hours. Initial start-up
cycles can be longer.
Check the unit in 24 hours for ice accumulation in the
bin.
3. The selector switch is in he “OFF”
or “CLEAN” position.
Set the rocker switch on the grille of the ice machine to
the “ON” position.
4. No water in the reservoir.
Make sure that the reservoir drain plug is installed.
Check the water line to the unit to make sure it is on and
that there are no restrictions or kinks in the line. Check
all filters to make sure they are not restricted or plugged.
5. Distributor tube is restricted. See “CLEANING YOUR ICE MACHINE” section for
cleaning the unit for proper operation.

unit.
8. Room and/or water temperature is
too warm.
Clean the condenser with a vacuum and brush attach-
ment. Move the unit to an area where ambient tem-
perature is below 90 degrees F. The unit should not be
placed next to a heat source such as an oven. Check
for cold water connection.
9. Leaking drain valve.
See “CLEANING YOUR ICE MACHINE” section for
cleaning the unit. This will also dissolve and flush out
foreign material in the drain valve causing it to leak.
10. Inadequate drain system.
Restriction in drain lines will cause ice in the bin to melt.
If using a gravity drain, make certain there are no kinks
or restrictions in the drain lines. If using a drain pump,
check the inlet screen, discharge line, and vent line for
any build-up or restrictions.
11. Grid cutter is unplugged. Plug in the grid cutter so that ice slabs can be cut into
cubes.
12. Circulation pump is unplugged. Plug in the circulation pump so that water from the res-
ervoir can be circulated over the evaporation plate.

Ice cubes are too small
(less than 1/2 inch
thick).
1. Low ice consumption.
Ice is slowly melting in the ice bin and will affect the
size of the ice cubes. This is normal operation. When
the ice bin needs to be replenished, cubes will return to
regular size.
2. Not enough water in reservoir.
Make sure that the reservoir drain plug is installed prop-
erly. Check the water line to the unit to make sure there
are no restrictions or kinks in the line. Check all filters
to make sure they are not restricted or plugged.

5. Inadequate drain system.
Restriction in the drain lines will cause the ice in the bin
to melt to a thinner cube. If using a gravity drain, make
certain there are no kinks or restrictions in the drain
lines. If using a drain pump, check the inlet screen,
discharge line, and vent line for any build-up or restric-
tions.
6. Leaking drain valve.
See “CLEANING YOUR ICE MACHINE” section for
cleaning the unit. This will also dissolve and flush out
foreign material in the drain valve causing it to leak.
7. Room temperature is too warm. Move to an area where temperature is below 90 de-
