IMPORTANT SA GUARDS
Before the ice maker is used, it must be properly positiormI and installed as
d_cnbed _mthis rmm::M; _ read the manua! caref!atiy, Franklin Industries
strongly recommends that you have a professional install your new machine.
The warranty may be affected or voided hv an ineorr_t installation. To
reduce the risk of fire, electrical struck or imjurywhen using tP_ i_,'_..maker,
follow basic prccamiora, ha:hlding tlac following:

•Plug into agrotmdcd 3-prov.g outlet. Do not remove grourdi_ proog, do not u_ an. adv.p_.
ard do not use an extcmion cord.
• It isrecon-an_aded that aseparate circuit, serving oniy)'our ice maker_ be provided, Use
receptacles that cannot be tunm] off by a switch or pul! chain.
,, Do_.not eorarect or dJsc_t the electric plug when your_ are w_.
- Never unplug the ice .maker by puUhag on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and puii
straight out ii'omthe outlet.
• Nev_ c!e_u ice mak_ parts v,_h _Tanable fluids. Do ___"t_am or usc g_,solh-_e or other
flammable x,apo_ and nqmas in the vicinity of tins or any other appliance. The tomes can
create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Belbre proceeding with cleaning and maintermrme oper_dions, make sure the power !ine of the
unit _ discmnnccigd and tim water iine is shut off. (EXCEPTION: When cleaning the
_" s ice making and water systems_ see pages 18 -! 9.)
•Before operating, put al! the enclosure panels back into their original places.
•Do not touch the evaporator with your hand when the machine is operating.
- Unplug the ice ma_k_ or discomaeet power bef.:yr¢ c!eaning or sere_icing. Failu_ne to do so can
result in eie_ctrical shock or _.
•Do not attempt to repair or tepiaee any peat ofyo ,ur ice maker unless it is speeifieaiiy
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified !echniciano
-Use two or n_are _pie !o n,K)ve and install ice maker. Failure to &) _) can result in back or
other i@ay.
• To ensure proper ventilation for yo_ ice maker, the front of the _ must be complete!y
unobstructed, Choose awell-ventilated ,area with temperatures above 5..IWF(!O_C) and below
100°F (38°C). This u._ _o_J-ST _ i._talled ha an area protected from €.he elements, _ch as
wind, rain, water spray or drips.
•Th_ ice mak_ should not be locatty3 next to ow-_ns, grills or other sounds ofhig_h b,_,_at.
-The ice maker must be _ed with all electrical and water connections in accordance with s*.me
and local cedes. A standard electrical supply (! ! 5 VAC only, 60 Hz, ! 5 A), properly grounded in
accordm_e with the National Electfiea! Code and local codes and ordinm'_es, is requ_.
- Do not kink or phach power supply cord or drain lines between ice maker and c_b'met.
° The fuse (or circuit bre_,&¢r) size shouid be i 5 amperes.
g it is im!mrtant for the ice maker to be leveled in order to work properly, You may need to make
level lt o
serial adjusLments to ' :"
-A!! insta!lations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
• Make certain_ that the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.
•Check for _aks after connection.
,, Remm,'e the packing malerL-zalz _ e_ the ice maker before using.
°Turn on the water supply tap before switching on the ice maker. Never turn the water supply
tapoffvchen the ice maker isworking.
-Except to take ice .c-_,_m the unit, keep t__hedoor closed in ord_ to reduce ice melting ,-rod to
promote proper ice formation.

. Although the u_ _qasbeen tested at the factor'y, due to long-term transit arm storage, the first,
•batch of cubes m_ be discarded.
•if the ice maker wil! not be us_ for along time, b_fore the next use it must be thoroughly
c_Maned.FotMw earef!aUy any insm_ctions pro-cRied for cleaning or _¢e of sanitizing solution.
Do not leave any solution inside the ice maker after cleaning.
•DO NOT touch the condenser fuls. Thecondenser fm_are sharp and can be,easily damaged.
• DO NOT use solvem-based cleaning agents or abmaiv_ on the im,,,'_r. Ttm_ ehmm_ may
transmit taste to the ice cubes, or -dare,age or discolor the interior.
• The i¢¢,machine cleaner contains acids, DO NOT use or mix with any other so'lvera-ba."_sed
cleaner products. Use rubber gloves to _otect handz. C_r¢lhl!y read the _i_.a! salbty
_tions on _ comainer of the ice machine ctemaer_
-Do rot use this apparatus for other than its intended _.
SA F_ THESE INSTR UCT!ONS
Eleetri'ea! Cozt_
Do not, imder a__nycircum__ances, cut or remove the t2_d (ground) prong from the power cord_
For personal _safety, _ appiiar_e must be properly grounded. The power cord of this applimnee
is equipped vdth a 3-prong grounding plug that mates with a standard 3-prong grounding wall
outlet to minimize the possibility of eieetrie s,hoek hazard from the appliance. Have the waU
omtet and e_mt checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
When a s!andard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your r_ponsibility amt obligmion to
have it replaced with a properly grotwaJed 3-prong wall om!et.
The ice maker should always be pl,agged into its own -individual elect_ outlet wifieh has a
voltage rathag that, matches the raring label on the appliance. _s provktes the best performance
and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could crease a tL_ l-_rd from
overheated wires. Never unplug your ice maker by pulling on the power cord. _Always grip the
plug firmly and pui,l _traight out from the omtet. Repair or _place immediately a.!!power cords
that have become frayed or o_i_e damaged. Do not _ a €o,"d t_ shows cracks or .abrasion
damage along ks length or at either end. V_r__enmoving _d_eice maker, be careful not to damage
the power cord.

There are two _stinct cycles: Freeze and Harvest° During the Freeze cycle, water flows to Ibe
ev_rJorah-_r surface. !n Ehe Harve._t cycle, the ice is released a_A water enters the machine. A
complete cycle can take 15 to 40 minutes, deptmd_ on mbierit temperature arid oper_d:mg
co_itioas.
Frce_: Daring the Froze cycle the €;ompre_sor is pump_ refrigemat, the fan motor is blowing
air_ and the water pump is circulating water. When _e batch of ice has been fi.fltyformed_
t-be-_¢em,_ker st_,-e¢_the Freeze cye!e and begins the Harvest cycle.

scaly deposit in the v,mer system Cleaning the s3"stem reguhriy helps remove the minerai scale
buildup. How often you need to clean 1thesystem depends on _howhard your wa1_is or how
effective your filtration may be. With hard water of 15 to 20 graimi gallon (4 to 5 grains/liter),
you may need to clean the system as often as ev_,,ry 3 rrKmths.
