stainless-steel design complements any kitchen or bar area and

SPECIFICATIONS
ICE MAKER SOUNDS
Your Personal Chiller Soft Nugget Ice Maker is not like an ordinary
hard ice machine. There are several processes required to create
light, airy soft-textured ice. As a result, there are sounds that
normal to this ice maker:
WHIR - When it is rst turned on, you may notice the sound of the
condenser fan spinning.
BUZZ - When the water pump rst turns on, it may be dry and create
a buzzing sound, which will dissipate when lled with water.
RATTLE - May occur from the ow of the refrigerant and will subside
signicantly once the system has stabilized.
GURGLE - When the refrigerant system shuts off, there may be a brief
gurgle sound as the refrigerant stops owing.
HUM - The compressor is a motor. It produces a low toned humming
sound during operation
CLICK - The rst nuggets produced are the loudest as they are released
into the bottom of the ice bin. As the bin lls, the sound of ice
dropping reduces.
