ICE MAKING PROCESS
The WS15000 will start making ice when the safety switch is depressed.
Ice-full sensors and reservoir sensors will regulate the process. Water is
drawn from either the RO, or from the reservoir below the ice bin.
Melt water is returned to the reservoir where it is disinfected by UV light.
Internal UV light is activated ever 3 hours for a 1 hour duration.
The water reservoir and the evaporator fill with water at the same rate.
Ice forms on the interior walls of the evaporator. The internal auger spins,
scraping the ice off, which falls into the next bin. As ice moves into the ice
bin it passes through the cutter auger, which automatically spins during
the process.
Sensors in the refrigerant line inhibit the evaporator from “over-cooling”
and freezing the evaporator.
Ice will remain chilled in the insulated ice bin, and keep itself cold.

1. The ice machine must be installed indoors
2. Check water pressure, if over 70 psi, add a pressure regulator.
3. Place the ice machine so that it has five inches of clearance at the sides and rear of the unit,
so it has proper ventilation.
4. Unit will need to be sanitized.
a. Remove top and front panels
b. Open ice bin and water reservoir
c. Remove the augers and divider from the ice bin
d. Using a 1:4 ratio of hydrogen peroxide to water in a bottle, spray all surfaces inside
the ice bin, augers, diver and water reservoir.
e. Let solution sit for 5 minutes and wipe clean.
f. Spray small amount back into the reservoir and ice bin
g. Repeat steps c through e on the reservoir and ice bin lids.
5. This ice machine only requires a drain on the RO system.
6. Filters should be located under the sink.
7. The RO system filters must be flushed. See the preventive maintenance section for this process.
8. Note: this unit will require a RO storage tank. It is recommended the tank is full of water before the
installation so you will not have to wait for the RO to fill the unit and RO tank.
9. Fill hot tank
a. Select hot
b. Hold the dispense button until water is dispensed
c. Turn on hot tank by pressing the switch in the back of the unit.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
A. Open filter enclosure. Press this tab on both sides of the enclosure to remove the lid.
B. Locate and remove the sediment and pre carbon filters. Connect to a water supply and flush for 3 minutes into a bucket.
C. Locate and remove the Bio-Sure Plus filter. Connect to a water supply and flush into a bucket for 3 minutes.
D. Locate and remove the TCR filter. Connect to a water supply and Flush the backwards into a bucket for 3 minutes.
E. Turn water off and return filters and tubing to their original locations.
F. Let the RO flush into a bucket for 30 minutes, then reconnect the product water tube to the ice machine.
Filter Change Regime:
Pre-Sediment Filter (HF-EX1(P)) 1 year
Pre-Carbon filter (HF-EX2(P)) 1 year
Reverse Osmosis (HF-EX3R(P)) 2- 3 years
Bio-Sure Plus RO (HF-EX4R(P)) 1 year
TCR (HF-EX5(P)) 2 years

NOTE: This cleaning process must be followed every 6 months to a year depending
on unit condition and water quality.
1. Unplug unit from power and turn water off.
2. Remove front and top panels
3. Mix 3.4oz of cleaning fluid with half a gallon of warm water and pour it slowly into the water
reservoir. This will also fill the evaporator with the cleaning solution. Be careful not to overflow
the water reservoir, this could allow the cleaning solution to enter the air filter.
4. Allow the solution to sit for 30 minutes to remove the scale.
5. Clean and rinse the augers and divider.
6. Connect drain hose to drain ports and drain unit. Disconnect hose once done draining.
7. Slowly pour half a gallon of clean warm water into the water reservoir, being careful not
to overflow the reservoir.
8. Connect drain hose to drain ports and drain unit. Disconnect hose once done draining.
9. Using a 1:4 ratio of hydrogen peroxide to water in a bottle, spray all surfaces inside the ice bin,
augers, ice bin lid, water reservoir lid, divider and water reservoir.
10. Let solution sit for 5 minutes and wipe clean.
11. Spray small amount back into the reservoir and ice bin
12. Reassemble ice bin and water reservoir.
13. Clean and sanitize the water nozzle, drip tray and ice chute.
14. Reassemble and test unit.

1. Drain the Unit
2. The ice bin and water reservoir drain ports are located behind the drip tray, while
the hot tank drain is behind the front panel
3. Power down the unit and Insert supplied tube into desired drain port to drain unit

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE RESOLUTION
No Power
Power Switch Is Switched To “Off”
Position Turn the power switch to “on” position
No Power From Outlet Check for voltage at outlet
Control Board Unresponsive If control board is receiving power, but not
responding, then replace board
No Water
Ball Valves Are Closed Open ball valves
Malfunctioning Ro Tank If ro tank is empty, check connections and
make sure it is working properly
Faulty Ro Operation Replace filters as needed
Leaks If water is present in leak detector, then
check the unit for leaks and repair
No Ice
Malfunctioning Ice Bin If ice bin is full, check dispenser operation
Malfunctioning Water Reservoir If reservoir is full, check probes and clean
if necessary.
Check Bin Full Sensors Clean or replace as needed
Dust Build Up In Condenser Clean the condenser
Improper Clearance Unit requires minimum 5” clearance
Room Temperature Room must be < 100° f
Incoming Water Temperature Must be < 90° f
Proximity To Hot Objects Or Appliances Unit requires minimum 5” clearance
Scale Build Up Descale as needed
Blinking Ice Button Auger Motor Malfunction Check motor and replace if needed
Blinking Water Button Empty Water Reservoir Check water supply/supply lines
Blinking Hot Light No Water In Hot Tank Unplug unit for 10 seconds and fill tank.
ERROR CODES
& BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING

18
NO ICE TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Is there any Push Button LED blinking?
A. ICE push Button is blinking when Auger Motor doesn’t operate properly.
B. WATER push Button is blinking when there is no water has been supplied.
2. If there is no blinking, reset the system, by unplugging the power plug for 10 sec.
3. If the unit does not start making ice, Disassemble the TOP COVER, TRAY & FRONT COVER.
A. Remove the ICE & WATER Dispenser Deco
B. Remove the TOP COVER by removing the 2 screws located at the back
C. After removing the tray, remove the 2 screws on the bottom then remove the FRONT PANEL.
4. Verify the water level inside the water reservoir.
A. If the water level is below the LOW WATER LEVEL SENSOR, then check the water supply
5. Assemble the FRONT PANEL and wait for 5 min.
A. If the FRONT PANEL is not attached to the system, Ice-making operation won’t work.
(COVER SWITCH needed to be pressed.)
B. 5 min after re-plugging the system, the ICE AUGER will restart by rotating
C. Additional 1 min would be necessary before Compressor and Fans operate properly.
