Air flow The machine takes in room temperature air at the lower right front and forces warm air out the lower left front. Restricting the airflow will adversely affect the ability of the ice machine to make ice. Scotsman Ice Systems are designed and manufactured with the highest regard for safety and performance. They meet or exceed the standards o[...]

Water Quality All water, including potable water supplied by municipalities, contains some impurities or minerals. Water absorbs impurities from the air as rain and/or as it flows through the ground. Some of the impurities are solid particles, these are known as suspended solids, and a fine particle filter will remove them. Other impurities are che[...]

Door Covering Door Panel The ice machine is supplied without a conventional door covering so it can be decorated to the user ’s preference. Scotsman offers several coverings including white, black and stainless steel. In addition, a custom built panel can be placed onto the door. Door Panel Attachment To attach a Scotsman supplied panel: Note: If[...]

Remove innermost screw holding each hinge to cabinet, loosen the other. 2. Slide hinges to the side and remove door from cabinet. Remove screws loosened in step 1 from both [...]

Installation: Water & Drain The recommended water supply tubing is ¼ inch OD copper. Stainless steel flex or reinforced PVC tube may also be used. Install an easily accessible shut-off valve between the supply and the unit. This shut-off valve should not be installed behind the unit. Note: Do not use self-piercing type valves. 1. Remove the fr[...]

Gravity Drain Caution: Restrictions in the drain system to the machine will cause water to back up into the ice storage bin and melt the ice. Gravity drain tubing must be vented, have no kinks and slope to the building drain. Air gaps are typically required by local code. 1. Place the ice machine in front of the installation opening. Adjust levelin[...]

Electrical The ice machine is supplied with a power cord. Do not remove the grounding pin from the cord ’s plug. Do not use extension cords. Follow all codes. Connect the machine to its own 115 volt, 15 amp circuit. 1. If the electrical outlet for the ice maker is behind the unit, plug in the unit. 2. Position the unit in the installation opening[...]

Cube Size Adjustment The cube size can be adjusted by changing the amount of freeze cycle time. This is done by a button press sequence. Note: There is only one correct cube size. See the illustrations. To adjust cube size: 1. Shut the machine off: If it 's off on bin full press and release the On/Off button once, switching the Ice Making ligh[...]

Harvest Time Adjustment The harvest time can be adjusted so that all the ice harvests during the cycle, plus a few seconds extra. This is done by a button press sequence. Note: Do not set harvest time shorter than the actual time it takes to release all the cubes. To adjust Harvest Time: 1. Shut the machine off by holding the On/Off button in until[...]

Control Settings Automatic water purge enable / disable The control is set at the factory to automatically select the proper amount of water purge. If desired, that can be disabled, and a typical purge amount used. To disable Automatic purge selection: 1. Press and hold the On/Off button until the unit shuts off. No lights should be on. 2. Press an[...]

Use No special instructions are needed for use. Just take as much ice as you need, the machine will replace it. A scoop is provided, and it can be stored in the machine using the loop of tubing on the right side as a holder. The machine can be shut off anytime by just pushing and releasing the On/Off button. The machine will shut off at the end of [...]

How to clean the condenser and winterize. Condenser cleaning The condenser is like the radiator on a car, it has fins and tubes that can become clogged with dirt and lint. To clean: 1. Remove the kickplate and front service panel. 2. Locate the condenser surface. 3. Vacuum the surface, removing all dust and lint. Caution: Do not dent the fins. 4. R[...]

How to remove scale from the ice making system. 1. Scoop out all of the ice, either discard it or save it in an ice chest or cooler. 2. Press and HOLD the On/off button in for 3 seconds until the Green light goes out. 3. Press and HOLD the both the Clean-Reset and On/Off buttons for 5 seconds. The Time to Clean light will blink on and off. 4. Pour [...]

Water System The controller uses a Water Sensor to check for the presence of water in the reservoir and to measure the conductivity of the water. The water sensor consists of two stainless steel probes located in a holder next to the water pump. The probes sense the conductivity of the water. The higher the mineral content of the water, the better [...]
