2. ACTIVATING THE MACHINE

Implement the following operations before activating the
ice maker.
1. look at the pictures:
• remove the cover by loosening the relative fastening screws.
• release the gear motor, the blades and the float (where ap-
plicable) by removing the factory-set stops 1, 2 and 3, which
have been fixed to prevent damage during transport (fig.
j
). For the water-cooled models connect also the second
fitting to the water outlet, which conveys the water coming
from the condenser.
i
Note: Implement a minimum inclination of 3% to the pipes for
perfect water flow from the appliance, ensuring that these have
no narrowing sections and are not siphoned. It is advisable that
the pipes drain into an open siphon (fig.
2. Connect the machine to the power supply after having ver-
ified that the mains voltage corresponds to that on the serial
number plate on the rear panel of the appliance.
The maximum voltage variation tolerance allowed is ±
10% of the rated value.
• Provide a power supply circuit to the machine, with its own
bipolar main switch and a minimum of 3 mm contact open-
ing. the machine should also have its own fuse or automatic
protection and an earthed plug.
• all must be sized according to the amperage indicated on
the serial number plate (fig.

3. OPERATION

Simply press the ON/OFF button

• the Icematic ice cube makers can be easily adapted to the
furnishing of every room.
• the ice cubes are formed around the fingers of the evapora-
tor, inside a tray filled with water and continuously moved
by revolving blades.
• the level of the water in the tray is kept constant by a float
connected to a microswitch that controls the opening and
closing of a water inlet electrovalve of the water supply.
• when the ice cubes reach the required dimensions, they
come in contact with the revolving blades that cause the rel-
ative gear motor to swing, which stresses a micro switch and
simultaneously causes the following through a relay:
- the delivery of hot gas to the evaporator by an electrovalve
opening, which leads to the cubes gradually dropping off
the fingers of the evaporator.
- the tilting of the water tray connected by means of a lever
to a gear motor.
• the cubes drop and slide on a slanting grid inside the tray
and are conveyed into the container beneath.
• the remaining water in the tray is collected into the relative
pan on one side of the container and conveyed towards the
drain. the tray automatically returns to its horizontal position
after about a minute and fills with water till the pre-set level.
In the meantime, the hot gas valve closes and the ice form-
ing cycle proceeds smoothly; a complete cycle can vary from
about 15' to about 25' depending on the water and room
temperatures.
• the quantity of ice inside the container is controlled by the
electronic sensor fixed on one side of the container itself;
when the ice cubes reach the level of the bulb, the machine
stops completely. after removing enough ice from the con-
tainer for no cubes to be in contact with the bulb, the appli-
ance will resume its normal production.
i
Note: After removing the ice cubes, remove any remaining ice
on the control bulb for production to resume quicker.
• the RESET button has the following functions:
1. reset maintenance alert (pag. 17 par. 7.6*)
2. reset the start of the wash cycle (refer to instructions)

3.1 ALARM SIGNALS FOR AIR / WATER MODELS

• Overheating condenser: the machine restarts automatically
once the alarm has been resolved. the cause may be due to:
clogged air filter, faulty fan, room temperature too high, no
water (only in the water version).
• Water error: if there is no water, the machine restarts auto-
matically 60 minutes after the alarm is triggered.
i
Note: You can exit from the alarm status after having discon-
nected / connected the power supply (ON/OFF button).
• The machine stops when the container is full: the sensor
of the container is controlled by the control board and stops
the machine when the ice comes in contact with it. the ma-
chine stops at the end of the defrosting cycle.
