Control Switches
The On and Off switch buttons are front accessible.
To switch the machine OFF, push and release the Off
button. The machine will shut off at the end of the next
cycle. To shut the machine off immediately, push and
hold the Off button for 3 seconds.
To switch the machine ON, push and release the
On button. The machine will go through a start up
process and then resume ice making.
Control Options
There are two optional, field installed controls that can
be added to this machine.
• Vari-Smart™ adjustable ice level control
• Smart-Board™ advanced control board and data
logger
Adjustable ice level control, kit # KVS
When this option is present there is an adjustment
post and an additional indicator light to the right
of the controller switches. The ultrasonic ice level
control allows the user to control the point that the
ice machine will stop making ice before the bin or
dispenser is full. Reasons for this include:
• Seasonal changes in ice used
• Planning to sanitize the bin
• Faster turnover for fresher ice
• Certain dispenser applications where maximum
ice level is not desired
Note: Ice will build up in the bin or dispenser at an
angle, the distance set will be from the sensor to the
top of the ice. The sensor position is shown in the
cabinet layout diagrams.
The actual distance between the highest point of the
ice may be closer or further away than the distance
set, depending upon the angle of the ice.
Use of control
There are several positions the ice level can be set to,
including Off or Max (knob and label indicators lined
up), where it fills the bin until the standard bin control
shuts the machine off. See the kit’s instructions for
complete details.
Rotate the adjustment post to the desired ice level.
The machine will fill up to that level and when it shuts
off the Bin Full indicator light will be On.
Ice
The cuber drops ice in large sections. That ice will
break up into random parts as it falls into the bin, but
some large sections may remain on top of the ice
in the bin. In a dispenser, this ice will break up into
mostly individual cubes as the dispense mechanism
moves the ice. The ice in the bin will normally slope
down from the right to the left.
Heat
When making ice air cooled models will discharge hot
air out the back of the cabinet.
Noise
The ice machine will make noise when it is in ice
making mode. The compressor, fan motor(s) if air
cooled and water pump all produce some sound. It
is also normal to hear some cracking just before the
harvest cycle begins. In addition, during the harvest
cycle the harvest mechanism may click twice as it
pushes the ice out and returns to its normal position.
The ice harvests as a unit or slab, which makes some
noise when it impacts the bin or dispenser. These
noises are all normal for this machine.
