3. Water Supply and Drain Connections
Note: A plumbing permit and services of a licensed
plumber may be required in some areas.
• Only potable water should be used for this icemaker.
• Water supply pressure should be minimum 0.7 bar
and maximum 8 bar. If the pressure exceeds 8 bar,
use a pressure reducing valve. Do NOT throttle back
the supply tap.
• The icemaker drain is gravity flow, so ensure that the
drainpipe has an adequate pitch or fall.
• Water should drain into an open trap.
II. Operating Instructions
WARNING
1. This icemaker is designed to produce edible
ice. To keep the icemaker hygienic:
• Wash your hands before removing ice.
• Use the plastic scoop provided (accessory).
• The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not
store anything else in the bin.
• Clean the storage bin before use (see "III.
1. Cleaning").
• Keep the scoop clean. Clean it by using a
neutral cleaner and rinsing thoroughly.
• Close the door after removing ice to
prevent entrance of dirt, dust or insects
into the storage bin.
2. The use of any electrical equipment involves
the observance of some fundamental rules.
In particular:
• Instances of high humidity and moisture
increase the risk of electrical short circuits
and potential electrical shocks. If in doubt,
disconnect the icemaker.
• Do not use the icemaker when you have
bare feet.
• Do not pull the power cord in order to
disconnect the icemaker from the feed
network.
• This appliance is not suitable for
unsupervised use by young children or
aged or infirm persons.
3. All parts are factory-adjusted. Improper
adjustments may result in failure.
4. If the unit is turned off, wait for at least 3
minutes before restarting the icemaker to
prevent damage to the compressor.
5. Do not operate the unit in the "WASH"
position without water in the water tank. This
will cause damage to the water pump seal.
1. Operation
The installer will normally commission the icemaker
to start the automatic icemaking process. To ensure
continuous operation, make sure that:
• The water supply tap is on, and
• The power supply is on.
2. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage
1) Disconnect the power supply.
2) Close the water supply tap, and remove the Inlet
hose.
3) Remove all ice from the storage bin.
4) Ask for draining of the icemaker by professional
qualified personnel.
III. Maintenance
1. Cleaning
WARNING
1. Before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance operations, turn off the power
supply.
2. Ask a trained service person to clean and
sanitize the icemaker water system at least
twice a year and to check and clean the
condenser at least once a year.
3. This appliance must not be cleaned by use of
a water jet.
[1] Machine and Bin Exterior
Wipe the exterior at least once per week with a clean,
soft cloth. Use a damp cloth containing a neutral
cleaner to wipe off grease or dirt.
[2] Scoop
1) Either mix 3 litres of water with 11 ml of 5.25%
sodium hypochlorite solution in a suitable
container, or the recommended Hoshizaki sanitiser
as directed.
2) Soak the scoop in the solution for more than 3
minutes. Rinse thoroughly, and shake to remove
surplus liquid.
Note: Using a cloth to dry may re-contaminate.
[3] Storage Bin Interior Cleaning/Sanitisation
(Weekly)
1) Open the storage bin door, and remove all ice.
Note: Hoshizaki recommends various types of
storage bin for the icemaker which vary in
size and design. The following instructions
are therefore for general guidance only.

neutral non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse thoroughly
with a clean cloth and fresh water.
