BrightShield™

USING YOUR ELECTRONIC CONTROL

This model includes BrightShield™ with Vyv™ Antimicrobial Light Technology.

BrightShield™

• Kills* and prevents the growth of viruses, bacteria, fungi, yeasts, mold, and mildew

• Provides continuous antimicrobial action to keep surfaces clean

• Is approved for continuous use around people, pets, & plants

• Reduces odors caused by bacteria, fungi, yeasts, mold, and mildew

• Creates a cleaner environment for food, beverages, & ice

* Testing on a non-enveloped virus (MS2 bacteriophage) showed a 97.12% reduction in controlled laboratory testing in 8 hours on hard surfaces. Testing on SARS-CoV-2 (enveloped virus) showed a 98.45% reduction in controlled laboratory testing in 4 hours on hard surfaces. Testing on MRSA E. coli showed 90%+ reduction in controlled laboratory testing in

24 hours on hard surfaces. Results may vary depending on the amount of light that is reaching the surfaces in the space

BrightShield™ is most effective when used continuously. Your unit is factory-set to use BrightShield™ lighting whenever the door is closed and standard bright white when the door is open. See Control Operations sections for details and other options.

INSTALLING THE WATER SUPPLY

Water Supply

!

CAUTION

Observe and follow all local building codes when installing this appliance.

This ice machine must be connected to a potable cold water supply line. delivering water pressure between a minimum of 20 psi and a maximum of 120 psi.

Use ¹ " copper tubing for your water supply which is available at any local hardware or plumbing supply store.

Route the ¹ " copper tubing to suit your installation being sure not to kink the tubing. Purchase enough copper tubing length to allow a coil to be formed behind the unit for a

"service loop" which will allow the appliance to be pulled out from the installation for servicing or cleaning. Connect the copper tubing to the "top side" of a cold water pipe to prevent the ice-maker from plugging with sediment. ease servicing the appliance. NOTE: A SELF-PIERCING

TYPE VALVE IS NOT RECOMMENDED as they are prone to clogging with sediment which will create pressure drop reducing the water supply to the unit.

Connect the copper tubing water supply to the water valve

IMPORTANT: Secure the water supply line to the back of the cabinet with the screw and strain relief clamp provided in the corner of the back panel.

Make certain all connections are watertight after installation. Form the tubing so that it will not vibrate against the cabinet body or kink when your appliance is moved in and out of position.

This ice machine is designed to make clear ice from the majority of water sources on a daily basis. If your results treated. A water specialist can recommend proper water treatment.

ICE MAKER OPERATION

The ice machine will keep producing ice until the ice machine’s bin is full and will restart automatically when ice needs to be replenished in the bin. The ice bin is machine to run for 24-48 hours to accumulate ice in the ice machine’s bin.

Ice Production

In normal mode the ice machine will produce up to 39 pounds (17.7 kg) of clear ice in a 24-hour period when installed in a 72°F ambient with a 55°F water supply. In

"ECO" mode (see page 16) the ice machine will produce up to 29 pounds (13.2 kg) of clear ice in the 24 hour period.
