B. Service Diagnosis
WARNING
• The appliance should be diagnosed and repaired only by qualied service
personnel to reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or re.
• Risk of electric shock. Use extreme caution and exercise safe electrical practices.
• Moving parts (e.g., fan blade) can crush and cut. Keep hands clear.
• CHOKING HAZARD: Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews are
securely in place after the appliance is serviced. Make sure that none have fallen
into the dispenser unit/storage bin.
• Make sure all food zones in the icemaker and dispenser unit/storage bin are clean
after the unit is serviced.
1. Ice Production Check
To check production, prepare a bucket or pan to catch the ice and a set of scales to
weigh the ice. After the appliance has operated for 10 to 20 min., catch the ice production
for 10 min. Weigh the ice to establish the batch weight. Multiply the batch weight by
144 for the total production in 24 hours. When conrming production or diagnosing
low production, reference production information found in "VII.A. Specication and
Performance Data Sheets."
14
2. Diagnostic Procedure
This diagnostic procedure is a sequence check that allows you to diagnose the electrical
system and components. Before proceeding, check for correct installation, proper voltage
per appliance nameplate, and adequate water pressure (10 PSIG to 113 PSIG). Check
that both the 24VAC circuit fuse and the 115VAC GM fuse are good.
Note: • When checking high voltage (115VAC), always choose a neutral (W) wire to
establish a good neutral connection.
• When checking low voltage (24VAC), always choose a neutral (LBU) wire to
establish a good neutral connection.
• When checking control board DC voltage (5VDC), always place the red positive
test lead from the multimeter to CB K5 pin closest to CB K4 connector.
See "II.C. Control Board Check."
• When checking BC (infrared sensor) (20VDC), check that BC (infrared sensor)
green LED is on. This green LED conrms 20VDC power from CB K6to BC
(infrared sensor) and remains on constantly. If green LED is not on, check for
20VDC from CB K6 #1 (DBU) to CB K6 #3 (BR).
See "II.D. Bin Control Check."
• To speed up the diagnostic process, the 5-min. ice purge cycle may be bypassed
by pressing the "SERVICE" button on the control board after the gear motor
starts. WARNING! Risk of electric shock. Care should be taken not to touch live terminals.
• If the icemaker is in alarm, see "III.A.2. LED Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties."
• EH energizes when "GM" LED turns on.
• CB X1 relay energizes PDS. After PDS energizes, CPLS closes, then MC
energizes, energizing Comp and FMR.
• CB monitors the following switches with 5VDC during the icemaking process:
Control Switch (CS), Compressor Control Relay (CCR), Float Switch (FS). When
5VDC is present across any of these switches, the switch is open.
1) Remove the front panel, then move the power switch to the "OFF" position. Move the
control switch to the "DRAIN" position, then move the power switch back to the "ON"
position. Replace the front panel in its correct position.
2) Allow the water system to drain for 5 min.
3) Remove the front panel. Move the power switch to the "OFF" position, then unplug the
appliance from the electrical outlet.
4) Remove the control box cover and access CB.
5) Check the CB S1 dip switch settings, see "III.B.1. Default Dip Switch Settings" to assure
that they are in the correct positions. For proper operation of BC (infrared sensor),
conrm that S1 dip switch 7 is in the "ON" position.
15
6) Startup – CB "POWER OK" LED is on. Plug the icemaker back into the electrical
outlet, then move the power switch to the "ON" position. Move the control switch to the
"ICE" position. CB "POWER OK" LED and BC green LED turn on.
Diagnosis CB "POWER OK" LED: If CB"POWER OK" LED is off, check for proper
supply voltage (115VAC) input to CT. If 115VAC is not present, check the power switch
and breaker. Next, check for proper 24VAC output voltage from CT. Check CBK8
#1 (W/R) to #2 (LBU) for 24VAC. If 24VAC is not present and 1A 24VAC fuse is good,
replace CT. If 24VAC is present and CB "POWER OK" LED is off, replace CB.
Diagnosis BC (infrared sensor): Check that BC green LED is on. If CB "POWER
OK" LED is on and BC green LED is off, check CB K6 #1 (DBU) to CB K6 #3 (BR)
for 20VDC. If20VDC is not present, conrm S1 dip switch 7 is in the "ON" position.
IfS1dip switch 7 is in the "ON" position and 20VDC is not present, replace CB. IfBC
yellow LED is on or ashing, move ice away from lens. If no ice is present, clean the
lens with a warm, clean damp cloth. If BC yellow LED is still on or ashing after cleaning
the lens, replace BC.
7) Fill Cycle – "WTRIN" LED is on. Reservoir is empty and LFS and UFS are open.
FTstarts. WV energizes and ll cycle starts. LFS closes. Nothing happens at this time.
Reservoir continues to ll until UFS closes. When UFS closes, FT terminates, WV
de-energizes and CB "WTRIN" LED turns off. FZTand 30-sec. GM delay timer start.
IfUFS remains open longer than 90 sec. after LFS opens, FTexceeded and CB sounds
a 1-beep alarm. WVremains energized until UFS closes. Alarm resets automatically
when UFS closes. Diagnosis: If reservoir is empty and "WTRIN" LED is off, conrm
LFS status.
See "II.F.1. Float Switch Check." If LFS is open and "WTRIN" LED is off, replace
CB. If"WTRIN" LED is on, check that the reservoir lls. If not, check water supply
line shut-off valve, water lters, and WVscreen. If "WTRIN" LED is on and WV is off,
check CB K2 #8(O) to a neutral (LBU) for 24VAC. If 24VAC is not present, check CB
K2#9(W/R) to a neutral (LBU) for 24VAC. If 24VAC is present on CB K2 #9(W/R)and
not on CB K2 #8 (O), replace CB. If 24VAC is present on CB K2 #8(O), check
continuity through WV solenoid. If open, replace WV. If WV is energized and rell
exceeds FT with no water in the reservoir, check for DV leaking. Ifreservoir is full and
overowing check for open UFS. See "II.F.1. Float Switch Check." If UFS is closed,
check that WV de-energizes. If not, check CB K2 #8 (O) to a neutral (LBU) for 24VAC.
If 24VAC is present, replace CB. IfWV de-energizes and water continues to ll the
reservoir, replace WV.
16
8) Ice Purge Cycle – "GM" LED is on. 30-sec. GM delay timer terminates, GM, EH,
and CCR energize. Once CCR energizes, 5VDC circuit closes through CCR terminal
#3(W/O) and terminal #5 (W/O) and CB K9 #5 (W/O) and K9 #6 (W/O). After 5VDC
circuit closes, 5-min. ice purge timer starts. Tobypass the 5-min. Ice Purge Cycle, press
the "SERVICE" button on CB after the "GM" LED turns on. WARNING! Risk of electric
shock. Care should be taken not to touch live terminals.
Diagnosis: If "GM" LED is off, check that UFS closes and WV de-energizes. If UFS
is closed, 30 sec. has passed, and "GM" LED remains off, replace CB. If "GM" LED is
on and GM is off, check CB K1 #3 (BK) to a neutral (W) for 115VAC. If 115VAC is not
present, check 115VAC power supply. If 115VAC is present, check CB K1 #2(P) to a
neutral (W). If 115VAC is present on CB K1 #3 (BK) and not on CB K1 #2 (P), replace
CB. If 115VAC is present on CB K1 #2 (P), check GM fuse, GM internal protector,
GM windings and capacitor, and GM coupling between auger and GM. When GM
energizes, CCR energizes starting 5-min. ice purge timer.
9) Freeze Cycle – "COMP" and "GM" LEDs are on. Note: CB X1 relay energizes the
PDS (pump-down solenoid) not the MC (magnetic contactor). The 5-min. ice purge
timer terminates. GM, EH, and CCR continue. PDS energizes. Once the refrigeration
circuit low-side pressure reaches 29 PSIG, CLPS closes, energizingMC, MC then
energizes Comp and FMR. CCH de-energizes. Iceproduction starts 4 to 6 min. after
Comp energizes depending on ambient and water conditions. As ice is produced, the
water level in the reservoir drops. UFS opens. Nothing happens at this time. When LFS
opens, WV energizes and rell cycle begins, FZT terminates, and FTstarts.
FZT: 30-Min. Freeze Safety Timer – FZT starts when UFS closes and terminates
when LFS opens. If LFS does not open within 30 min. of UFS closing, CB shuts down
the icemaker and sounds a 5-beep alarm. See "III.A.2.LED Lights and Audible Alarm
Safeties." To reset, turn the power supply off and on again. See "II.G. Diagnostic Tables"
for troubleshooting details.
IcemakerDiagnosis (CCR): 5-min. ice purge timer terminates, CB "COMP" LED is
on and PDS energizes. If not, check for 5VDC between CB K5 connector pin closest
to CB K4 connector and CB K9connector #5(W/O). If 5VDC is not present, replace
CB. If 5VDC is present, check for 5VDC between CB K5 connector pin closest to CB
K4 connector and CB K9connector #6(W/O). If 5VDC is present and CB "Comp"
LED is off (PDS not energized), replace CB. If 5VDC is not present, check for 115VAC
between CCR terminal #7(O) to CCR terminal #8(W) for 115VAC. If115VAC is not
present (GM not energized), see step 8 above. If 115VAC is present and CCR contacts
are open (5VDCpresent between terminals #3(W/O) and #5(W/O)), check CCR
solenoid voltage and solenoid continuity. Replace CCR if necessary.
IcemakerDiagnosis (PDS): If"COMP" LED is on and PDS is not energized, check
CB X1 relay black (BK) wire to a neutral (W) and CB X1 relay violet (V) wire to a neutral
(W) for 115VAC. If115VAC is present on CB X1black (BK) wire and not on CBX1
violet(V) wire, replace CB. If115VAC is present on CBX1 violet(V) wire and PDS is
not energized, check for 115VAC at PDS (V) to a neutral (W) for 115VAC. If 115VAC is
present and PDS is not energized, check PDS solenoid for continuity. If open or if PDS
is sticking closed, replace PDS.
17
Condensing UnitDiagnosis: Conrm that CLPS closes. Once CLPS closes, MC
energizes, energizing Comp and FMR. If not, check condensing unit 208-230VAC
power supply, breakers, disconnects. Next, conrm 115VAC from CLPS BK wire to
neutral (W). If 115VAC is not present, check wiring connections and power supply.
CLPS: When PDS is energized, CLPS closes when refrigeration circuit low-side
pressure reaches 29 PSIG. If CLPS is open, check that refrigeration circuit low-side
pressure has reached 29 PSIG. If refrigeration circuit low-side pressure is too low,
conrm proper TXV operation, check for refrigerant restrictions (drier, PDS), and correct
refrigerant charge. Recover, evacuate, and recharge if necessary. If refrigeration circuit
low-side pressure reaches 29 PSIG and CLPS does not close, replace CLPS.
SLPS: If SLPS is open, manually reset SLPS. If manually resetting SLPS does not
close contacts, replace SLPS. After resetting, conrm proper TXV operation, check for
refrigerant restriction (drier, PDS), and correct refrigerant charge. Recover, evacuate,
and recharge if necessary.
HPS: If HPS is open, HPS automatically resets when refrigeration circuit high-side
pressure is within an acceptable range. If HPS does not reset (open), allow pressures
to equalize and HPS to reset. If refrigeration circuit high-side pressure does not drop,
recover, evacuate, and recharge if necessary. Before restarting the appliance, check
for dirty or clogged condenser. Once the appliance is restarted, check for proper FMR
operation and fan blade for binding. Check receiver, service valves, PDS, and drier
for refrigeration circuit restriction. Also check for proper HM operation. If high-side
refrigerant pressures have returned to an acceptable range and HPS does not close,
replace HPS.
MC: If MC energizes and Comp does not energize, check for 115VAC at MC C2 (O) to
neutral (W). If 115VAC is not present, check CLPS, SLPS, and HPS contacts. If 115VAC
is present, check MC coil continuity. If open, replace MC. If closed, check MC L1 and
MCL2to a neutral (W) for 115VAC. If 115VAC is not present on either L1or L2, check
incoming power supply. If 115VAC is present on both L1 and L2 and Comp does not
start, check MC T1 (BK) to MC T2 (R) for 208-230VAC. If 208-230VAC is not present,
replace MC. If 208-230VAC is present, check Comp start relay, start capacitor, run
capacitor, and Comp motor windings. If FMR does not energize, check MC T3 (DBU) to
a neutral (W) for 115VAC. If 115VAC is present and FMR does not energize, check fan
motor capacitors and motor windings. If 115VAC is not present, replace MC.
18
10) Rell Cycle – "GM", "COMP", and "WTRIN" LEDs are on.
LFS opens. WVenergizes and FT starts. GM, CCR, EH, PDS, MC, Comp, and FMR
continue. LFS closes. Nothing happens at this time. Reservoir continues to ll until UFS
closes. When UFS closes, WV de-energizes, FT terminates, and FZT starts. IfUFS
remains open longer than 90 sec. after LFS opens, FT exceeded and CB sounds a
1-beep alarm. WVremains energized until UFS closes. Alarm resets automatically when
UFS closes.
Diagnosis – Conrm that the water level has dropped and the UFS and LFS are open.
See "II.F.1. Float Switch Check." Check that "WTRIN" LED is on. IfLFS is open and
"WTRIN" LED is off, replace CB. If "WTRIN" LED is on, check that the reservoir lls.
Ifnot, check water supply line shut-off valve, water lters, and WVscreen. If"WTRIN"
LED is on and WV is off, check CB K2 #8(O) to a neutral (LBU) for 24VAC. If 24VAC is
not present, check CB K2 #9(W/R) to a neutral (LBU) for 24VAC. If 24VAC is present
on CB K2 #9 (W/R)and not on CB K2#8 (O), replace CB. If 24VAC is present on
CB K2#8(O),check continuity through WV solenoid. If open, replace WV. If WV is
energized and rell exceeds FT with no water in the reservoir, check for DV leaking. If
reservoir is full and overowing check for open UFS. See "II.F. Float Switch Check and
Cleaning." If UFS is closed, check that WVdeenergizes. If not, check CB K2 #8 (O)
to a neutral (LBU) for 24VAC. If 24VAC is present, replace CB. If WV de-energizes and
water continues to ll the reservoir, replace WV.
FT:90-Sec. Low Water Safety Timer – When LFS opens, 90-sec. low water safety
timer starts. If UFS does not close within 90 sec. after LFS opens (FTexceeded),
CBsounds a 1-beep alarm and a 90-sec. shutdown cycle starts.
See "III.A.2.LED Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties." PDS de-energizes. Refrigeration
circuit low-side pressure drops to 9PSIG, opening CLPS. CLPS opens, de-energizing
MC, which de-energizes Comp and FMR. GM, CCR, and EH continue. 90-sec. purge

11) Drain Cycle
a) 1-in-1 Drain Cycle: DV energizes once every hour when the 1-in-1 drain cycle is
activated (S1 dip switch 4 in the "OFF" position (factory default position)).
GM and PDS continue. DV energizes for 2 sec. every hour. This setting is recommended
for optimum icemaker performance. The 1-in-1 drain cycle allows any sediment to drain
from the evaporator without interrupting the icemaking process.
b) 1-in-12 Drain Cycle (optional): DV energizes once every 12 hours when the 1-in-12
drain cycle is activated (S1 dip switch 4 in the on position (optional)). 12-hour drain
cycle timer terminates, PDS de-energizes, GM continues. The 5-min. ice purge timer
starts. When the 5-min. ice purge timer terminates, GM de-energizes. 10-min. DT starts,
DV energizes. After 10-min. DT terminates, DV de-energizes and 12-hour drain cycle
timer starts. Icemaking cycle starts.
c) Manual Drain: Manual drain is used when servicing evaporator components and
cleaning and sanitizing the unit. When the unit is making ice and the control switch is
moved to the "DRAIN" position, there is a 3-sec. delay, then PDS de-energizes and
the 5-min. ice purge timer starts. When the 5-min. ice purge timer terminates, GM
de-energizes. DV energizes to drain the evaporator and reservoir. To avoid the 5-min.
shutdown delay, turn off the power supply, then move the control switch to the "DRAIN"
position. Turn on the power supply. DV energizes to drain the evaporator and reservoir.
DV de-energizes when the control switch is moved to the "ICE" position
12) Shutdown – BC (infrared sensor): When ice activates BC, yellow LED starts ashing
when ice is at the outer limit of its range and turns steady as ice nears. After BC
yellow LED turns on (ashing or steady), BC shutdown delay timer (S1 dip switch
1, 2, 3) starts. For a typical dispenser unit application, a 100-sec. shutdown delay
is recommended. When used with a standard Hoshizaki storage bin, any shutdown
delay setting is acceptable. See "III.B.2. BC (Infrared Sensor) Shutdown Delay (S1 dip
switch 1, 2, 3)." Once BC shutdown delay timer terminates, PDS de-energizes and the
5-min. ice purge timer starts. Unit is in pump-down mode. When the refrigerant low-side
pressure drops to 9PSIG, CLPS opens, MC de-energizes, de-energizing Comp and
FMR. CCH energizes. When the 5-min. ice purge timer terminates, GM, EH, CCR
de-energize. Icemaker Diagnosis: BC yellow LED not ashing or on with ice near.
See "II.D. Bin Control Check." PDS remains energized after BC shutdown delay timer
terminates. Check for 115VAC from CB X1 relay V wire to neutral (W). If 115VAC is
present, replace CB. If 115VAC is not present, check PDS for mechanical failure.
Condensing Unit Diagnosis: When PDS de-energizes and closes, pump-down starts.
Conrm refrigerant low-pressure drops to 9PSIG and CLPS opens. If refrigerant
low-pressure reaches 9 PSIG and CLPS does not open, replace CLPS. If Comp and
FMR remain energized after CLPS opens, replace MC.

Before replacing a control board that does not show a visible defect and that you suspect
is bad, always conduct the following check procedure. This procedure will help you verify
your diagnosis.
1) Check CB S1 dip switch settings to assure that they are in the factory default position.
For factory default settings, see "III.B.1. Default Dip Switch Settings."
Note: S1 dip switch 7determines bin control application:
BC (infrared sensor): S1 dip switch 7in the "ON" position.
BC (mech. stand-alone or backup(only)) (Standard Ice Storage Bin): S1 dip switch
7 in the "OFF" position.
2) Move the power switch to the "ON" position and move the control switch to the "ICE"
position. The CB "POWER OK" LED turns on. Diagnosis "POWER OK" LED: Check
that the CB "POWER OK" LED is on. Ifnot, check for proper supply voltage (115VAC)
input to the control transformer (power switch, breaker, and fuse). Next, check for proper
low-voltage (24VAC) output from the control transformer and the 1A fuse is good. Check
for 24VAC at CB K8 #1 (W/R) to CB K8 #2(LBU). If 24VAC is present and CB "POWER
OK" LED is off, replace CB.
3) BC (infrared sensor) Power Supply (K6 connector): CB supplies 20VDC to BC
and BC green LED is on. Diagnosis: Check that BC green LED is on. If not, check
for 20VDC between CB K6 #1 (DBU) and CB K6 #3(BR). See Fig. 1. If 20VDC is not
present, replace CB. If 20VDC is present, conrm that the yellow LED is not ashing or
steady. If BC yellow LED is on or ashing, move ice away from lens. If no ice is present,
clean the lens with a warm, clean damp cloth. If cleaning the lens does not work,
replace BC (infrared sensor).

5) Fill "WTRIN" LED is on: 24VAC is present at CB K2 #9 (W/R) at all times. If not,
conrm 24VAC from CB K2 #9(W/R) to a neutral (LBU). When LFS open at startup
or opens during normal operation, "WTRIN" LED turns on, ll timer (FT) starts, freeze
timer (FZT) terminates (only during normal operation), and WV energizes. If LFS is
open and "WTRIN" LED is off, conrm LFS status. See "II.F. Float Switch Check and
Cleaning." If LFS is open and "WTRIN" LED is off, replace CB. If "WTRIN" LED is on
and WV is not energized, check for 24VAC at CB K2 #8(O) to a neutral (LBU). If24VAC
is not present on CB K2 #8(O), replace CB. "WTRIN" LED turns off once UFS closes.
If not, conrm UFS status. See "II.F. Float Switch Check and Cleaning." IfUFS is closed
and "WTRIN" LED is on, replace CB. If "WTRIN" LED is off and WV is open, check for
24VAC at CB K2 #8 (O). If 24VAC is present at CB K2 #8 (O), replace CB. If 24VAC is
not present, check WV diaphragm.
6) Ice Purge Cycle "GM" LED is on: When UFS closes, GM delay timer starts (5 or
30sec. depending on CB S1 dip switch #7). OnceGM delay timer terminates, "GM"
LED turns on, GM and EH energize and 5-min. ice purge timer starts. If GM does not
energize 30 sec. after UFS closes, conrm UFS status. See "II.F. Float Switch Check
and Cleaning." If UFS is closed and GM LED does not turn, replace CB. If "GM" LED
is on and GM and EH are off, check for 115VAC from CBK1#3 (BK)to a neutral
(W). Ifnot, check 115VAC power supply connections from power switch. If 115VAC is
present, check for 115VAC from CB K1 #2 (P)to a neutral (W). If 115VAC is present on
CB K1 #3 (BK)and not on CB K1 #2 (P), replace CB.

E. Power Switch and Control Switch
The power switch and control switch are used to control the operation of this appliance.
They are located on the control box.
1. Power Switch
The power switch has 2 positions, "OFF" and "ON." When the power switch is in the
"OFF" position, no power is supplied to the components. When in the "ON" position,
power is supplied to the control transformer and control board. The control board then
supplies 5VDC to the control switch for unit operation.
2. Control Switch
The control switch has 2 positions, "ICE" and "DRAIN."
When the control switch is in the "ICE" position (open), icemaking begins.
When the control switch is in the "DRAIN" position (closed), the drain valve energizes.
a) ICE
When the control switch is in the "ICE" position, the control board reads an open
circuit through the control switch contacts and starts the icemaking process.
b) DRAIN
When the control switch is in the "DRAIN" position, the control board reads a closed
circuit through the control switch and the drain valve energizes.
28
F. Float Switch Check and Cleaning
1. Float Switch Check
1) Remove the front panel, then move the power switch to the "OFF" position.
2) Move the control switch to the "DRAIN" position.
3) Move the power switch to the "ON" position.
4) Allow the water to drain from the evaporator, then move the power switch to the "OFF"
position and the control switch to the "ICE" position.
5) Unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet.
6) Remove the control box cover.
7) Disconnect FS connector from CB K8 connector and check FS continuity. Both the UFS
and LFS should be open. Check continuity between CB K8 #5 (BK) (common) and CB
K8 #6(R) (UFS). Next, check continuity between CB K8 #5 (BK) (common) and CB K8
#7 (BU) (LFS). If both are open, continue to step 8. If either are closed, follow the steps
in "II.F.2. Float Switch Cleaning." After cleaning FS, check UFS and LFS again. Replace
if necessary.
8) Reconnect FS connector to CB K8 connector.
9) Plug the appliance into the electrical outlet, then move the power switch to the "ON"
position and let the water reservoir ll.
10) Once the reservoir is full and GM starts, move the power switch to the "OFF" position.
11) Unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet.
12) Disconnect FS connector from CB K8 connector and check FS continuity. Both the UFS
and LFS should be closed. Check continuity between CB K8 #5 (BK) (common) and
CB K8 #6 (R) (UFS). Next, check continuity between CB K8 #5 (BK) (common) and CB
K8#7 (BU) (LFS). If either are open, follow the steps in "II.F.2. Float Switch Cleaning."

15) Replace the front panel in its correct position.
2. Float Switch Cleaning
Depending on local water conditions, scale may build up on FS. Scale on FS can cause
inconsistent operation of UFS and LFS. In this case, both UFS and LFS should be
cleaned and checked.
1) Remove the front panel, then move the power switch to the "OFF" position.
2) Unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet.
3) Remove FS assembly from the reservoir cover. See Fig. 5.
4) Wipe down FS assembly with a mixture of 1 part Hoshizaki "Scale Away" and 25 parts
warm water. Rinse the assembly thoroughly with clean water.
5) While not necessary, the oats can be removed from the shaft during cleaning. If you
remove them, note that the blue oat is on top (UFS) and the white oat is on bottom
(LFS). The oats must be installed with the magnets inside them towards the top of the
switch. See Fig.4. Installing the oats upside down will affect the timing of FS operation.
6) Rinse the oat switch assembly thoroughly with clean water and replace in its correct
position.
7) Plug the appliance into the electrical outlet, then move the power switch to the "ON"
position to start the automatic icemaking process.
8) Replace the front panel in its correct position.

Continuous Dispensing Timer
(DCM models only, do not adjust on modular icemakers)
Infrared sensor shutdown delay is the delay between the infrared sensor detecting ice
(infrared sensor yellow LED ashing or steady) and the start of the shutdown sequence.
For dispenser unit applications, the ice level at shutoff may need to be adjusted
depending on the dispenser agitation or dispense method. Increasing the shutdown
delay setting allows for a higher level of ice in the bin before the icemaker shuts down.
For a typical dispenser unit application, a 100-sec. shutdown delay is recommended.
When used with a standard Hoshizaki storage bin, any shutdown delay setting is
acceptable.
WARNING
Increasing the shutdown delay allows a higher level of ice in the dispensing unit/
storage bin before shutdown. This could lead to icemaker movement or ice overow.
The appliance is factory set for optimum performance with the 1-in-1 drain cycle. This
setting allows for removal of sediment from the evaporator every hour without interrupting
the icemaking process. An optional 1-in-12 drain cycle is available.
DCM models only. The dispense mode switch on DCMs must be in the "CONTINUOUS"
position for this setting to apply. The factory setting allows ice to be dispensed
continuously as long as the dispense solenoid is activated.

WARNING
• This appliance should be diagnosed and repaired only by qualied service
personnel to reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or re.
• Before Servicing: FS: Move the icemaker's power switch to the "OFF" position.
Unplug the icemaker from the electrical outlet. SRC: Turn off the power supply
to the remote condensing unit. Place the disconnect (if applicable) in the off
position. Lockout/Tagout to prevent the power supply from being turned back on
inadvertently.
• Do not make any alterations to the icemaker or condensing unit. Alterations could
result in electric shock, injury, re, or damage to the appliance.
• CHOKING HAZARD: Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews are
securely in place after the appliance is serviced. Make sure that none have fallen
into the dispenser unit/ice storage bin.
• Make sure all food zones in the icemaker and dispenser unit/ice storage bin are
clean after service.
A. Refrigeration Circuit Service Information
WARNING
• Repairs requiring the refrigeration circuit to be opened must be performed by
properly trained and EPA-certied service personnel.
• Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of
refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the
pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). Do not use R-404A as a mixture with
pressurized air for leak testing.
NOTICE
• Always recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container. Do not
discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.
• Do not leave the system open for longer than 15 min. when replacing or servicing
parts. The Polyol Ester (POE) oils used in R-404A applications can absorb
moisture quickly. Therefore it is important to prevent moisture from entering the
system when replacing or servicing parts.
• Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened.
Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.
Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the refrigerant
ow.
• When brazing, protect the drier by using a wet cloth to prevent the drier from
overheating. Do not allow the drier to exceed 250°F (121°C).
40
1. Refrigerant Recovery
Using proper refrigerant practices, recover the refrigerant. Recover via the service valves.
Store the refrigerant in an approved container. Do not discharge the refrigerant into the
atmosphere.
2. Brazing
WARNING
• R-404A itself is not ammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to
176°F (80°C).
• R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to high
temperatures (open ames), R-404A can be decomposed to form hydrouoric
acid and carbonyl uoride both of which are hazardous.
• Do not use silver alloy or copper alloy containing arsenic.
1) Braze all ttings while purging with nitrogen gas owing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.
NOTICE
• Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened.
• Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.
Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the refrigerant
ow.
• When brazing, protect the drier by using a wet cloth to prevent the drier from
overheating. Do not allow the drier to exceed 250°F (121°C).
2) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of
refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the
pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). Do not use R-404A as a mixture with
pressurized air for leak testing.
3. Evacuation and Recharge (R-404A)
1) Attach a vacuum pump to the system. Be sure to connect the charging hoses to both
high and low-side refrigerant service valves.
IMPORTANT
The vacuum level and vacuum pump may be the same as those for current
refrigerants. However, the rubber hose and gauge manifold to be used for
evacuation and refrigerant charge should be exclusively for POE oils.
2) Turn on the vacuum pump, then open the gauge manifold valves, then open the high
and low-side service valves. Never allow the oil in the vacuum pump to ow backwards.
3) Allow the vacuum pump to pull down to a 29.9" Hg vacuum. Evacuating period depends
on pump capacity.
4) Close the low-side valve and high-side valve on the gauge manifold.
41
5) Disconnect the gauge manifold hose from the vacuum pump and attach it to a
refrigerant service cylinder. Remember to loosen the connection and purge the air from
the hose. See the rating label inside the icemaker for the required refrigerant charge.
Hoshizaki recommends only virgin refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which meets
AHRI Standard 700 (latest edition) be used.
6) A liquid charge is required when charging an R-404A system (to prevent fractionation).
Place the service cylinder on the scales; if the service cylinder is not equipped with
a dip tube, invert the service cylinder, then place it on the scales. Open the high-side
valve on the gauge manifold.
7) Allow the system to charge with liquid until the proper charge weight is met.
8) If necessary, add any remaining charge to the system through the low-side.
NOTICE!To prevent compressor damage, use a throttling valve or liquid
dispensing device to add the remaining liquid charge through the low-side
service valve with the icemaker running.
9) Close the high and low-side gauge manifold valves, then disconnect the gauge manifold
hoses.
10) Cap the service valves to prevent a possible leak.
42
B. Component Service Information
NOTICE
• When replacing a component listed below, see the notes to help ensure proper
operation.
• When replacing evaporator assembly and water circuit components, make sure
there are no water leaks after the repair is complete.
• Seal bolts must be replaced once removed because seal material is one-time use
only. If new seal bolts do not have pre-applied threadlocker, apply Loctite243 or
equivalent threadlocker to seal bolt threads. Tighten to the torque values listed
below.
Torque for F-1001 and Smaller: 11.1 ft-lb/15 N·m
