GEMU090
Installation and Use
Introduction
This manual includes information for the installation, operation and maintenance of the GEMU090 residential ice machine.
The GEMU090 was developed to offer fans of Ice-O-Matic’s Pearl Ice form the ability to have that ice in their homes. Previously pearl Ice was only available in commercial establishments, where it developed a strong following because of the chewable nature of the ice. This machine makes authentic pearl ice, using the same process as the larger commercial machines.

Outdoor Use Notice:
Keep from freezing. Severe damage will occur to the unit if left in or operated in temperatures beyond the limits listed in this manual. That damage is NOT covered by warranty.
Keep dry. Do not locate in low lying areas where puddles will accumulate.
Provide Shade: Heat gain from the sun will reduce the unit's ability to make and store ice, and ultraviolet radiation from the sun can potentially damage the unit's plastic components.
Water Supply: Avoid a long run of hose or tubing exposed to the sun. Plastic water supply tubing should be rated for potable water and include UV protection. Copper tubing is recommended.
Back Flow Prevention: The unit includes back flow prevention, no additional check valve is required.
Drainage: Do Not drain into swimming pool or onto grounds.

GEMU090
Installation and Use
Product Description:
This ice machine is designed to be used indoors, in a controlled environment or outdoors within certain limits.
The GEMU090 is made up of two major systems: the ice making system and the ice storage system. The ice making system is a continuous flow type ice machine, it makes ice when the ice level becomes low and stops when it is full.
The ice storage system is an insulated chest with a drain at the bottom for melting ice. It is not refrigerated, insuring that the bin contains fresh ice.
Installation Information
Dimensions:
The cabinet is fourteen and seven eighths inches wide by thirty three and three eighths to thirty four and three eighths inches high.
Utility and Operational Requirements
•The GEMU090 must be connected to a potable water supply.
•The water supply must have a conductivity of at least 10 microSiemens/cm.
•Minimum water pressure: 20 psi
•Maximum water pressure: 80 psi
•Minimum water temperature: 40 degrees F.
•Maximum water temperature: 90 degrees F.
It is designed to operate in wide range of air temperatures:
•Minimum air temperature: 50 degrees F.
•Maximum air temperature: 100 degrees F.
Although the machine will function within the listed ranges, it works best at water temperatures between 50 and 60 and air temperatures between 60 and 80.
Note: Ice making capacity goes down as the environmental temperatures go up, and will be severely reduced at temperatures over 90oF.
Operating a unit outside of the limits can cause problems that are not covered by the warranty and, if extreme, cause damage to the unit.
Water Quality
The water to the machine must be potable, or fit for human consumption. Beyond that, water supplies vary in the degree of mineral content. As this ice machine makes ice, all the water that flows into the machine is changed into ice. That includes any minerals that might be in the water. However, during ice making some minerals will stick to the ice making components. The higher the mineral content, the more mineral build up will occur. Water filters are a partial help, as they will remove the suspended solids, but water treatment is needed for the dissolved solids, which are part of the water and cannot be filtered out.
RO Water
This machine can be supplied with Reverse Osmosis water, but the water conductivity must be no less than 10 microSiemens/cm. A reverse osmosis system should include post treatment or blending to satisfy the R.O. water’s potential aggressiveness.
Deionized water is not recommended and could damage the machine.
Because water softeners exchange one mineral for another, softened water may not improve water conditions when used with ice machines
Electrical power
The unit must be on its own 115 volt, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit. It is equipped with a power cord and can be plugged into a nearby outlet. Extension cords are not allowed by most codes. Follow all applicable codes.
Warranty Information
Warranty information is supplied on the inside front cover of this manual. Refer to it for coverage. In general, the warranty covers defects in materials or workmanship and does not cover corrections of installation errors or maintenance.
