Thermostat calibrations

If ice maker is installed more than 2,000 feet
(600 m) above sea level, the Bin and Ice
Thickness Thermostats must be adjusted

to a warmer setting. Disconnect electricity,

remove thermostat, and follow the directions
for turning the altitude adjustment screw as
shown in the label on each thermostat.

Shipboard operation

When this ice maker is installed aboard a
ship, it may be necessary to purchase and

install a water deflector. The deflector hangs the storage bin area. Order the necessary
between the lower edge of the evaporator

and the cutter grid. It keeps the water
flowing over the evaporator from spilling into

parts from your local ice maker dealer.
