PRODUCT DELIVERY LOCATION
The location selected for the FreshBlender Beverage System
must meet the following criteria.
• The air temperature must be at least 40°F (4°C), but
must not exceed 90°F (32°C), climate class 4.
• The location must not be near heat-generating
equipment or in direct sunlight and must be protected
from weather.
• Plain Inlet Water Temperature:
min/max = 40°F / 90°F (4°C / 32°C).
• Always use the water supply line supplied when
installing this appliance. Never reuse an old supply line.
• Verify floor of install location is level front to back, side
to side.
• Keep equipment area clear of combustible material.
Warning
n
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) displaces oxygen. Exposure to a
high concentration of CO2 gas causes tremors, which
are followed rapidly by loss of consciousness and
suffocation. If a CO2 gas leak is suspected, particularly
in a small area, immediately ventilate the area before
repairing the leak. CO2 lines and pumps must not be
installed in an enclosed space. An enclosed space can
be a cooler or small room or closet. This may include
convenience stores with glass door self serve coolers. If
you suspect CO2 may build up in an area, venting of the
B-I-B pumps and / or CO2 monitors must be utilized.

national and local electrical codes.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Warning

NORMAL OPERATION
Drink Selection screen appears after power-up of the
unit. Operator presses one of the drink type buttons on
the Drink Selection screen, and the Flavor Options screen
appears. Once a flavor is selected a confirmation screen will
appear. When the user confirms the selection the on screen
instructions for cup location and drink size will then display.
See “Procedure to Make a Drink” on page 26.
With correct cup in place, the drink preparation sequence
commences when “Start Drink Size” is initiated through
the touch screen. The machine dispenses product and ice
into the cup in the dispense area. The cup is then placed
into isolated the blend chamber by the automatic shuttle
The machine blends the drink for the correct time at the
proper blender speed. If add-ins are required for the drink
after blending, the user will be prompted. The blender
completes the blend sequence and the shuttle system
moves the completed drink back into the dispense area
where the customer can now retrieve it.
After the drink is removed the automatic rinse of the
blender and dispense area initiates. The Drink Selection
screen re-appears.

ICE MAKING
Main Power Switch - Front Top Right of the Unit
Power
Switch
The ice machine will not start until:
1. The power ON/OFF switch is in the “ON” position.
2. Ice does not contact the bin level sensor/switch.
3. The water reservoir is full of water.
4. After 15 minute delay when power cycled.
15 Minute time delay
The 15 minute delay must be expired before the gear motor
or compressor will energize.
The delay period starts to time out upon application of
power or movement of the toggle switch from OFF to ICE.
The delay period starts when:
• The ice machine enters Automatic Shutoff
• Power is disconnected and reconnected
• The toggle switch is moved from OFF to ICE
This time delay period can not be overridden and will reset
to 15 minutes if any of the above conditions occur.
INITIAL STARTUP
Applying power and/or moving the toggle switch from OFF
to ICE will start a 15 minute delay period. This delay period
can not be overridden. With the water sensing switch closed
(reservoir full of water) the gear motor will energize at the end
of the 15 minute time delay. The compressor and condenser
fan motor energize 5 seconds after the gear motor.
FREEZE CYCLE
The float valve automatically maintains the water level in
the reservoir. The ice damper will open and close to verify
ice production. The ice machine will continue to make ice
until the ice damper is held open (up) as ice fills the bin.
AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF
When the ice damper is held open by ice, the gear motor,
compressor and condenser fan de-energize. The fifteen
minute delay period starts to time out. The ice machine will
remain off until the 15 minute delay period expires and the
ice damper closes.
RESTART AFTER AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF
1. Less than 4 hours have passed since automatic shut-off.
With the water sensing switch closed (reservoir full of water)
the gear motor will energize at the end of the 15 minute time
delay. The compressor and condenser fan motor energize 5
seconds after the gear motor.
2. More than 4 hours have passed since automatic shut-off.
The dump valve energizes to drain the evaporator. After 30
seconds the dump valve de-energizes. When the reservoir
fills with water, the water sensing switch closes and the gear
motor energizes. The compressor and condenser fan motor
energize 5 seconds after the gear motor.
NOTE: Ice machines use an auger to remove ice from the
evaporator. Occasional noises (creaks, groans, squeaks, or
pops) are a normal part of the ice making process.
PRIOR TO STARTUP
When the toggle switch is placed in the ICE position the following
must occur in the listed order before ice making will start.
• The ice chute damper must be in the closed or down
position.
• The 15 minute delay period must be expired. The delay
period starts upon application of power or toggle switch
movement from OFF to ICE.
• The water sensing switch must be closed (water reservoir
full of water and water sensing float in the up position).
