The hot gas valve energizes,allowing hot gas to enter and warm the evaporator.The water valve is also energized, aiding with harvest,as well as filling up the sump with fresh water for anew freeze cycle.at the point of 2 minutes to freeze end , board will readthe ” liquid line temperature”again and calculate the“harvest time”The ice falls from the cups and is directed into the binby the ice chute. The harvest cycle continues until theharvest time has elapsed,then machine goes into anew freeze cycle4. Automatic Shut-OffWhen the storage bin is full, the ice will come incontact with the bin thermostat which is located insidethe bin. The machine will stop after approximately45seconds of continuous ice contact with the binthermostat probe.The ice machine remains off until a 3 minutes delayhas elapsed and enough ice has been removed fromthe storage bin to allow the ice to fall clear of the binthermostat probe. As the ice clears the probe, the binthermostat warms up and the machine starts anotherfreeze cycle.NOTE:Be Careful not to turn the ice machine to WASH bymistake. If so then you will need to follow theWASH procedure until finished.
