Always throw away all ice cubes made during the first two to three hours of operation. Initial Start-Up Once installation and leveling is complete, the unit is ready for initial start-up and operation. The display panel is located inside the unit, on the top of the refrigerator side (see Figure 53, 1). Other Settings Other settings for the unit are factory preset.
Start-Up Troubleshooting Who to Call Q: Service Information Problem Unit does not appear to turn on when POWER icon is pressed. A: Solution Remember that the compressor will not operate until the water has been filling for about 3 minutes. Make sure unit is plugged in and outlet has power (circuit breaker has not tripped). If the unit is equipped with a drain pump, check that the drain line is not obstructed. Unit will shut down due to the safety design of the pump if water cannot drain.
