4. Nastavení a instalace

Proper installation is critical for the performance and longevity of your ice machine. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified technician.

4.1 Vybalení

Carefully remove the unit from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage. Report any damage to the carrier immediately. Due to the unit's weight (224 lbs), use appropriate lifting equipment or assistance to prevent injury.

4.2 Požadavky na umístění

• Odbavení: Ensure adequate air circulation around the unit. Maintain at least 6 inches of clearance at the back and sides for proper air-cooled condenser operation.
• Teplota: Install in an area where ambient temperatures are between 50°F (10°C) and 90°F (32°C).
• Úroveň povrchu: The machine must be installed on a level, sturdy surface capable of supporting its weight when full of ice and water. Use the adjustable bin legs to level the unit.
• Vodovod: A potable water supply with a pressure between 20 psi and 80 psi is required. An inline water filter is highly recommended.
• Vypouštění: A floor drain or standpipe drain must be available within 6 feet of the unit. The drain must be lower than the unit's drain outlet.

4.3 Elektrické připojení

Connect the unit to a dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz, single-phase electrical supply with appropriate overcurrent protection. Do not use extension cords. Ensure the electrical outlet is properly grounded.

4.4 Připojení vody a odpadu

Connect the water supply line to the inlet valve on the back of the machine. Connect the drain line from the unit to the floor drain, ensuring a continuous downward slope for proper drainage.

4.5 Počáteční čištění

Before first use, clean the ice storage bin and all surfaces that will come into contact with ice. Use a mild, food-safe sanitizer solution and rinse thoroughly.

5. Návod k obsluze

5.1 Spuštění stroje

1. Ensure all water and electrical connections are secure and the water supply valve is open.
2. Zapojte jednotku do určené elektrické zásuvky.
3. Turn the power switch (if present, typically located on the front or side panel) to the "ON" position. The machine will begin its startup sequence and initiate ice production.

5.2 Cyklus výroby ledu

The RNS-0385A operates automatically. Water flows into the evaporator, where it is frozen into nugget ice. The ice is then harvested and dropped into the storage bin. The machine will continue to produce ice until the bin is full, at which point a bin thermostat or sensor will pause production. Production will resume as ice is removed from the bin.

5.3 First Ice Batch

The first few batches of ice may be smaller or irregular. It is recommended to discard the first 2-3 batches of ice to ensure the system is fully purged and clean.

6. Údržba

Regular maintenance is essential for efficient operation and to prolong the life of your ice machine. Always disconnect power before cleaning or servicing.

6.1 Čištění exteriéru

Clean the exterior surfaces with a mild soap and water solution. Wipe dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads.

6.2 Čištění interiéru a koše

The ice storage bin should be cleaned and sanitized regularly (at least weekly, or more often depending on usage). Remove all ice, clean with a food-safe cleaner, rinse, and then sanitize with a food-safe sanitizer solution. Allow to air dry or wipe with a clean cloth.

6.3 Čištění kondenzátoru

The air-cooled condenser coil (located behind the front panel) must be cleaned monthly. Dust and lint accumulation can restrict airflow, reducing efficiency and potentially causing compressor failure. Use a brush or vacuum cleaner to remove debris from the fins. Do not bend the fins.

6.4 Water System Cleaning and Descaling

Periodically, the water system and evaporator may require cleaning and descaling to remove mineral buildup. The frequency depends on water quality. Use Manitowoc-approved ice machine cleaner and descaler solutions, following the product instructions carefully. This procedure typically requires a qualified technician.

6.5 Výměna vodního filtru

If an external water filter is installed, replace cartridges according to the manufacturer's recommendations, typically every 6 months or when pressure drop indicates clogging.
