C. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage
NOTICE
1. When shutting off the icemaker for an extended time, drain out all water
from the water line and remove the ice from the storage bin. The storage
bin should be cleaned and dried. Drain the icemaker to prevent damage
to the water supply line at sub-freezing temperatures, using air or carbon
dioxide. Shut off the icemaker until the proper ambient temperature is
resumed.
2. To prevent damage to the water pump, do not leave the control switch in
the "WASH" position for extended periods of time when the water tank is
empty.
When the icemaker is not used for two or three days under normal conditions, it is
suffi cient to only move the control switch to the “OFF” position. When storing the icemaker
