3 ICEMAKER
3.1 Ice Production
The icemaker comes out of the factory defaulted to off. To turn the icemaker on, press the MENU button and
continue pressing the button until the ICE option has been scrolled to.

Press the UP and DOWN buttons to turn the icemaker on or off. When the cubes are frozen, the icemaker
motor will turn the ice cube tray and twist the tray causing the ice cubes to dislodge and fall out of tray. The
tray will then return to its normal position and refill with water.

Note: If the FC is above 32ºF or ice bin is full, or has been removed, or fitted the wrong way around, the
icemaker will not operate.
3.2 Information About The Icemaker
• The temperature of the FC needs to reach 14ºF before the icemaker commences to operate.
• When first switched on the icemaker carries out a harvest with no water in the ice tray.
• Once the ice tray resumes its normal position the water will fill the tray. At this stage it will calculate the
amount of time taken to do a cycle and then flips. After this point it will run normally calculating the amount
of time for each batch. The rate of production will depend on the temperature of the freezer and will not
operate if the temperature is above 14º F.
NOTE: If the temperature is above 32ºF the ice/water tray will sit in this position and will not turn to
dispense.
• The cubes will be ejected from the mould into the ice bin.
It is suggested that the ice cubes are levelled with the ice scoop occasionally for maximum storage.
• The large and small freezer bins can be rotated if a large amount of ice is required.

3.3 To Manually Force Icemaker


(Products before January 2009)
Press and hold down the MEASURED FILL + UP + DOWN buttons for 4 seconds. This will activate the
icemaker. Note: if the bins are removed to observe the icemaker operation, the icemaker will start to rotate.
However, if the bin lever device is in a down position the icemaker will not rotate. The lever-lock needs to be
either removed or pushed backwards for the icemaker to complete a full rotation.

517804 D

3.4 To Manually Force Icemaker


(Products after January 2009)
Press LOCK key first, then DOWN + UP keys and hold all three (3) keys for 4 seconds. This will activate the
icemaker. Note: if the bins are removed to observe the icemaker operation, the icemaker will start to rotate.
However, if the bin lever device is in a down position the icemaker will not rotate. The lever-lock needs to be
either removed or pushed backwards for the icemaker to complete a full rotation.

NOTE: A forced harvest will operate without the product being down to temperature. If the harvest does not
work the sensor may be not connected or open circuit. The Icemaker sensor must be in circuit for a forced
harvest to work.

3.5 Ice Bin Full Sequence


When the ice bin is full the icemaker starts a sequence of testing to ensure ice harvest can continue. If the
icemaker senses the bin is full the motor resumes its normal position, 20 minutes later the testing sequence
commences until such time as the ice level is reduced by usage. The testing sequence happens every 20
minutes.

Bin in position
Bin lever – senses if there
is a bin in position or not.

If there is no bin, lever will


be in the down position as
shown.

Bin full of Ice


Lever sensing if ice bin is
full.

If bin is not full icemaker


continues rotation to eject
ice.

3.6 Safety First


• When first placed into operation, discard the first bin of ice as this will remove any impurities that may have
been in the water system.
• Do the same after vacations or extended periods when ice is not used.
• Ice cubes, when not used, will become cloudy, will shrink, and will taste stale. The ice bin will need to be
emptied and cleaned periodically.
• Avoid contact with moving parts of the ejector mechanism.
• Do not place fingers on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is turned on.

4 DIAGNOSTICS
4.1 Diagnostics
A spanner symbol and LCD fault code will appear automatically if there is a fault in the temperature measuring
system, defrost system, fans or low ambient heater. (Refer diagram below)
When the PC door is opened an alarm will sound, the number of beeps also indicates the fault code. Pressing
any of the control buttons can deactivate these alarms.

Example: When a fault develops, the LCD fault code appears with the spanner.

After rectifying the problem, the fault code and spanner will disappear. Faults are only rectified when that
feature is used. So in the case of a defrost fault, the code will remain until a defrost is initiated and it is
successful.

4.2 Fault Codes


Fault Code 1
Reason: On the last power up, the power module failed self test.
Primary Action: Replace power module.

4.3 Icemaker Fault Codes


If a fault should develop with the Ice Making system, a LED will illuminate on the ice making PCB, which is
attached to the power module. The LED is visible from the back of the product; hence the product must be
wheeled away from the wall to view the fault codes. The number of LED flashes represents the fault code with
the icemaker itself.

Code Fault
0 (No LEDs) No fault
1 Motor timeout
2 Motor Current High – motor obstructed
3 Temperature sensor too hot
4 Temperature sensor too cold (or open circuit)
5 Water solenoid – current high

4.4 Icemaker Display Faults


If a fault has occurred relating to the display board, the fault code will show on the display just like any other
fault. The fault history is a tool to view intermittent faults.
Note: There will be no alarm/beeping if these faults occur.

Code Fault
F30 No display signal received (Shorted or Broken wire)
F31 No display signal received (shorted or broken wire) clock or data line.
Additional Fault Codes
F32 Solenoid Driver 1&2 (transistor) has failed. Or the solenoid has failed
F33 Solenoid Driver 2 (transistor has failed
F34 Both Solenoid Drivers have failed
Additional fault codes have been added to the display module in order to detect water leaks or continual flow
of water from the dispenser should a fault appear. Previous to these changes the software only counted water
flow when the solenoid was on. The new version of software (V1.067) now counts water flow when the water
valve is on or off.

Fault Code 32, 33 and 34 initial detection.


The first time this fault is detected there are two possible scenarios of how the customer/user will see it
happen.
Possibility 1
1. Dispense water
2. Remove glass/cup
3. Water continues to dispense for 5 seconds
4. Fault is detected
5. Water stops
6. After a certain period of time the display will show the customer/user what the fault code is.

Possibility 2
1. Dispense water
2. Remove glass/cup
3. Water stops
4. Fault is detected 5 seconds after the cup is removed
5. Water stops
6. After a period of time the display will show the user what the fault code is.

If both solenoid drivers fail and/or the water valve fails.


1. Dispense water
2. Remove glass/cup
3. Water continues to dispense until water supply is turned off.
4. Fault is detected
5. After a period of time the display will show what the fault code is.

6.12 Noises
Ice and water into the Active Smart products introduced some unfamiliar sounds, which are normal. The
noises are difficult to hear and may not be heard during the day but during the night may sound louder.

Cracking Noise
The ice cracking is due to the ice tray being twisted to loosen the ice cubes in the ice tray.

Humming.
There will be a low humming noise when the ice tray motor/gearbox rotates the tray to flip the ice cubes from
the tray.

Clunking Noise.
Ice falling into the ice bin may initially make a noise then disappear. The reason for this is that there is no ice in
the bin but as the bin fills with ice the noise lessens.

Water Filling
After the ice trays bins empties and returns to its normal position the water valve comes on to refill the tray, the
noise will be a hissing or water running noise. How often this noise appears will be dependent on time the
water takes to reach freezing temperature.

10 ICE & WATER COMMON COMPLAINTS


The following are common complaints/problems/concerns regarding water and ice, which may or
have occurred. Explanation for these faults is given for the serviceman to better deal with customers
having concerns.

10.1 Sublimation
When ice is not being used on a continual basis, cold dry air from the evaporator passes over the ice,
causing the ice to dehydrate (evaporate, moisture is removed) and the ice will slowly disappear.

10.2 Ice Sticking Together


If the FC door is left open for an extended period or the ice bin is removed and allowed to warm up,
the customer may find the ice cubes sticking together in the bin to form a large block.
Where a large block of ice is formed, the block will need to be removed to start the ice making
process again.

Another reason for large blocks of ice can be due to water leaking from the fill tube onto the ice tray
and overflowing the mould, check for leaking diaphragm in the water inlet valve.

10.3 Discolouration / Metallic Taste


Where the water or ice cubes are discoloured, they should not be used. If the water is a greenish-
blue colour the reason for this happening is copper oxide. This is not a common fault but may
happen where the water supply to the house is in a copper pipe but for whatever reason the pipe is
not earthed. To overcome this problem, the pipe work should be earth bonded to the earth of the
house.

10.4 Bad Taste


Any fresh food, which is not sealed or wrapped when placed into the freezer, may contaminate the ice
with the taste of the unwrapped foodstuff. The ice will need to be thrown out and the ice-making
process started again. The customer must be advised to wrap all foodstuffs.

10.5 Ice Appears Cloudy


This problem occurs when air or air bubbles are in the water, which normally happens in the early
stages and will disappear with use.

10.6 Particles In Ice And / Or Water


This is normally due to a new filter where carbon dust in the new filter needs to be flushed out of the
system. The particles are harmless and safe for consumption; however, customers are advised to
flush the system of three (3) Quarts of water at every filter replacement. (Refer to Use and Care
manual).
