Function
The bin thermostat stops the ice machine when the bin
is full. It is preset for normal ambient temperatures and
adjustments are usually not required.
The level of ice in the ice storage bin controls the ice
machine shut-off. When the bin is full, ice cubes
contact the bin thermostat bulb holder, which cools
down and opens the bin thermostat to stop the ice
machine. The ice machine remains off until enough ice
has been removed from the bin. This causes the
thermostat bulb holder to warm and closes the bin
thermostat, restarting the ice machine.
The thermostat is functioning correctly if, when three
ice cubes are placed on the thermostat tube for 5
minutes, the ice machine stops. The ice machine
should restart 5 minutes after the cubes are removed.
