Section 7 Refrigeration System
Part Number 80-1630-3 7-9
Safety Limit #1
Refer to previous page for safety limit operation.
Freeze time exceeds 60 minutes for 6 consecutive freeze cycles.
SAFETY LIMIT NOTES
• Because there are many possible external problems,
do not limit your diagnosis to only the items listed in
this chart.
• A continuous run of 100 harvests automatically
erases the safety limit code.
• The control board will store and indicate only one
safety limit – the last one exceeded.
• If the toggle switch is moved to the OFF position and
then back to the ICE position prior to reaching the
100-harvest point, the last safety limit exceeded will
be indicated.
• If a Safety Limit light did not flash prior to the ice
machine restarting, then the ice machine did not stop
because it exceeded a safety limit.
