I purchased the unit from a private party and the original owners manual was not available. Having the ability to download it was extremely helpful and clarified operating the equipment immensely. This is a complicated unit and without the manual I would not have been able to maximize it's potential. Thank you.
Being a user of older radios of many kinds, preferring them over more modern rigs, this manual was invaluable in the programming of my two. I now know for certain what the assorted buttons functions are, and am very grateful to have found this excellent site. Many thanks for your assistance, Tony.
5 star quality on these downloadable manuals. Easy to read and all the information is there. A must when doing a custom install or needing to service your precious old school electronics.

Cleaning and caring for your ice maker
Periodically inspect and clean the ice maker to keep it operating at peak efficiency and to prevent premature failure of system components. Both the ice making system and the air cooled condenser need to be cleaned regularly. The minerals rejected from the circulating water during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard scaly deposit in the water system which prevents a rapid release of the ice from the freezing plate. Clean the ice and water system periodically to remove mineral scale build-up. Frequency of cleaning depends on water hardness. With sofi water, cleaning may not be required for several years. With hard water (15to 20 grains/gal.), cleaning may be required as frequently as every six months.
A dirty or clogged condenser:
0 prevents proper air flow. l reduces ice making capacity. l causes higher than recommended operating temperatures which may lead to component failure.
Cleaning exterior surfaces
Wash the exterior enamel surfaces and gaskets with warm water and mild soap or detergent. Rinse and dry. Regular use of a good household appliance cleaner and wax will help protect the finish.
