UC-15I Ice Maker Auto Delay Feature
Topics:
- What is the repeat delay function on the UC-15I?
- How is the auto repeat delay function set on UC-15I?
- How many hours can auto repeat delay be set on the Undercounter Ice Maker model UC-15I?
Answer:
UC-15I Undercounter Ice Makers have an auto delay feature to delay ice production for 24 hours.
- The ice maker does not make ice when the unit is in Delay or Repeat Delay mode.
- Ice melts inside the bin during the delay. How much ice is dependent on the ambient temperature and the amount of ice in the bin.
- Setting a repeat delay allows for targeted ice production during the times when ice is most used every day. The Repeat Delay stays set until the Repeat Delay is disabled, or a power failure occurs.
- After power failure, Repeat Delay turns off so it must be reactivated.
- If the ice maker is in the middle of a cycle, it may be possible to hear one batch of ice drop after repeat delay is turned on.
- Repeat Delay is only available starting with the following serial numbers:
Model | Repeat Delay Starting Serial # |
UC-15I | 3880920 |
UC-15IP | 3880971 |
UC-15IO | 3880955 |
UC-15IPO | 3881075 |
To initiate Repeat Delay:
- With the unit turned off, touch Delay one, two, or three times.
- Touch Delay once for a 2-hour delay.
- Touch Delay twice for a 4-hour delay.
- Touch Delay three times for an 8-hour delay.
- Do not turn the unit back on. It will start after the selected delay period.
- The automatic delay will occur every 24 hours at the set time, but must be reset after a power outage.
- The ice maker will not produce ice during the set delay time.
- The delay will repeat every 24 hours from the time the automatic delay was entered.
- Example: If an automatic delay is turned on at 2 p.m. for a two-hour delay period, the unit will not make ice until 4 p.m. The unit will repeat this delay from 2 to 4 p.m. daily until the feature is turned off.
- To cancel repeat delay, turn the unit off, then back on.
- See UC-15I Use and Care for further details.
