SAFE OPERATION MODE
Allows the ice machine to operate up to 72 hours if the
ice thickness probe and/or water level probe sensors
fail.
•
When the control board starts the safe mode an
alert is flashed on the LCD display to notify the
end-user they have a production problem.
•
The control board automatically initiates and
monitors the safe mode. The control will
automatically exit the safe mode if a normal signal
is received from the input.
•
After 72 hours the control board will enter a
standby mode and turn off
NOTE: The control board needs a five cycle history to
operate safe mode. If five cycles have never been
successfully completed the ice machine will shut-off.
•
Example - The ice machine is a new installation
and the water has not been turned on. The ice
machine will stop after five cycles with five long
freeze cycles and five water system faults in the
event log.

Questions and answers
Condenser **** won't stay on but a couple seconds
The condenser on the Manitowoc Indigo Series may not stay on for more than a couple of seconds due to several possible issues:
1. Fan Cycling Control – If a fan cycling control is used instead of a head pressure control valve, the condenser may not function correctly. The manual states that fan cycling controls should not be used as they can lead to compressor failure.
2. Improper Installation – Issues such as restricted airflow, dirty condenser fins, or high inlet air temperature can cause the condenser to shut down quickly.
3. Electrical Issues – Problems with the condenser fan motor circuit, such as exceeding the rated amps listed on the ice machine’s serial tag, could prevent continuous operation.
4. Refrigeration System Problems – An improper refrigerant charge or a defective head pressure control valve may cause the condenser to shut off prematurely.
5. Condenser Discharge Air Recirculation – If warm air from the condenser is recirculated back into the system, it can cause overheating and shutdown.
Checking these factors can help identify and resolve the issue.
