FAQ

Q: What are the water supply requirements for the KM-161BAJ?

A: The ice machine requires a minimum 1/4" Nominal ID Copper Water Tubing or equivalent for the water supply line. The water pressure should be between 10-113 PSIG, and the water temperature should be within 45-90°F.

Q: How much clearance is required for proper installation and operation?

A: The KM-161BAJ requires at least 12" (30 cm) clearance at the front, at least 0.6" (15 mm) clearance at the top for maintenance, and enough space at the rear for water supply and drain connections.

Q: What type of warranty does the KM-161BAJ come with?

A: The KM-161BAJ comes with a 3-year parts and labor warranty on the entire machine, a 5-year parts and labor warranty on the evaporator, and a 5-year parts warranty on the compressor and air-cooled condenser coil.

Q: Can the KM-161BAJ be paired with a filtration system?

A: Yes. For optimal ice quality and machine longevity, Hoshizaki recommends using compatible filtration systems such as the H9320-51 Single 4HC-H Water Filter System, the H9655-11 4HC-H Replacement Cartridge, or the 9795-80 E-10 Prefilter System.

Detailed Features & Benefits

Advanced Ice Production Technology: The KM-161BAJ produces up to 163 lbs of crescent-shaped ice cubes per day. These cubes are formed on a stainless steel evaporator, ensuring crystal-clear ice that cools beverages efficiently without rapid dilution.

Energy-Saving CycleSaver™ Design: This system reduces the number of start-stop cycles, saving energy and lowering operating costs. It also extends the life of the compressor, making the machine more reliable over time.

User-Friendly Operation: The power switch is accessible without panel removal, allowing quick control. A slide-in door provides easy access to the ice storage bin, making retrieval simple and efficient.

Maintenance Made Simple: Front-in, front-out airflow and a removable air filter streamline cleaning and servicing. The EverCheck™ alert system continuously monitors performance, notifying users of potential issues before they escalate.

NOTICE: Ensure proper maintenance and cleaning of your ice machine to guarantee the highest quality ice production and machine longevity.
