WARRANTY REGISTRATION
Proper registration must be completed within 30 days of the installation/startup date.
Registration of ICETRO Ice Machines is very important to the customer, dealer, distributor and to ICETRO. Proper registration will help to insure our customers of warranty service on their ice machine. This information also helps us to determine the location of the ice machine for the purpose of future maintenance needs and service bulletins to help keep the machines running efficiently for many years.
Equipment registration can be done in one of two ways. The first is through our website at www.icetroamerica.com. In the event that on-line registration is not possible, a registration card has been provided as an optional method for equipment registration. Be sure to complete the warranty registration with the installation/startup date and add a stamp before mailing. If the unit is not registered properly on-line or by using the registration card, the ship date to the distributor in our warranty records will be used for warranty determination.
Improper or non-registration can cost you, the customer, many months of deserved warranty coverage.

RETURNING DEFECTIVE PARTS
All defective parts replaced under warranty should be returned to the distributor, unless authorized to field scrap, along with the completed warranty labor invoice (original and one copy). You should not scrap defective warranty parts unless approved. Care must be taken to protect the defective part from additional damage since ICETRO Quality Control will do a detail analysis to try and determine what caused the failure. This provides us with information to help improve the quality of our products.
Follow these guidelines when returning defective parts:
- Do not cut a bin control capillary tube, thermistor, float or motor leads to make them easy to remove. These parts cannot be tested unless they are intact and warranty credit could be denied. A. – All electrical motors must have at least 4 inches of wire remaining to allow testing. Please ensure that all identification labels remain on the wire leads.
- Any accessory parts such as start components provided with the replacement part must be returned along with the defective part.
- Returned compressors must be sealed to prevent oil leakage during transportation. Failure to seal compressors will result in a charge of $100.00 for sealing and for clean crating or the claim may be denied.
- All returned parts must be listed on the invoice and also tagged with a material return tag. Small parts should be returned in an envelope or zip bag with the tag attached to the outside to protect the part from loss or additional damage.
CLAIM COPIES AND INQUIRES
