Q&A

1. How often do I need to clean my ice maker?
   Depending on your usage habits, if you use it frequently, it is recommended that you clean it at least oncea week. Failure to clean the machine will cause scale accumulation, which will eventually block the pump and cause the product to fail to work.

2. How should I clean the machine?
   It is recommended to use lemon water or weak acid vinegar for cleaning. Drain immediately after cleaning, and then clean it with pure water.
   It is recommended to drain water at least once every three days. Draining can not only ensure that the hardness of the water is not too high, but also ensure that impurities can be discharged well, and it is not easy to produce scale in the water tank.

3. Why is my ice cube cloudy?
   It means that your water quality is turbid. It is recommended to use drinking water and distilled water. If your water quality problem is serious, it is recommended that you install a water filter kit.

4. Can I put milk and juice into the water tank to make ice cubes?
   It is recommended that you do not do that. Our research has found that the high concentration of milk and beverages can easily block the pump and reduce the life of the pump. At the same time, the protein in milk is prone to calcification, which chemically reacts with the PU water pipe inside the machine, which easily breaks it, making the product unable to continue working.

5. Why does my ice cube melt easily?
   Because the ice maker is not a refrigerator, it does not have a heat preservation function. The high ambient temperature in summer will accelerate the melting of ice cubes. You can close the lid of the machine to keep the internal temperature. Some customers also put electric fans on the side of the machine to blow away the hot air around, thus solving the problem, you can try. However, if you are not using ice cubes for a long time, we recommend removing them from the ice basket and storing them in the refrigerator.

6. Why is my ice cube so thick and what should I do?
   It may be that your ice-making time is set too long, or it may be that the temperature of your environment is low. You can try to adjust the size of the ice cubes.

7. Why does the ice cube I made have a plastic smell?
   The ice cube itself has no taste. If you feel there is a plastic smell, try to clean the inside of the machine with lemon water, then run a few cycles, and finally rinse with distilled water.

8. Why is there noise in the operation of my machine?
   There is a faint sound when the machine is running. Closing the lid can reduce the noise. If the water pump makes noise during use, it is recommended to turn off the machine first, and then turn on the machine after cleaning the filter in the water tank to observe whether the noise disappears.

9. Why is water leaking from my machine?
   It may be that the PUA tube inside the machine fell off during transportation. You can remove the back cover of the machine and connect it by yourself. If you don’t know how to operate, please contact the Euhomy team. We will give you a professional video to help you solve the problem.

10. Why is there water flowing but not making ice?
    If you make sure that the ambient temperature is not abnormal, then the refrigerant of the machine has leaked. Please provide a video or picture and send it to us, and the Euhomy team will help you.

Operation & Installation

ASSEMBLY AND PARTS BEFORE FIRST USE

• This portable ice maker uses a fully automatic control system with an advanced microcomputer for easy and convenient ice-making. Simply add water, plug into an outlet, and press the Power button. You can select one of two ice-cube sizes with the touch of a button.
• The ice maker will stay idle for 3 minutes when you first use it or in ice-making cycles. We suggest you discard the ice cubes made in the first four cycles to ensure that the machine is clean. Warning indicators will alert you to add water when the tank is empty and to remove ice when the storage basket is full. The ice maker also has built-in safeguards that shut down the system automatically when needed to limit accidental damage.

Note:

• The incline of the ice-maker cabinet should not exceed 45 degrees during transportation or use. Do not turn the ice maker upside down; doing so could cause the compressor or refrigerating system to operate incorrectly. When the ice maker is moved or transported, please allow time for the fluids in the compressor to settle. Before using the ice maker for the first time, please wait 2 hours after the unit has been leveled and positioned in its proper place.
• Please ensure the ice maker is level and on a stable table or other flat, horizontal surface to prevent malfunction.
• The machine must be placed on a dry and level surface with sufficient ventilation, far from heat sources, such as ovens and heaters, and from corrosive gases. Leave a clearance of 8 in. (20 cm) on all sides of the ice maker for proper ventilation. Room temperature should be between 50°F and 100°F.
• Do not fill the water tank with hot water. This my damage the ice maker. Use only lukewarm or cold water.

PREPARING YOUR ICE MAKER

• Remove the tape holding the ice scoop and ice basket.
• Clean the tank and ice basket with diluted detergent, warm water, and a soft cloth.
• Allow one hour for the refrigerant fluid to settle, then plug the ice maker into a grounded wall outlet.

USE YOUR ICE MAKER

• Wipe out the interior of your ice maker with a clean, damp cloth before each use.Before using your ice maker each time, wipe out the interior with a clean, damp cloth.
• When the machine is operating, please ensure the drain plug is closed and the water is enough.Plug the ice maker into a wall outlet and the green power indicator light.
• Open the cover and remove the ice basket.
• Fill the water tank. NOTE: Do not add water above the Max Water Level mark at the back of the tank.
• Replace the ice basket and close the cover.
• Press the Power button. The green light should illuminate, signifying that the unit is on.
• To choose small or large ice cubes, press the Select button until the desired ice size is indicated.

If the room temperature is below 60° F (15.6° C), select the SMALL ice cube size to prevent the ice cubes from sticking together .Press and hold the SELECT button for five seconds to run 8 continuous cycles, even when the ICE FULL indicator is on.

• The ice-making cycle will last about 8 to 13 minutes, depending on the ice size you select. The ice-making cycle starts with water flowing into the water tray below the evaporator fingers. Over the next 8 to 13 minutes, ice forms on the evaporator fingers. Once this happens, the ice tray will tilt back and any water remaining in the ice tray will drain into the water tank. Next, the ice cubes drop from the evaporator fingers. Then, the ice shovel pushes the cubes forward into the ice basket. The ice tray will automatically move back into position under the evaporator fingers and start the next cycle.
• When the ice basket is full, the Ice Full indicator will light up and the ice maker will automatically stop the ice-making cycle. Gently remove the ice from the ice basket with the ice scoop. Once the ice basket has been emptied and the cover is closed, the ice maker will restart its ice-making function automatically.
• When the water tank is empty, the Add Water indicator will light up and the ice-making cycle will stop automatically. The Power button will flash every 5 seconds. Press  the Power button once, remove the ice basket, and add water to the water tank.

Do not fill above the MAX water level mark at the back of the Water Reservoir. Replace the ice basket, and close the Cover. Wait 3 minutes then press the Power Button to restart the ice-making function.

• When you have finished making ice, transfer the ice to a freezer.
• When you have finished making ice, transfer the ice to a freezer. The ice will last in the ice maker for up to 18 hours, depending on the ambient temperature.
• Stop the ice-making cycle by pressing the Power button. Unplug the unit from the wall outlet.
• Open the cover and allow the ice maker to reach room temperature. Follow the directions in the Care and Cleaning section.
• Direct or reflected sunlight may cause the infrared sensor to malfunction. If the unit does not stop making ice cubes even when the ice basket is full, move the ice maker to a darker location.
• You must change the water in the tank at least every 24 hours to keep the unit hygienic and prevent bad-smelling ice.
