Q&A

1. How often do I need to clean my ice maker?****

– Depending on how frequently you use it, it is recommended that you clean it at least once a week. Failure to clean the machine will cause scale accumulation, which will eventually block the pump and cause the product to stop working properly.

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 the water at least once every three days (pulling out the small hose on the right side of the water tank). Draining will 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 the 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?****

– We recommend 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 span 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?****

– Since 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 surrounding the device, thus solving the problem. Feel free to try it yourself. 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 so thick and difficult to fall from the ice tray? What should I do?****

– It may be that your ice making time is set for too long, or it may be that the temperature of your environment is very low. You can reduce the time to 0 or -6 by pressing the minus key on the touch panel.

7. Why does the ice cubes 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 a 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 or not 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?****

– Please provide a video or picture and send it to us. The Euhomy team will assist you.

OPERATION PANEL AND DISPLAY AREA

1. Remove the water tank cover and pour potable water into the tank. Be sure to keep the water level

1. below the maximum level (see FULL mark in the image below).
   Warning: Do not pour water into the internal water tank located underneath the ice basket. This tank is not sufficient for proper ice-making.

2. How to turn on the unit: Plug in the unit. The electric power symbol < > will start to flash. The current ambient temperature will show at the top left corner of the display window. Press the ON/OFF button to start the unit. First, water will flow into the water tank to the standard water level. Then, the compressor will start running to make ice cubes. At the same time, the power symbol < > will change to steady, the ice cube symbol < > will rotate, and the ambient temperature display will disappear. After some minutes of ice-making duration, flashing digits will display in the ambient temperature display area. For example, if you see “10 M” flashing, it means that the ice-making process will take 10 minutes to complete.

3. When the < > symbol flashes, water will flow from the top water tank to the bottom water tank through the solenoid valve and the < > symbol will be on. When the bottom water tank is full, the < > symbol will turn off and the next ice-making cycle will start again. When there is no water in the water tank, the < > symbol will stay on. Turn off the unit and fill the tank with water again. Then restart the unit to make ice cubes. Or add water directly and wait 20 minutes; the unit will restart automatically.
   Note: The ice-making cycle lasts about 13 to 25 minutes, depending on the ambient temperature. And depending on the initial water temperature, the first ice-making cycle will be a little longer. In an extremely hot environment, ice-making time may vary but will not exceed 35 minutes.
   If you think the ice cubes are not substantial enough, you can increase the cycle time. Press the <+> or <-> to adjust the ice-making lead time in 1-minute increments (6 minutes maximum) at the start of the next cycle.

4. When the Ice Full indicator < > is on, the unit will stop running. Take out the ice cubes and the unit will start working again.
   While the ice maker is running, press and hold the <ON/OFF> button for at least 5 seconds to force ice harvesting. Press the <ON/OFF> button once to turn off the unit.
   There is a timer setting function on the machine. When the machine is working, you can set the shutdown time at regular intervals. The appointment time would be invalid after shutdown. When the machine is turned off you can make an appointment to turn on the machine.
   Press the button and the display will show <1H>. Press <+> and <-> to set the time. The “H” will flash while you are adjusting the setting. After 5 seconds of inactivity, the “H” will stay on and your timer setting will be saved.

5. Water drainage: Remove the water drainage cap the bottom of unit. Then drain out the water. It is suggested to change the water every 24 hours and clean the unit every 3 days.

Automatic self-cleaning program
TIMER/CLEAN”button on control panel for more than 5 seconds, to enter the self-Cleaning program need 20 minutes. the symbol rotate on display screens, time count down area display 20 M.
Cancelling the self-cleaning program:
It takes about 20 minutes to complete one self-cleaning cycle. When the cycle ends, the system will turn off automatically. You can also press the ON/OFF button to force stop the self-cleaning cycle.

Warning:
A.Be sure the water tank, water filter, and water separator pipe are not clogged. If they are, clean them before trying to make more ice.
B.The water temperature will affect the ice-making capacity. The cooler the water, the more ice cubes produced.
C .The ambient temperature will affect the ice-making capacity. The cooler the ambient temperature, the more ice cubes produced.
D.Always use good-quality water to help the pump work at optimal efficiency. Bad-quality water will cause the pump to make noise but will not keep the unit from working.
E . If you turn off the unit, the compressor will restart after 3 minutes.

Tips & Maintenance

CLEANING AND MAINTAINING YOUR ICE MAKER
Before using your ice maker, it is strongly recommended to clean it thoroughly.

• Take out the ice basket.

• Clean the interior with diluted detergent, warm water, and a soft cloth.

• Rinse the interior with clean water. Drain out the water through the drainage port by removing the drain cap on the back and taking out the silicone plug.

• The outside of the ice maker should be cleaned regularly with a mild detergent solution and warm water.

• Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.

• When the machine will not be used for a long time, open the drain cap to drain water completely out of the water tank.

• After using your ice maker for about 3 days, we suggest that you clean the unit. The water separator pipe and water filters in particular must be cleaned periodically.

• If you don’t hear liquid flowing while the compressor and water pump are running, the water separator pipe may be clogged. Please turn off the unit. Then remove this pipe down and clean it.
  Clean each hole along the pipe wall, as shown in the following picture. After cleaning, reinstall the water separator pipe in its original orientation, making sure that the right end of the pipe is connected to the silicone pipe well.

• Clean both water tanks with diluted detergent, warm water, and a soft cloth. Use clean water to rinse the inside of the unit. Drain out the water through the drainage port by removing the drain cap and plug on the back. Regular cleaning will keep the unit and your ice cubes sanitary, and also help the unit work normally.

• How to completely drain the internal tank and large water tank: The water in the large water tank is kept out of the drainage port by the water valve. If you want to drain out all the water, please plug on the unit but do not start it. Then remove the drainage port cap at the back. Wait a few minutes and then all of the water will flow out.
