The small ice indicator light flashes green, and the machine is in standby mode. Press the button again to select the size of the ice cubes. The corresponding indicator light will light up for a long time, and the machine will start producing ice cubes.

How to Use
To use the Wilfa Glacier Ice Maker ICM1-600, open the lid and take out the ice collecting tray. Add water to the container, making sure not to exceed the maximum water level indicator. Plug in the power cord and press the START/PAUSE button to start the machine. If the Add Water indicator light is on, add more water to the container and press START/PAUSE again.

The machine will enter cleaning mode, and the four lights will flash alternately. Do not disconnect the power supply during cleaning.

Troubleshooting
If the power cord is disconnected during an ice-making cycle or a power failure occurs, small pieces of ice may form and lodge in the automatic shovel, causing it to jam. To fix this, disconnect the power cord and gently push the shovel to the rear of the cabinet to remove the ice cubes. Then, restart the machine.

During transportation and installation of the appliance, ensure that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit becomes damaged.
If the refrigerant circuit should be damaged:
Avoid opening flames and sources of ignition.
Thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.

BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

Before using the Ice maker for the first time, please wait 2 hours after positioning it, and keep the lid open for at least 2 hours before turning it on.
During transportation, do not tilt the machine more than 45 degrees, and do
not reverse the machine. This may damage the compressor and the sealing system.
Remove all packing materials, check the machine carefully, and make sure that the machine, power cord, and plug are normal.
The machine should be on a level surface. To ensure sufficient ventilation, the distance of the back of the ice maker to the wall should be at least 15cm, it should be away from the oven, radiator or another heat source. Keep the appliance 8cm from other objects on the sides to ensure good heat release.
Make sure that the home voltage is consistent with the voltage indicated by the machine.
When the ambient temperature is lower than 15 degrees, please choose small ice. When the ambient temperature is higher than 30 degrees, it is recommended to choose large ice.
Do not use chemicals, or acidic or alkaline liquids to make ice.
Pure water is not allowed to be used on this unit, spring water is recommended.
It is normal for the compressor and condenser surface to reach temperatures between 70°C and 90°C during operation and surrounding areas may be very hot.
Due to fast freezing, ice cubes may be opaque. This is air trapped in the water and will not affect the quality or taste of ice.
Do not immerse in water.
Do not switch on the power button frequently (ensure 5min. intervals at least) to avoid damage of the compressor.

CLEANING

Unplug the appliance after using or before cleaning.
Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage systems.
Clean the inner liner, ice collecting tray, water tank, and ice scoop frequently. When cleaning, unplug the unit and remove the ice cubes. Use a diluted solution of water and vinegar to clean the inside and the outside surface of the Ice maker. Rinse thoroughly before use.
After being idle for a period of time, the ice cube maker may not be able to pump enough water up for air blockage. In this case, the water shortage indicator light is displayed, just press the START/PAUSE button to restart the ice maker.
To ensure the cleanness of ice, please change the water at least once one day. If you do not use it for a long time, please drain the water out and clean it.
If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch it off and leave the door open to prevent mold from developing within the appliance.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Please note, if a power failure occurs due to disconnection of the power cord, or the power button has been pushed off during an ice-making cycle, small pieces of ice form and lodge in the automatic shovel causing it to jam. If this occurs, the ice cubes can be removed by disconnecting the power cord and gently pushing the shovel to the rear of the cabinet and removing the ice cubes, then restarting.
Please check if the water container is flat when the ice shovel can not remove the ice to ice collecting tray. If not, please push the ice shovel gently by a finger, then press the START/PAUSE button to restart.
