OPERATION
Powering on
Switch on the power to the icemaker by pressing the power button on the display.Turn on the tap and water supply valve. Fill the icemaker sink with water.
Water pressure balancing
Upon first use, the icemaker will then automatically go through a process
using the water supply, water pump and pre-installed drain valve to balance
the water pressure in the machine. This process will take around 5 minutes.
Usually, the machine is connected to the power source continually.
NOTRE:
- The icemaker will take a few minutes after turning on to start up and prepare for icemaking.
- For the fastest results, ensure the door is closed during the icemaking process.
- The fan will start and stop intermittently to regulate the condenser’s temperature during the icemaking process.
- During first use, the icemaker may take longer to form ice cubes due to the higher temperature in the water inlet.
Ice release
Once the ice cubes are ready, the water pump will stop. The water supply valve
will open and any remaining water will go into the sink.
The condenser will then start a heating process to release the ice cubes from
the mould. This process will take around 2 minutes, following which the ice
cubes will drop into the cabinet.
The ice cubes will hit the sensor located the「ight side of the retaining board
to signal for a new icemaking cycle to begin. Water will then start pumping
back into the icemaker to make more ice.
After every four ice making cycles, ensure to drain the water out of the sink.
Note:
If the cabinet is full of ice cubes, ice cubes may become stuck between the
retaining board and evaporator, causing the retaining board to move away from
its original position and stop the machine from making ice.
Remove the stuck ice cubes to allow the retaining board to return to its
original position. The machine should resume icemaking.
Ice can also be made using the manual operation mode button on the display. Refer to the “Display” section below for details.
