PRODUCT OVERVIEW

CONTROL PANEL

BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Remove all packaging materials and read all instructions.
2. Check that all accessories are complete and the appliance is not damaged.
3. Clean all parts to remove any dust or manufacturing residue.
4. The ice maker should be placed on a level surface. Adjust the four black feet on the bottom of the unit until it is stable and even.
5. The incline angle of the ice maker should not exceed 45°during transportation or use. Do not turn the ice maker upside down. Doing so could cause the compressor or refrigerating system to operate incorrectly. Please allow time for the liquid in the compressor to settle after the ice maker is moved or transported. Before using the ice maker for the first time, please wait for 2 hours after the unit has been positioned on a level surface.
6. The appliance must be placed on a dry and level surface with sufficient ventilation, far from heat sources such as ovens, heaters and corrosive gases. Leave around 15cm clearance on all sides of the ice maker for proper ventilation.
7. Do not fill the water reservoir with cold or hot water. This may damage the ice maker. It is best to fill the water tank with water that is from a tap or room temperature. The water quality added to the tank should be drinkable.
8. It is recommended the minimum inlet water pressure is 0.04MPa and maximum inlet water pressure is 0.8MPa.
9. Do not use the appliance at a very cold environment (lower than 8°C).
10. Clean the unit by following the operation of “CARE & CLEANING” on page 12 before operating.
