• Always operate the appliance on a dry, smooth, even and stable surface. Do not place the unit on a hot surface.

• Disconnect the mains plug from the power socket if you are going to be absent for long periods.

• Make sure that the appliance and its mains cable are not located close to hot surfaces.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, never operate this product near water, with wet hands, spill liquid on the appliance or submerge it in water or any other liquid.

• Do not use the ice maker machine near gas or other inflammable materials (such as benzene, paint thinner, sprays, etc.)

• Do not place the appliance on or near a hot gas or on a heated oven.

• Keep the machine 15cm from other objects to ensure heat has space to escape from the vents.

• Do not put any extension leads or portable power supplies near or behind the appliance.

• Do not use any accessories which are not recommended by Duronic.

• Do not insert any foreign or electrical objects into the appliance.

• Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in or next to this appliance.

• It is normal for the compressor and condenser surface to reach temperatures between 70°C and 90°C during operation and the surrounding areas may be very hot.

• Due to the fast freezing process, ice cubes may appear “cloudy”. This is normal, it is air trapped in the water during the freezing process and it will not affect the quality or taste of the ice.

• Clean water tanks if they have not been used for 48 h; flush the water system connected to a water supply if water has not been drawn for 5 days.

• If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry, and leave the door open to prevent mould developing within the appliance.

Introduction

If you like your drinks served over ice, you’ll love the ICM12 ice maker.
With the ICM12 automatic ice cube maker, you can make batches of ice in just 9 minutes. This is perfect if you want to make ice for a single drink or you can keep the machine running to cater for a party or barbeque. In 24 hours it can produce up to 12kg of ice.
This machine is very easy to use and you can even choose between small or large-sized bullet-shaped ice, which means you can even add ice to your water bottle too!

Before First Use

1. Before first use, remove all packaging and set aside.
2. Clean the ice basket, scoop and inside the machine for the first time as per the instructions in ‘Cleaning and Maintenance’.
3. Wipe clean the motor unit and dry.
4. Place the ice machine on a flat, dry surface and located close to an electrical mains socket.

ADD WATER:

• When the ADD WATER light turns red, it means that there is not enough water left in the tank. You will need to add more water and then press the power button to restart the machine.

Do not fill up the tank directly from a tap. When refilling the water tank, use a bottle or jug to pour water into it.
LARGE:

• Select this option to make large-sized bullet ice.

SMALL:

• Select this option to make smaller-sized bullet ice.

ICE FULL:

• When the ice cubes fill up the ice basket and it reaches the maximum capacity, the ‘ICE FULL’ light will flash, and the machine will automatically stop. You will then need to empty the ice basket using the ice scoop.
• Once the sensor inside the machine can detect the ice basket is empty, the machine will restart automatically and continue making ice cubes.

How to Use

1. Open the transparent lid, take out the ice basket and add water to the water tank. The water should not exceed the MAX mark. Use either cold or roomtemperature water to fill the tank. Do not fill the tank with hot water.
   If the water exceeds the MAX mark, you will need to drain a little water away.
   You do this by opening the bottom drain plug and releasing some water.

2. Put the ice basket back into the machine and close the lid.

3. Plug in the machine and switch it on at the plug.

4. Press the power button. All 4 indicator lights will momentarily light up and then turn off. Only the ‘SMALL’ light will remain on. The machine is now in standby mode.

5. To select the size ice you would like to make, press the power button again.
   The indicator lights for ‘SMALL’ and ‘LARGE’ will light up alternately switching between each one. Wait for the light to be lit on the size option you prefer and then press the power button to select the size.

6. The machine will then start to make ice cubes.

7. When the ice basket is full, the machine will automatically stop. Remove the ice cubes using the ice scoop. The machine will then restart and continue making ice cubes.

8. When you have finished making ice cubes, turn off the machine by pressing the power button again. Switch off the plug socket and unplug the cable from the mains socket.

To ensure the ice made is fresh, change the water in the reservoir at least once a day. If you do not plan to use the machine for a long time, drain the water out and clean the machine before storing it away.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Clean the inside of the machine (ice basket, water tank, ice shovel) and the ice scoop frequently. Before cleaning, unplug the machine and remove any ice cubes from the ice basket. Allow the machine to de-ice for a 2-3 hours. Do not use any mechanical devices or any other means to accelerate the defrosting process.
The machine can be cleaned in two ways: by hand or by using the Self-Clean function.
Self-Clean Function

1. Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds. All four indicator lights will flash alternately, and the machine will enter the self-cleaning function.
2. Water will flow through the machine in several cycles to flush it through.
3. For an extra deep clean, use a diluted solution of water and white vinegar to the water before using the self-clean mode.
4. After it has run a cycle of self-cleaning with this solution, empty the vinegar water solution, refill the tank with fresh water and run the self-cleaning cycle again
5. Allow the machine to air and dry thoroughly. Keep ventilation openings on the machine clear of obstruction.

Clean by Hand

1. Use a diluted solution of water and white vinegar to clean the inside and the outside surface of the machine using a cloth. Do not use chemicals or diluted agents such as acids, gasoline or oil on the machine.
2. After using the water/vinegar solution to wipe over the machine, rinse the cloth in water and wipe over the same parts again to clean away the solution.
3. Allow the machine to air and dry thoroughly. Keep ventilation openings on the machine clear of obstruction.

To ensure the ice made is fresh, change the water in the reservoir at least once a day. If you do not plan to use the machine for a long time, drain the water out and clean the machine before storing it away
Do not get the base of the juicer wet at any time as this may damage the unit or create an electrical safety hazard.

Troubleshooting

Note: If the power is accidently disconnected while the machine is on during an ice making cycle, small ice chips may form and lodge in the ice shovel.
