CONNECTING YOUR ICE MAKER

DANGER
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged please call our customer service at 1300 373 199.

1. This unit should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with an earthed plug which connects with earthed wall outlets to  minimize the possibility of electric shock.
2. Plug your appliance into a Domestic Power Outlet. Do not under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician.
3. This appliance requires a standard 220-240 volt, 50Hz electrical Domestic Power Outlet.

Before using your ice maker, it is strongly recommended to clean it thoroughly.
The ice maker is not designed to be installed in an outside area such as a garage or a porch. Ambient temperatures of below 50 ºF or above 100 °F will hinder the performance
of the appliance.

HOW TO CLEAN

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

1. The ice maker should be cleaned on a regular basis. (See:” HOW TO CLEAN”)
2. It is necessary to have adequate ventilation space around the ice maker in order to sustain proper performance, dissipation of heat, maintain efficiency, and low power consumption. Clearance of a minimum of 15cm should be maintained at the rear and sides of the unit and 20cm at the top of the unit.
3. To attain proper performance, be sure to plug the appliance into a properly grounded 220-240/50 Hz outlet.
4. Do not modify the power cord under any circumstances to allow the unit to be plugged into a non-grounded outlet. To avoid heat damage to the power cord, please ensure that it does not come in proximity or in direct contact with the compressor of the ice maker.
5. Please avoid installing the ice maker in a location where the appliance will come in contact with water or moisture to minimize rusting of metal parts.
6. The ice maker should not be installed near any heat source or in a location where it will come in direct contact with the sunlight.

USING YOUR ICE MAKER

1. Clean your ice maker thoroughly.

2. Open the cover, remove the ice basket and pour drinkable water (preferably purified water or distilled water) into the tank.

3. Plug in the unit and the “POWER” indicator light will blink.

4. Press “ON/OFF” on the control panel to begin the ice-making cycle. The “POWER” indicator light will illuminate.

5. Select the size of the ice cube by pressing the “SELECT” button. If the ambient temperature is below 16C it is recommended to select a small size to avoid ice sticking together.

6. While the ice-maker is operating, check the water level periodically. If the water pump can’t inject water, the ice maker will stop automatically, and the “ADD WATER” indicator will illuminate. Press the “ON/OFF” button, fill water up to the level mark, and press “ON/OFF” again. Allow 3 minutes for the refrigerant to settle before restarting.

7. The ice maker automatically stops working when the ice basket is full and the “ICE FULL” indicator will be illuminated. Warning: Direct sunlight or sunlight reflection may cause infrared sensor malfunction. If the unit does not stop, even ice cubes can obstruct the sensor, move the unit where there is no sunlight.

8. Change water in the water reservoir every 24 hours to ensure a reasonable hygiene level. If the unit is not in use, drain all water in the tank reservoir.
