HOW TO OPERATE

BEFORE FIRST USE

Follow the steps under CLEANING & MAINTENANCE before using this unit.
Place the unit on a flat, level surface in a location that is protected from direct sunlight and other sources of heat (i.e. stove, furnace, radiator). Ensure there is at least four inches of empty space on all sides of the unit.
Allow one hour for the refrigerant fluid to settle before plugging the cord into an electrical outlet for the first time.

USING YOUR ICE CUBE MAKER

.Open the Clear Lid to remove the Ice Basket and pour water into the Water Resevoir. Keep the water level below the MAX level mark. If water levels exceed the MAX level mark, drain any excess water by removing the Water Drain Plug.
Press the POWER button on the LED Control Panel to begin the ice-making cycle.
Select the desired size of the ice cubes by pressing the SELECT button. If the room temperature is lower than 60°F (16°C), it is recommended to select the small-sized ice cubes in order to keep ice from sticking together.
Each ice-making cycle lasts 6 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the ice cube selected and the ambient temperature of the room. In extremely hot temperatures, ice-making time may vary considerably.
While the ice maker is on, check the water level periodically. If the water pump is unable to pump water, the unit will stop automatically and the Add Water light will illuminate.
If the water level is low, press the POWER button to turn the unit OFF, fill water up to the MAX level mark and press the POWER button again to turn ON the unit again.
The unit automatically stops working when the Ice Basket is full and the ICE FULL light will illuminate.
To ensure a reasonable hygiene level, change the water in the Water Reservoir every 24 hours. If the unit isn’t in use, drain all water left in the Water Reservoir.

IMPORTANT NOTE : In the event that the power is disconnected during the ice making cycle or that the LED lights on the Control Panel are blinking, press the POWER button to stop the ice making cycle. Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Allow the unit to sit for a few minutes to let it warm up and allow ice to fall from the evaporator fingers. Empty the Water Tray and wait three minutes before restarting the unit.
DO NOT touch the Evaporator while the unit is in use or during the ice making process. This could cause severe burns.

HELPFUL TIPS

ADD WATER INDICATOR

If the Add Water Indicator comes on, try the following:

Turn off the unit, add water, and press the POWER button again to restart the unit.
There may be too much ice. Turn off the Ice Maker, remove some ice from the Ice Basket.

ICE CUBES STICK TOGETHER

The ice cycle may be too long. Stop the Ice Maker, then restart it when the ice cubes melt. Select the smaller sized ice cubes using the SELECT button.
The water temperature in the Water Resevoir may be too low. Change the water in
the Water Resevoir. The room temperature should be set between 45° F – 90° F.

ICE MAKER NOT WORKING

If the ice-making cycle seems to be running properly, but no ice is being made, try the following:

The ambient temperature or water temperature in Water Resevoir may be too high. The unit must be in an environment below 90° F. Try pouring colder water (between 45° F – 90° F) into the Water Resevoir.
If changing the water or allowing the unit to cool does not work, there may be a leakage of the refrigerant fluid, or a pipe in the cooling system may be blocked.

LED LIGHTS

If the LED lights on the Control Panel are blinking, there may be a disruption in the power source. Press the POWER button to stop the ice-making cycle. Let the ice maker sit for several minutes to let it warm up and allow ice to fall from the evaporator fingers. Empty the Water Tray and wait three minutes before restarting the unit.
