The Control Panel
There are light 3 indicators and 1 button on the control panel:
ICE FULL | Ice full alarm |

Power button |
Before First Use
ICE MAKING:
- When you plug in the ice maker machine the ICE MAKING light indicator will flash.
- Press the power button to switch on the machine. The ICE MAKING indicator light will stay on and the machine will start to make ice cubes.
- After the first batch of ice cubes have finished being made, the de-icing will activate, followed by the ice shovel which will move the ice into the ice basket.
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.
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
- 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 room-temperature 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.
- Put the ice basket back into the machine and close the lid.
- Plug in the machine and switch it on at the plug.
- Press the power button to start the machine.
- The machine will start to make ice cubes.
- The ICE MAKING indicator light will light up stay on while the machine works making the ice cubes.
- 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.
- 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.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Clean the inside of the machine (ice basket, water tank, ice shovel) and the ice scoop frequently.
How to clean your ice maker:
- Switch off the machine and allow it to de-ice for a 2-3 hours. Do not use any mechanical devices or any other means to accelerate the defrosting process.
- Before cleaning, unplug the machine and remove any ice cubes from the ice basket.
- 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.
- 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.
- Allow the machine to air and dry thoroughly. Keep ventilation openings in/ 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.
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. If this occurs, check that the machine is switched off at the mains socket, then gently push the shovel backwards towards the rear of the machine to remove ice chips. Then restart the machine as normal.
