This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a),a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has,however,led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor,you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable,and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.

4. Grasp the center of handle and lift it upwards (see figure 3), check and make sure that there shall be no abnormal condition can be found.
   

• Ensure the appliance is level and on a stable table or platform to avoid malfunction.
• The incline angle of the ice cube maker cabinet should not exceed 45°during transportation or use. Do not turn the appliance upside down. Doing so could cause the compressor or refrigerating system to operate incorrectly. Please allow time for the fluids in the compressor to settle after the appliance is moved or transported. Before using the ice cube maker for the first time, please wait for 2 hours after the unit has been levelled and positioned in the proper place.
• 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 about a 15 cm clearance on all sides of the appliance for proper ventilation.
• Do not fill the water reservoir with hot water. This may damage the ice cube maker. It is best to fill the water reservoir with water of room temperature or lower.
• Do not use the appliance at a very cold environment (lower than 5 °C)
• Clean the appliance before use (see section ,,Cleaning and Maintenance”).

COMMISSIONING AND OPERATION

1. Ensure that the drain plug at the bottom of water reservoir is closed well.

7. The ice-making cycle will last approximately 7-15 minutes, depending on the ambient temperature and water temperature.

8. The ice-making cycle starts with water being pumped into the ice tray situated below the evaporator. Over the next 7-15 minutes ice forms on the evaporator. Once this has completed, the ice tray will tilt backwards and the remaining water in the ice tray is drained back into the water reservoir. The ice cubes are then dropped from the evaporator and pushed forward into the ice basket by the ice shovel. The ice tray will automatically move back into position under the evaporator and start the next cycle.

9. The “ICE FULL” indicator will light up when the ice basket is full and then the ice cube maker will stop the ice-making cycle automatically. Gently remove the ice from the ice basket with the ice scoop. About 7.5 seconds later, the ice cube maker will restart its ice making function automatically.
