CONTROL PANEL OPERATION!
The indicator of POWER will flash after being plugged in, and then the machine
enters the standby state. It will start to work by pressing the POWER button,
accompanying indicator lighting. During operation, pressing this button, the
machine will return to the standby state.
This button is for selecting the size of ice. The default setting is large
ice, if the small one is needed, pressing this button is available. When you
select the desired size, the corresponding indicator of S (small) or L (large)
will be on.
Press and hold the “SELECT” button for 3 seconds to activate the pipeline
self-clean process, which takes “pump water in for 30 seconds—water tank run
to drain out water” as a circle, and this circle will run for 5 times.
Flashing of indicators of “S” and “L” will take place in turn until the self-
clean process is over and the machine enters standby mode. Take away the
plastic plug to drain water and then the whole process is finished.
When the indicator of this button turns to red, it means insufficient water to
the water reservoir, you need to add enough water and press the POWER button
to restart the machine.
When the ice reaches to the max storage capacity, the indicator of this button
will flash, and the machine will stop working. What you need to do is pour out
the ice, if the position of ice is lower than the position of ice bin full
sensor, the machine will restart automatically.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS!
- Note : Water reservoir and pipeline should be well cleaned before use.
- Step 1. Plug out, and clean the water reservoir by adding water, then take the plastic plug away to drain out the water from the water reservoir.
- Step 2. Reinstall the plastic plug, and add appropriate clean water. After connecting the power supply well, press and hold the “SELECT” button for 3 seconds to activate the pipeline self-clean process. After cleaning, drain out the water by taking plastic plug away.
- Step 3. Open the lid and take out the ice basket to add appropriate water into water reservoir. Note: The water poured into water reservoir should be lower than the water reservoir’s MAX position. When water volume goes beyond the max, please open the bottom water drain plug to drain the spare water out. Then close the transparent lid.
- Step 4. Select the desired ice size, the default size of the machine is large one.
- Note: Please select the (S) when the ambient temperature is below 15°c.When the ambient temperature is higher than 30°C, Large ice cube sizes are recommended.
- Note: For the first three cycles, the ice may be small and irregular in size.
- Note: When the ice collecting tray is full please remove the ice immediately, Do not allow the ice collecting tray to overfill.
CLEANING & USE GUIDANCE!
- Clean the inner liner, ice collecting tray, water box, ice shovel and evaporator frequently. When cleaning, unplug the unit and remove the ice cubes. Use a diluted solution of water and vinegar to clean the inside and the outside surface of the Icemaker. Do not spray Ice maker with chemicals or diluted agents such as acids, gasoline or oil. Rinse thoroughly before starting.
Remove the ice cube Drain Plug tray, empty the water by turning the drain plug.
- Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure, or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction. Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
- Reuse the machine after being idle for a period of time, it may not have enough water to pump for air retard, and the indicator of “ADD WATER” will keep lighting. At this time, you just need to press the POWER button again, the machine can enter the normal state.
- To ensure the cleanness of ice, please change water for the water reservoir at least once one day. If do not use for a long time, please drain the water out and clean it up.
- If the compressor takes a strike action for shortage water, fully water or interruption of power supply, it will delay for 3mins to start up after restarting.
- Always use fresh water before starting ice production either at initial installation or after a long shut-off period.
TROUBLESHOOTING!
- Please note, if a power failure occurs due to disconnection of the power cord, or the power button has been pushed off during an ice-making cycle, small ice chips may form and lodge in the automatic shovel causing it to jam. If this occurs, the ice chips may be removed by disconnecting the power cord and gently pushing the shovel to the rear of the cabinet and removing the ice chips, then restarting.
- Please check if the water reservoir is flat when the ice shovel can not remove the ice from the ice basket. If not, please push the ice shovel gently by finger, then press the POWER button to restart.
