  3. Press the “ON/OFF” button on the control panel to turn the appliance on.
  4. Select ice cube size by pressing the “SELECT” button. If the room temperature is lower than 15 °C, we recommend selecting small ice cubes in order to prevent the ice from sticking together.
  5. The ice cube cycle is between 6 and 13 minutes, depending on ice cube size and room temperature. The recommended room temperature is 10 °C to 43 °C.
  6. If the “Add Water” indicator is lit up, water must be refilled before the ice cube cycle starts again. Press the “ON/OFF” button, fill water up to the maximum water level and press the “ON/OFF” button again to turn the unit back on. Allow the appliance to rest for at least 3 minutes before starting it again.
  7. If the “Ice Full” indicator is lit up, the unit will stop and the ice cubes must be removed from the basket.
  8. For reasons of hygiene, the water in the container should be changed at least once a day.

Warning : Direct sunlight or glare from sunlight could result in infrared sensor failure. The sensors in the appliance will then not function optimally. Keep the unit away from sunlight.
