GETTING TO KNOW YOUR ICE MAKER

1. Ice Basket and Scoop : used for storing and serving the ice.
2. Ice Window : allows you to check how much ice has been produced without having to open the top and letting warm air in.
3. Air Vents : Located on the back and sides of the unit, these vents help prevent the unit from overheating. Please leave at least six inches of space all around the unit for proper ventilation.
4. Water Drain : allows you to empty the water from the tank easily.
5. Max Fill Line : Inside the water tank below the ice tray is a line marking labeled “MAX.” Do not fill the water tank above this line.
6. Controls/Indicator Lights :
   • STANDBY MODE : Once you plug in your ice maker, a red LED ring will light up to indicate the unit is waiting to produce ice. It will not make batches until the unit has been activated with the power button.
   • POWER BUTTON : Press the power button once to turn on your ice maker. Once on, a blue LED ring will light up and the unit will begin to make ice. To turn the unit OFF, hold the power button for 3 seconds. The red LED ring will light up and the ice maker will go back to standby mode.
   • ICE FULL : There is an infrared sensor that helps detect when the ice tray is full. When the tray is full, ice production will stop, the unit will turn off, and the “Ice Full” indicator will light up. To restart the ice production process, empty the ice basket, and press the power button twice. The first press of the button will put the ice maker in standby mode, the second will turn the unit on and it will start to make ice again.
   • ADD WATER : When the “Add Water” indicator lights up, the unit will turn off and you will need to pour more water into the water tray below the ice basket. After you have refilled the water tray, press the power button twice to restart the ice production process. The unit will continuously produce ice if there is water in the tank and the ice tray is not full.
