Normal Sounds
Your new ice maker may make some sounds that are not familiar to you. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces like the floor, walls and cabinets can make the sounds seem louder than usual. The following describes some kinds of sounds that might be strange to you and the reasons causing them.
You will hear a swooshing sound when the water valve opens to fill the water tank for each cycle. Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water in the water line. Items stored on top of the ice maker can also make noises. The high-efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high- pitched sound. Water running from the water tank to the evaporator plate may make a splashing sound. Water running from the evaporator to the water tank may make a splashing sound. As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your ice maker. You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan. During the harvest cycle, you may hear the sound of ice cubes falling into the ice storage bin.

14

When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water running continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a rinse cycle before it begins to make ice.
Preparing the Ice Maker for Long Storage
If the ice maker will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to another place, it will be necessary to drain out all of the water in the system. 1. Allow all of the ice cubes have been ejected from the evaporator of the ice maker. 2. Turn off the unit, and unplug the power cord. 3. Shut off the water supply at the main water supply. 4. Disconnect the water supply hose from the water inlet valve. 5. Pull out the Water drain pipe of the water tank indicating “F ” in the above illustration to drain out the
water in the water tank. When all of the water has been drained out, reinstall back the water drain pipe of the water tank. 6. Then drain out all of the water from the water drain port located at unit back indicating “9” in the above illustration. 7. Disconnect the water drain pipe to the main drain pipeline or floor drain, and plug on the drain cap again. 8. Drop the door open to allow for circulation and prevent mold and mildew. 9. Leave water supply hose and the power cord disconnected until reuse. 10. Dry the interior & wipe the outside of the unit. 11. Put a plastic bag on the unit to resist dust & dirt.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operations, unplug the ice maker from
the main power supply electricity. (EXCEPTION: Ice maker self-cleaning program). Do not use any alcohol or fume for cleaning/sanitization of the ice maker. It may cause cracks on the plastic parts. Ask a trained service person to check and clean the condenser at least once a year, in order to let the unit work properly. This appliance must be cleaned by use of a water jet.
If the ice maker has been left unused for a long time, before the next use it must be thoroughly cleaned. Follow carefully any instructions provided for cleaning or use of sanitizing solution. Do not leave any solution inside the ice maker after cleaning.
15

Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, hygienic, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets, or the unit is used outdoors, or there are other special considerations.
What shouldn’t be done
Never keep anything other than the ice in the ice storage bin: objects like wine and beer bottles are not only unsanitary, but also their labels may slip off and obstruct the drain pipe.
Exterior Cleaning
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution such as 28g of dish washing liquid mixed with 7.5L of warm water. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to prevent water spots.
Stainless steel models can be discolored when exposed to chlorine gas and should be cleaned. Clean stainless steel models with a mild detergent and warm water solution and a damp cloth. Never use abrasive cleaning agents.
NOTICE: Stainless steel models exposed to chlorine gas and moisture, such as in areas with spas or swimming pools, may have some discoloration of stainless steel. Discoloration from chlorine gas is normal.
Interior Cleaning
For Ice Storage Bin
The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the bin before the ice maker is used for the first time and reused after stopping for an extended period of time. It is usually convenient to sanitize the bin after the ice making system has been cleaned, and the storage bin is empty.
1. Disconnect power to the unit. 2. Open the door and with a clean cloth, wipe down the interior with a sanitizing solution made of
28g of household bleach or chlorine and 7.5L of hot water(95 to 115) . 3. Rinse thoroughly with clear water. The waste water will be drained out through the drain pipe. 4. Reconnect power to the unit.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other food container.
DO NOT use solent cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may transmit the taste of the ice cubes, damage or discolor the interior.
Ice Making Parts Cleaning
During the use, clean these main systems of your ice-maker periodically.
1 Repeat the above steps to clean the water tank and other inner parts of the unit. 2 Especially for the water dividing pipe on the evaporator, if the compressor and the water pump run

normally, but there is no water flowing out from the water dividing pipe or the water flowing is very small, please discharge this water dividing pipe and clean it carefully. Clean each little hole on the water dividing pipe displayed in the following illustration, make sure each hole is not clogged by something, then install it back to the original location. 3 When there are ice cubes on the surface of the evaporator, but can’t fall down easily, do not use the mechanical substance to remove them by force; Only press the “ON/OFF” button for more than 5 seconds, and the unit will enter the ice melting process, after some while, the big ice-cubes will fall down, then turn off the unit and unplug the power cord to clean the surface of the evaporator.
4. For the water tank and ice-full detecting plate Also, the water tank and the ice-full detecting plate are very important to keep your ice cube hygienic. Put the mixture of neutral cleaner & water into a clean water jet, then spray all the inner surface of the tank & the ice detecting plate. Wipe these surfaces as clean as possible with a clean cloth. And then, spray the surfaces with clean water, wiping with a dry clean cloth. Then drain out the cleaned water in the water tank by pulling out the Water drain pipe of the water tank indicating “F ” in the above illustration. When all of the cleaned water has been drained out, reinstall back the water drain pipe of the water tank.
