direct sunlight and other sources of heat (i.e. stove, furnace, radiator). Place
the RETRO SERIES™ ICE MAKER on a flat, level surface. Make sure that there is at
least 4 inches of empty space all around the RETRO SERIES™ ICE MAKER.
5. Allow one hour for the refrigerant fluid to settle before
plugging the cord into an outlet for the first time.
6. Confirm that the chosen location for placing your RETRO
SERIES™ ICE MAKER is near an electrical outlet.
CONNECTING YOUR RETRO SERIES™ ICE MAKER
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical
shock. DO NOT use the machine If the power cord is damaged.
Plug your appliance into a properly installed, grounded wall outlet. Do not under any
circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions
concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician.
USING YOUR RETRO SERIES™ ICE MAKER
1. Open the cover, remove the Ice Basket and pour water into the
Water Resevoir. Keep the water level below the level mark.
2. Press ON/OFF Power Button on the Control Panel to begin the ice making cycle.
3. Select the desired size of the ice cubes by pressing the Ice Size Button. If the
room temperature is lower than 60°F (16°C), it is recommended to select the
small or medium sized ice cubes in order to keep ice from sticking together.
4. The ice making cycle lasts 6 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of
the ice cube selection and the ambient temperature. In the extreme
hot temperature, ice making time may vary considerably.
5. While the ice maker is on, verify water level periodically. If the water
pump cannot inject water, the RETRO SERIES™ ICE MAKER will stop
automatically, and the Add Water Indicator light will turn on.
6. Press the ON/OFF Power Button to turn the unit OFF, fill water up to the level
mark and press the ON/OFF Power Button again to turn the unit ON again.
7. The RETRO SERIES™ ICE MAKER automatically stops working when
the Ice Basket is full and the Ice Indicator light comes on.
8. Change the water in the Water Reservoir every 24 hours to ensure a reasonable
hygiene level. If the unit isn’t in use, drain all water left in the tank.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that the RETRO SERIES™ ICE MAKER power is
disconnected during the ice making cycle or that the LED lights on the Control
Panel are blinking, press the ON/OFF Power Button to stop the ice making cycle.
Unplug the unit from the power source. Let the RETRO SERIES™ ICE MAKER sit for
a few minutes to let it warm up and allow ice to fall from the evaporator fingers.
Empty the Water Tray and wait three minutes before restarting the unit.
DO NOT touch the Evaporator while the unit is in use or during the ice making
process. This could cause severe burns.
