USING YOUR ICE MAKER

1. Select the size of the ice cube by pressing the “Select” button. If the room temperature is

lower than 60°F, it is best to select the small or medium ice size, otherwise the ice cubes

might stick together.

2. Open the cover, remove the ice basket and pour water into tank.

Keep water level below the level mark.

3. Press “Power” on the control panel to begin the ice making cycle.

4. The ice making cycle lasts 6 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the ice cubes

selected.

5. While the ice maker is on, verify the water level periodically. If the water level is too low,

the ice maker will stop automatically, and the “Water” indicator will turn on.

Press the “Power” button, fill the unit with water, and press “Power” again.

Allow the refrigerant inside the compressor at least 3 minutes to settle before restarting.

6. The ice maker automatically stops working when the ice basket is full.

7. Change the water in the water reservoir every 24 hours to ensure a reasonable hygiene

level.

If the ice maker will not be used for an extended period of time, you should drain the water

from the reservoir.
