CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The ice maker should be cleaned on a regular basis. (See the “HOW TO CLEAN” section on p.5)
It is necessary to have an adequate ventilation space around the ice maker in order to sustain proper performance, dissipation
of heat, maintain efficiency, and low power consumption. Clearance of a minimum of 5 inches should be maintained at the
rear and sides of the unit, and 8 inches at the top of the unit.
To attain proper performance, be sure to plug the appliance into a properly grounded 120/60Hz outlet.
To avoid heat damage to the power cord, please ensure that it does not come in proximity or in direct contact with the
compressor of the ice maker.
Please avoid installing the ice maker in a location where the appliance will come in contact with water or moisture, to minimize
the buildup of rust on the metal parts.
ONLY FRESH, CLEAN WATER CAN BE USED ON THIS APPLIANCE. THE USE OF JUICES, MILK, SODA, AND THE LIKE
MAY DAMAGE THE UNIT.
USING YOUR ICE MAKER
1. Clean your ice maker before using. Make sure the unit is off and unplugged from the outlet.
2. Open the cover, remove the ice basket and pour water into the tank.
Keep water level below the level mark:
NOTE:
Use distilled water for better results.
3. Place the ice basket back into the ice maker and close the lid.
4. Plug the unit into the electrical outlet. The power indicator light will blink.
5. Press “Power” on the control panel to begin the ice making cycle.
6. Press the “Select” button until the desired ice cube size indicator light ignites.
NOTE:
The duration of the ice making cycle depends both on the ambient and water temperature. Using warmer water
will prolong the ice making cycle; therefore, it is recommended that cold water is used.
7. The ice making cycle lasts 6 to 12 minutes, depending on the size of the ice cubes.
a. 6-minutes for small ice cubes
b. 9-minutes for medium ice cubes
c. 12 minutes for large ice cubes
NOTE:
If ambient temperature is below 60°F, it is recommended to select small or medium size to keep ice cubes from
sticking together.
8. While the icemaker is on, regularly check the “Add Water” indicator. If the water pump can’t inject water, the ice maker will
stop automatically and the “Add Water” indicator will be on. Turn the unit off using the “Power” button, then fill it again with
water up to the level mark.
Allow 3 minutes for the refrigerant to settle.
After the refrigerant has settled, press the “Power”
button again to restart the ice making cycle.
9. When the ice basket is full the “Ice” indicator light will ignite and the ice maker will automatically stop the ice making cycle.
NOTE:
DO NOT STORE THE UNIT WITH WATER LEFT INSIDE.
If unit is not in use for a few days stretch, drain all water in
the tank reservoir and refill before operating. Simply, remove the drain cap to expel water from the unit.
