01Features
Our Ice Flaker Series are designed in cubic shape with the curved front panel and curved door (or
stainless steel at front panel and at door) for nice appearance. There are many advantages of the
ice maker, such as quick ice making, great ice making capacity, nice ice shape and ice dropping
quickly. Tap water inlet > water incoming > ice making > crush ice > ice dropping > ice storing, all these
processes are automatically controlled for ice making continuously. In case of water shortage or ice
full in the cabinet, the indicator on the operation board will light on accordingly and the ice maker
will stop operation automatically. The ice storage cabinet is PU foamed, so it is insulated well and it
could prevent the ice made from melting. Also, the remaining water after ice made each time is used
for recycling. So not only the water is saved, but also the ice making eciency is enhanced and the
energy consumption is reduced, and the customer’s ice making cost is also reduced much. Either
puried water or the tap water could be used for ice making.
02Notes Before Operation
1. The incline angle of the cabinet could not be over 45° during transportation. Don’t make ice
maker upside-down in case the compressor or refrigerating system troubles occur.
2. The ake ice maker should be placed on horizontal and structurally sound ground and away
from heat source and corrosive gas. At least about 150mm space should be left around the ice
maker to ensure the ne ventilation.
3. Before using the ake ice maker for the rst time, you should wait 12 hours after positioning it in
a proper place.
4. Voltage range: 187 ~242V(220V) and 100—130V(110V)
5. The rated capacity of wire should be over 6A, the section area of the wire is 0.75mm2.The wire could
be consisted by single ply or multiplies. The rated current of fuse is 5A.
6. The separate three-pole outlet should be used and the grounding must be good.
7. 1f the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or simi-
larly qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
8. This appliance is not intended for use by children or other persons without assistance or supervision
if their physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them from using it safely. Children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

04Operation Procedures
1. Unpack the package and take out the attached documents and spare parts such as the wa-
ter inlet and outlet tubes, ice shovel and gaskets, etc.
2. Position the ice maker on a well ventilated place and leave at least 150mm space between
the ice maker and the wall. Be sure the ice maker is positioned levelly and away from the heat
source.
3. Make one end of the Φ12 exible plastic corrugated pipe (supplied with the maker) connect-
ed with the water outlet tube on back of the maker, another pipe end should be placed in a
container for surplus water (prepared by user himself) or in the sewer.
4. Make one end of the water inlet tube (supplied with the maker)connected with the 3/4” screw
type connector of the water tap so as to get the drinkable tap water. The water pressure of wa-
ter supply pipe is 1.5 ~ 3 bar. The other end of the water inlet tube should be connected with
the screw type connector of water valve on the back of the ice maker. Be sure to put gaskets
(supplied with the maker) in both ends of the water inlet tube before connecting. If it is an ice
maker for puried water, a Φ12 corrugated pipe (supplied with the maker) should be used.
Connect one end of the pipe with the puried water supplier (desk-top water dispenser) and
another end with water valve connector on the back of the ice maker. The desk-top water
dispenser should be placed on the ice maker at the back position.
5. Make poser connection and press on the start button on the operation board for about 4
seconds till the run indicator and the big ice indicator (or small ice indicator) light on. Then the
maker begins to work. All the procedures, water inlet > ice making > crush ice > ice dropping >
ice storing, are controlled automatically for ice making continuously. If ice is full in the ice stor-
age container, the ice full indicator on the operation board will light on and ice maker will stop
automatically. If there is a water shortage or something wrong with the water supply system,
the Water shortage indicator will light on and the ice maker will stop operation automatically.
05Maintainence
1. If the compressor stops for any reasons like water shortage, too much ice, power o, etc., don’t restart
it right away. You can restart it about 5 minutes later.
2. Check regularly the connectors of the water inlet and outlet tubes and drain the little surplus water
that may leak.
3. If the ice make will be unused for a long period, please o the plastic drainage connector screw
on the back of the ice maker so as to drain the surplus water in the water groove. Then screw it on.
Wipe the inner liner of the ice storage container with a clean rag.
4. When plugging or unplugging, the plug should be held by hand and the wires should not be
dragged heavily.

07Troubleshooting
(FOR REFERENCE OF USERS AND TECHNICIANS)
TROUBLE CAUSE REMEDY
The Ice Flaker does not
work.
1. The voltage is lower than
the lower limitation
2. The ambient temperature is
too low (Lower than 10 °C)
1. Stop the ice maker and restart it
until the voltage is normal.
2. Try again when the ambient
temperature higher than 10 ° C
Water shortage
indicator light on.
1. Water shortage from the
water supply system.
2. Water valve damage.
3. Tap water pressure too low
1. Check the water supply. If ii is
OK, restart the maker.
2. Check the water valve.
3. Be sure the tap water pressure is
higher than 1.5 bar.
Compressor does not
work.
1. Water shortage.
2. Ice full.
1. Check the water supply system
(water valve and water supply
tube).
2. Take o some ice.

Compressor works, but
no ice is made.
1. Refrigerant leakage.
2. The refrigerating system is
blocked.
1. Recharge the refrigerant and
check the leakage again.
2. Charging N2 to check whether
the sysem is blocked and
replace the ller.
3. Check whether le fan is
running
Water shortage
indicator and ice full
indicator are glittering
at the same time.
If water inlet jam or running
failure because of low
environmental temperature.
Stop the machine until the
temperature reaches lOU or repair
it by authorized service people.
