The POWER indicator light will flash when the unit is plugged in. Once turned on the unit enters
standby mode. Press the POWER button to begin operation. If the POWER button is pressed
during operation, the machine will return to standby mode.
Press the SELECT button to choose the ice size. The default size is large ice. When you select the
desired ice size, the corresponding indicator light of S(small) or L(large) will illuminate.
When the ADD WATER indicator light is illuminated, it means there is insufficient water in the water
reservoir. More water will need to be added, and the POWER button will need to be pressed to
restart the machine.
When the ice compartment is full, the ICE FULL indicator will flash, and the machine will stop
working. The ice will need to be removed to make room for more ice.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Open the lid and take out the ice basket and add appropriate water into water reservoir.
NOTE: The water in the water reservoir should be lower than the MAX fill line. If the water is above the
MAX fill line, then open the water drain plug and drain excess water. Once finished close the transparent
lid.
2. Plug the power cord into a power outlet, and press the POWER button to start the machine.
3. Select the desired ice size by pressing the SELECT button (default ice size is ‘L’).
NOTE:
•Select the small ice size when ambient room temperature is below 15°C. When the ambient
temperature is higher than 30°C, large ice cubes are recommended.
•The ice may be small and irregular in size for the first three cycles.

•When the ice basket is full please remove the ice immediately, do not allow the ice basket to overfill.
CLEANING
1. Clean the inner lining, ice basket, water reservoir, ice shovel and evaporator frequently. Before commencing
any cleaning, unplug the unit and remove any ice cubes. Use a diluted solution of water and vinegar to clean
the inside and the outside surface of the Ice Maker. Do not spray Ice Maker with chemicals or diluted agents
such as acids, gasoline or oil. Rinse thoroughly.
2. Keep any ventilation openings of the appliance clear of obstruction. Do not use mechanical devices or other
means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
3. Reuse the machine after being inactive for a period of time.
4. To ensure the cleanliness of ice, change the water in the water reservoir at least once per day. If you do not
plan on using the Ice Maker for a long time, then completely drain the water from the unit.
5. If the unit stops working due to water shortage, ‘ice full’ or interrupted power supply, it will remain off for 3mins
and will resume after 3 minutes has passed.
6. Always use fresh water before starting any ice making.
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. PLEASE NOTE: If a power failure occurs due to disconnection of the power cord, or the off power button has
been pushed during an ice making cycle, small ice chips may form and lodge in the automatic shovel causing it
to jam. If this occurs, the ice chips must be removed by disconnecting the power cord and gently pushing the
shovel to the rear of the cabinet and removing the ice chips, then restarting.
2. Please check if the water reservoir is flat when the ice shovel cannot move the ice to ice basket. If not, please
push the ice shovel gently with your hands, then press the POWER button to restart.
