CLEANING AND MAINTAINING YOUR ICE MAKER
WARNING: Before using your ice maker, it is strongly recommended to
clean it thoroughly.
After using your ice maker for a long time, we also suggest you clean
your unit, especially the water separator pipe and water filters.
1. Take out the ice basket.
2. Clean the interior with diluted detergent, warm water, and a soft cloth.
3. Use diluted detergent, warm water, and a soft cloth to rinse the inside parts, and
drain out the water from the draining port by unplugging the drain cap on the back.
4. The outside of the ice maker should be cleaned regularly with a mild detergent
solution and warm water.
5. Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.
6. When the machine is not in use for a long time, open the water drain cap to drain
water completely out from the water reservoir.
7. If the water separator pipe is blocked and there is no water flowing down when you
listen, the compressor and the water pump inside are still working; please turn off
the unit first, disassemble the pipe and clean it. Clean each hole on the pipe wall
displayed in the following picture. After cleaning, install the water separator pipe
and make sure the right terminal of the pipe is connected to the silicone pipe.
8. Clean the water tank and the big water reservoir with diluted detergent, warm
water, and a soft cloth. Use the water to rinse the inside, and drain out the water
from the draining port by unplugging the drain cap on the back. This will ensure
the unit is properly maintained and operational.

9. When cleaning, if you find that the ice cubes are left on the evaporator and cannot
be taken out easily, you can turn on the unit to let the unit enter the ice making
process, then press the “ON/OFF” button for more than five (5) seconds to let the
unit start the ice making process to melt the ice cube. It will help you remove the
hard ice cubes.
DRAINING THE WATER FROM THE INTERNAL TANK AND BIG WATER RESERVOIR
Because the water value prevents water from draining in the reservoir, plug in the unit
(but do not startthe unit) and remove the drain port cap at the back if you plan on draining
all the water. Wait a few minutes for all of the water to flow out.

11
USING YOUR ICE MAKER
1. Remove the cover of the water reservoir and pour potable water into the water
reservoir. Be sure to keep the water level below the marked maximum FILL level.
CAUTION: Replace the back cover at once to avoid foreign matter
entering.
WARNING: Do not pour water into the internal water tank located
underneath the ice basket. This tank is not big enough and will affect
the ice making performance.
2. Plug in the main power supply plug. Press the “ON/OFF” button on the control
panel to being the ice making cycle.
Note: After you plug in the main power supply plug, the green power
indicator will be on for two seconds, then flash for three seconds. After you
turn on the unit by pressing the “ON/OFF” button, the green indicator will
keep lighting.
3. The ice making cycle will last anywhere from fifteen to thirty minutes, depending
on the surrounding temperature. Each initial ice making cycle will usually take
longerto complete as the unit needs time to reach maximum freezingtemperature.
In extreme hot room temperatures, ice making time may vary greatly, but should
not exceed fifty minutes.

USEFUL INFORMATION: After plugging in the unit, press the “ON/OFF” button for
more than five seconds, then release to start the unit. The unit will add three minutes
to each ice making cycle automatically to thicken the ice cube. If you want to thicken
your ice cubes, turn off the unit first, then press the “ON/OFF” button again for more
than five seconds to turn on the unit again.
4. While the ice maker is on, verify the water level of the internal tank located
underneath the ice basket periodically. If there is not enough water to last the ice
making cycle, the unit will automatically let the water flow from the big water
reservoir downward to the internal tank to continue the ice making process. If both
the internal water tank and big water reservoir do not have enough water, the ice
maker will stop automatically and the “ADD WATER” indicator will be on.
Note: Check to be sure that both the water filter located at the bottom of the
big reservoir and the internal water tanks are not blocked by a foreign
substance.
5. The ice maker automatically stops working when the ice basket is full and the
“FULL ICE” indicator is on.
6. Change the water in the waterreservoir every twenty-four (24) hours to ensure you
are using clean water. If the unit is not in use for a long time, drain all the water
that is left in the water tank and the water reservoir.
