Making Ice
Note: Before using for the first time,
clean the water tank, ice basket
and ice basket shelf. Use the first
3 ice making cycle to flush out the
system. Discard the water and ice
created from the first 3 cycles.
Each time the appliance is refilled, the first ice making
cycle is used to reduce the water temperature.
This results in uneven ice cube production which is
perfectly normal. You may wish to discard ice created
in the first two production cycles.
1. Lift the access lid and fill the water tank up the
level of the ice basket shelf.
2. Connect the appliance to the power and press
the “POWER” button.
3. Press the “SELECT” button repeatedly to scroll
through the ice cube sizes. Stop when the
required size is illuminated.
Note: The ice making cycle will
vary depending on the size of cube
selected. Larger cubes will take
longer to produce.
4. The appliance will run a start-up routine and then
begin ice production.
Note: If the water level is too low,
the ADD WATER indicator lights up
and the appliance stops working. Fill
the water tank and the appliance will
restart automatically.
5. When the cubes reach the ice sensor the
appliance will stop production. Production
resumes once ice has been removed.
Cleaning, Care &
Maintenance
• Always switch off and disconnect the power
supply before cleaning.
• Warm, soapy water is recommended for cleaning.
Cleaning agents may leave harmful residues.
DO NOT wash the base unit, instead wipe the
exterior with a damp cloth.

• Clean the water filter regularly with a small brush, particularly in hard water areas. The water filter is
located in the pump inlet at the bottom of the water tank, remove by pulling out with fingers.
• If the appliance is to be left unused for longer than 24 hours, loosen the drain screw and drain the water
from the tank.

Automatic cleaning
• Remove the ice basket. Then add dilute cleaner into the water tank. Note: Choose ice maker specific
cleaner and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

cleaning done, the “CLEAN” indicator will go out.

and ice created from these initial cycles.
