BEFORE FIRST USE
This portable icemaker uses a fully automatic control system, with an advanced
microcomputer for easy and convenient ice making. Making ice is simple and
fast. Just add water, plug into an outlet, and press the ON button. You can
select one of the two ice cube sizes with the touch of a button. When first
turning on the unit or during icemaking cycles, the compressor will stay idle for
3 minutes, while energizing.
There are warning indicators that alert you to fill water when the reservoir is
empty and to remove ice when the storage basket is full. The icemaker also
has built-in safeguards that can limit accidental damage, automatically shutting
down the system when necessary.
The incline angle of the icemaker cabinet should not exceed 45˚ during
transportation or use. Do not turn the icemaker upside down.
Doing so could cause the compressor or refrigerating system to operate
incorrectly. When the icemaker is moved or transported, please allow time for
the fluids in the compressor to settle. Before using the icemaker for the first
time, please wait 2 hours after the unit has been leveled and positioned in its
proper place.
Please ensure the icemaker is level and on a stable table or platform
to avoid malfunction.
The machine must be placed on a dry and level surface with sufficient
ventilation, far from heat sources such as ovens, heaters and corrosive gases.
Leave an 8-inch clearance on all sides of the icemaker for proper ventilation.
Do not fill the water reservoir with hot water. This may damage the icemaker.
It is best to fill the water reservoir with water of room temperature or lower.

Press the Power Button and the green indicator light will remain on.
To change between either the small or large ice size, press the Select
Button until the light is lit up beside the desired ice size.
The first ice making cycle will last approximately 8 - 13 minutes
depending on the ice size that is selected. The ice making cycle starts
with water being pumped into the Water Tray situated below the
Evaporator Fingers. Over the next 8 - 13 minutes ice forms on the
Evaporator Fingers. Once this has completed, the Ice Tray will tilt
backwards and the remaining water in the Ice Tray is drained back into the
Water Reservoir. The ice cubes are then dropped from the Evaporator
Fingers and pushed forward into the Ice Basket by the Ice Shovel. The Ice
Tray will automatically move back into position under the Evaporator
Fingers and start the next cycle.
The 'Ice Full' LED light will light up when the ice basket is full and the Ice
Maker will stop the ice making cycle automatically. Gently remove the ice
from the Ice Basket with the Ice Scoop. Once the Ice Basket has been
emptied and the Cover closed, the Ice Maker will restart its ice making
function automatically. IMPORTANT: Wait 3 minutes then press the
Power Button to restart the ice making function.
The ‘Add Water’ LED light will light up when there is no more water in
the Water Reservoir and the ice making cycle will stop automatically. Press
the Power Button once (the Power Button will flash every 5 seconds).
Remove the Ice Basket and add water to the Water Reservoir.
NOTE: Do not fill above the MAX water level mark at the back of the
Water Reservoir. Replace the Ice Basket and close the Cover.
IMPORTANT: Wait 3 minutes then press the Power Button to restart the
ice making function.
When you have finished making ice, transfer the ice to a freezer.
NOTE: The ice will last in the Ice Maker for up to a 18 hour period,
depending on the ambiant temperature. Stop the ice making cycle by
pressing the Power Button. Unplug the unit from the wall outlet.
Open the Cover and allow the Ice Maker to reach room temperature
and follow the directions in the Care and Cleaning section.
