BEFORE FIRST USE
This portable ice maker 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/OFF
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 ice-making 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.
Please read carefully
1.
The incline angle of the ice maker cabinet should not exceed 45˚ during
transportation or use. Do not turn the icemaker upside down. Inverting the
ice maker could cause the compressor or refrigerating system to operate
incorrectly. When the ice maker is moved or transported, please allow time
for the fluids in the compressor to settle. Before using the ice maker for the
first time, please wait 2 hours after the unit has been leveled and positioned
in its proper place.
2.
Please ensure the ice maker is level and on a stable table or platform to
avoid malfunction.
3.
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" (20 cm) clearance on all sides of the ice maker for
proper ventilation.
4.
Do not fill the water reservoir with hot water. This may damage the ice
maker. It is best to fill the water reservoir with water of room temperature
or lower.
PREPARING YOUR ICE MAKER
1. Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
2. Make sure that the ice basket and ice scoop are inside. If any parts are
missing, please contact customer service.
3. Remove the tape holding the ice scoop and ice basket.
4. Clean the tank and ice basket with diluted detergent, warm water, and a
soft cloth.
5. Allow one hour for the refrigerant fluid to settle, then plug the ice maker in
to a grounded wall outlet.
6
USE YOUR ICE MAKER
Making ice
Prior to using your ice maker each time, wipe out the interior with a clean,
damp cloth
1.
Making Ice Ensure that the drain plug underneath the front of the unit is
closed and the water tube screen is in place.
2.
Plug the ice maker into the wall outlet and the green power indicator light
3.
Open the cover and remove the ice basket.
4.
Fill the water reservoir. NOTE: do not fill above the max water level mark
at the back of the water reservoir.
5.
Replace the ice basket and close the cover.
6.
Press the ON/OFF button and the green POWER LED will light signifying
that the unit is on.To change between either the small or large ice size,
press the SELECT button until the desired ice size is indicated.
Notes
• If the room temperature is below 60° F (15.6° C), select the
SMALL ice cube size to prevent the ice cubes from sticking
together.
• Press and hold the SELECT button for five seconds to run 8
continuous cycles, even when the ICE FULL indicator is on.
7.
The 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.
8.
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.
9.
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.
7
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.
10.
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.
Caution
• Direct sunlight or reflected sunlight may cause the infrared
sensor to malfunction. If the unit does not stop making ice
cubes even when full, move the ice maker to a darker
location.
• You must change the water in the tank at least every 24
hours to ensure a reasonable hygene level and avoid bad
smelling ice.
MAINTAINING YOUR ICE MAKER
Your ice maker is designed for year-round use with only minimal cleaning
and maintenance.
When you first receive it, wipe the outside with a mild detergent and warm
water, then wipe dry with a dry cloth. Do this periodically to keep your ice
maker looking new.
Caution
To prevent damage to the finish, do not use:
• Gasoline, benzine, thinner, or other similar solvents.
• Abrasive cleaners.
