OPERATING YOUR ICE MAKER

5.1 TO OPERATE YOUR ICE MAKER

After initial cleaning, ensure that the Ice Maker is dry. Check your electrical power and the Ice Maker
placement. If everything is satisfactory, your Ice Maker is ready to operate.
1. Plug in your Ice Maker. Once plugged in, the power has been activated. The green LED light on the power button will blink approximately every 5 seconds.
2. Open the cover, take out the ice basket and fill up the water reservoir. Water should not pass the water level line.
3. Put the ice basket back and close the cover.
4. Press the “Power” button. The unit automatically selects Medium (“M") sized ice. The green LED light above “M”, on the control panel, should be on. After a while, you will hear the sound of the unit begin
to function.
5. Press the “Select" button to select the ice size. This unit can make three sizes of ice: small, medium
and large which are represented by “S" “M" and “L" respectively on the control panel. When the ice size is selected, the LED light above the corresponding size will be on to indicate the size selected.
6. Each ice-making cycle lasts 7 to 13 minutes depending on the ice size selected. The machine will begin its ice-making function within 13 minutes.
7. When one cycle of ice-making is finished, the unit will put the ice into the ice basket. Verify the ice
quantity periodically. When the unit produces the desired amount of ice, press the “Power" button to stop the ice-making function.
8. The red “Ice” LED light will light up when the ice basket is full. The Ice Maker will stop automatically
when the ice basket is full. Gently remove the ice with the Ice Scoop. Once the basket has been emptied and the cover closed, the unit will restart its ice-making function automatically.
9. Verify the water level periodically. The red “add/water" LED light will light up when there is no more
water in the reservoir. The Ice Maker will stop automatically when there is no more water. Press the
“Power" button to stop the ice-making function. Refill the Ice Maker with water (see Step 2). Press
the “Power" button to restart the ice-making function.
10. When the Ice Maker is finished making ice, press the “Power" button to stop the ice-making function.
