English Pre-operating instructions

WARNING: 1. B

efore using your ice maker, it is strongly recommended to clean it thoroughly, without power. Clean the water reservoir and ice storage compartment with diluted vinegar, warm water and a soft cloth. Use water to rinse the inside parts, and drain out the water from the draining spout by unplugging the drain cap on the front (under water drip tray).

WARNING: 2. T he incline angle of the icemaker cabinet should not exceed 45˚

during transportation or use. Do not turn the icemaker upsidedown. 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.

3. Please ensure the icemaker is level and on a stable table or platform for safety

and to avoid malfunction.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. We suggest to use distilled, purified or bottled water instead of tap water. The

ice will taste better and will reduce the sediment caused by city tap water.

7. N

OTE: 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. 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 when the reservoir is empty and when the ice storage compartment is full. The icemaker also has built-in safeguards that can limit accidental damage, automatically shutting down the system when necessary.

English operating instructions Starting Off:

1. Open the access door on the front, right hand side of the unit, insert provided

funnel, and pour potable water (bottled water suggested) into the reservoir. Keep water level below the “MAX” water level mark on the inside wall of the reservoir. NOTE: If water is accidently filled above “MAX”, it will be channeled down the front of the unit and end up on the surface below. Maximum Water Level Fill the water here Funnel

2. Remove funnel and close reservoir door.

WARNING: D

o not pour water into ice storage compartment located on top of the unit. This will affect the ice making performance. Only pour water into the Water Reservoir Tank located on the front, right hand side of the unit.

3. Plug the unit into a grounded, 120V/60Hz outlet only. Push the ON/OFF

button on the control panel to turn ON the machine to begin the ice making cycle. You will hear the compressor and water flowing over the evaporator. The LED indicator just above the ON/OFF button will also light.

4. Each cycle produces 9 cubes of ice. The ice making cycle takes about 6 to 15

minutes, depending on the ambient (room) temperature. Ambient and initial water temperatures affect the actual ice making time. It is not suggested to try making ice if room temperature exceeds 90˚ degrees farenheit as ice making time may vary greatly.

5. The default size of the ice cube is medium. If you want small size cubes, press

the “Select” button on the control panel and the LED indicator should switch from “M” to “S”. If room temperature is lower than 60˚ degrees Fahrenheit, it is recommended to select small size cubes.

6. During the operation process, if the level of the water in the reservoir becomes

to low, the “Add Water” LED indicator will display. NOTE: If for any reason such as water shortage, to much ice, power off, etc., do NOT restart the machine right away. Wait at least 3 minutes before attempting to restart.

7. The ice maker automatically stops producing ice when the ice storage

compartment is full. The “Ice Full” LED indicator will light as confirmation. NOTE: A s a safety precaution, the auger inside the ice storage compartment and dispensing will automatically stop working if the transparent hatch on top of the unit is even partially open.

WARNING: D

o NOT attempt in any way to disable the safety switch activator on the transparent hatch or inside the ice storage compartment.

8. To dispense the ice, push forward on the ice cube dispenser paddle. That will

activate the auger inside the ice storage compartment, first back, then forward and allow ice cubes to drop down the shoot. The blue overhead light should also come on when paddle is pushed forward. NOTE: T ransparent hatch on top of the unit must be closed fully for auger to operate and ice to dispense. cleaning and maintenance
