• Open the flip cover and remove the crushed ice tray cover. Manually add ice cubes to the "Crushed Ice Bowl", close the "Crushed Ice Bowl Cover" and flip it tightly, then press the "Crush Ice" button to crush the ice. The ice cubes are automatically dispensed and ejected from the Crushed Ice dispenser.
• In the process of crushing ice, press the "Crush Ice" button from the ice crusher.

5. Dispense ice cubes/ ice water

• Gently press the Pour Ice button, the impeller in the ice bin will begin to rotate and the ice cubes will begin to fall from the Pour Ice position. Press the Pour Ice button again and the impeller will stop rotating, ending the ice dispensing process. For optimal ice dispensing, make sure there are enough ice cubes in the ice tray and a cup ready to be filled with ice cubes.
  • Gently press the "Pour Water" button, water will flow from the "Pour Water" position. Press the Pour Water button again to stop the ice water coming out.

Note: If you press the "Pour Water" button without first operating the "ICE CUBES" or "ICE WATER" buttons, the water that comes out will not be ice water. The "Pour Water" function is automatically deactivated if it is used for more than 10 seconds.

Important information

• Check the cleanliness of the water tank and ice bin. Please clean and change the water regularly.
• The temperature of the added water directly affects the ice production. The lower the water temperature, the greater the ice production.
• The lower the ambient temperature where the machine is placed, the greater the ice production.
• The quality of the water used will affect the life of the machine's water pump. It is best to use softened water, pure water or drinking distilled water. Some abnormal noises during the operation of the water pump are caused by impurities in the water. This is a normal phenomenon and does not affect the use of the machine.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Unpack the unit.
• Use a neutral detergent, warm water and a soft cloth to scrub and clean the water tank, crushed ice tray, crushed ice tray cover and silicone hose.
• The machine cabinet can be cleaned with the machine switched off. It is best to wipe with a dry cloth.
• You can also add water to make ice for 1–2 cycles, then throw away all ice cubes and water.
  • After cleaning, replace the drain plug at the bottom of the machine.
• If the machine has not been used for a long time, drain the water in the water tank.
