Check that the drain plug underneath the ice maker is closed well.
Open the water tank lid and remove the ice basket.
Fill the water tank with at least one litre (1L) of potable water between 5°C to 32°C.
NOTE: Do not overfill water above the MAX level marking.
Reinstall the ice basket and close the water tank lid.
Connect the power supply cord to a power outlet and turn on the power switch. The ice maker will beep once and briefly light up its indicator.
Press the POWER button on ice maker control panel to start making ice.
WARNING: Once the ice maker is turned on, do not open the evaporator lid and do not touch the evaporator surface to avoid frostbite.
Press the CUBE SIZE button to select an ice cube size. If room temperature is below 15°C, choose a smaller cube size to prevent ice linking. Each ice making cycle takes approximately 8 to 15 minutes, and may vary depending on the selected cube size and room temperature. The size of ice cubes depends on the water temperature and the ambient temperature.
When the ice making cycle starts, the UV function is turned on by default. Press the UV button to toggle the UV function off and on.
When the ice basket is full, the ICE FULL indicator light turns on and the ice maker automatically stops making ice. Open the water tank lid and use ice scoop to gently remove ice cubes from the ice basket.
Once the ice maker is turned on, check the water level in water tank regularly. The ice maker requires enough water for cooling and freezing during operation. When there is insufficient water, the water pump inside the ice maker may suck in air, resulting in reduced pump efficiency and potentially damage.
If the machine water pump does not get enough water, the ice maker will automatically stop, and the WATER SHORTAGE light turns on indicating lack of water. When this happens, remove the ice basket, refill water into the water tank, replace the ice basket, close the water tank lid, and then press POWER button to restart ice making process.
To manually stop the ice making process, press the POWER button to turn off the ice maker. Then turn off power at power outlet. Remove ice cubes from the ice basket and drain the remaining water.
