Adding Water:

The Aeitto ice maker offers two refill methods: manual and water connection.

• Manual Fill: Open the top lid and pour pure water directly into the water reservoir (3.7 L capacity) until it reaches the MAX fill line.

2. Press the POWER button to turn on the ice maker. The "MAKING ICE" indicator light will illuminate.
3. The ice maker will begin producing nugget ice. The first batch of ice typically takes about 5 minutes.
4. The unit will automatically stop making ice when the ice basket is full ("ICE FULL" indicator will light up) or when the water level is low ("ADD WATER" indicator will light up).
5. When the "ADD WATER" indicator lights up, refill the water reservoir. The ice maker will resume operation automatically after refilling.
6. When the "ICE FULL" indicator lights up, remove ice from the basket. The ice maker will resume operation automatically after ice is removed.
7. To turn off the ice maker, press the POWER button again.
