Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the ice maker from its packaging. Remove all packing materials, including any tape or protective film.

3. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, clean the interior of the ice maker. Refer to the "Maintenance and Cleaning" section for detailed instructions.
4. Power Connection: Ensure the voltage specified on the appliance matches your local power supply. Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
5. Water Supply:
   • Manual Fill: Open the top lid and fill the water reservoir with potable water up to the "MAX" fill line. Do not overfill.
   • Automatic Water Supply (if applicable): For models with direct water connection, connect the water inlet hose to a cold water tap and the ice maker. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks.

Making Ice

1. Power On: Press the ON/OFF button to start the ice maker.
2. Select Ice Size (Optional): Use the +/- buttons to adjust the ice making cycle time. A longer cycle results in thicker ice cubes.
3. Ice Production: The unit will automatically begin the ice making process. The "Ice Making in Progress" indicator will illuminate. The first batch of ice cubes will be ready in approximately 11-20 minutes.
4. Ice Collection: Once ice is produced, it will drop into the ice basket. When the ice basket is full, the "Ice Basket Full" indicator will light up, and the machine will pause production. Remove ice to resume.
5. Low Water: If the water level is too low, the "Low Water Level" indicator will light up, and the machine will stop. Refill the water reservoir to continue.
