Setup

1. Unboxing and Placement: Carefully remove the ice maker from its packaging. Place the unit on a stable, level surface away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the machine.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, clean the interior of the ice maker. Fill the water reservoir with clean water and a small amount of mild detergent. Run a self-cleaning cycle (refer to the Maintenance section for instructions). Drain the water and rinse thoroughly.
3. First Use Preparation: After cleaning, allow the unit to sit upright for at least 2 hours before plugging it in. This allows the refrigerant to settle.
4. Adding Water: Open the lid and fill the water reservoir with potable water up to the MAX fill line. You can also connect the 1.5L external water tank for extended operation.

Operating Instructions

1. Power On: Plug the ice maker into a grounded electrical outlet. Press the 'ON/OFF' button to turn on the machine. The 'Power' indicator light will illuminate.
2. Select Ice Thickness: Use the 'SELECT' button to choose your desired ice thickness: Thin (approx. 11 mins), Medium (approx. 15 mins), or Thick (approx. 20 mins). The corresponding indicator light will illuminate.
3. Ice Production: The machine will automatically begin the ice-making cycle. The first batch of ice may take slightly longer.
4. Ice Collection: Once ice is produced, it will drop into the ice basket. The 'ICE FULL' indicator will light up when the basket is full, and the machine will pause production until ice is removed.
5. Adding More Water: If the 'ADD WATER' indicator lights up, the water reservoir is low. Refill the reservoir or ensure the external tank is properly connected and filled.
6. Serving Ice: Use the included ice scoop to retrieve ice from the basket. For solid square ice, gently break apart the ice block with the scoop if needed.

Maintenance

1. Self-Cleaning Function: To activate the self-cleaning cycle, ensure the water reservoir is filled. Press and hold the 'ON/OFF' button for approximately 3-5 seconds until the self-cleaning indicator lights up. The cycle will run for about 20 minutes.
2. Draining Water: After the self-cleaning cycle or for manual cleaning, unplug the unit. Locate the drain plug at the bottom of the unit and remove it to drain all water.
3. Manual Cleaning: For thorough cleaning, wipe the interior with a soft cloth and a mild, food-safe cleaning solution. Ensure all surfaces are dry before reassembling and operating.
4. External Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the unit in water.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your ecozy Ice Cube Maker, please refer to the following common solutions:

• No Ice Production: Ensure the unit is plugged in and powered on. Check if the water reservoir is filled and if the 'ADD WATER' indicator is off.
• Ice is Too Small/Wet: This may indicate insufficient freezing time. Try selecting a thicker ice setting or ensure the ambient temperature is not too high.
• 'ICE FULL' Indicator On, But Basket Not Full: The ice sensor might be obstructed or dirty. Clean the sensor area.
• Unusual Noise: Some operational noise is normal. If the noise is excessive or unusual, ensure the unit is on a stable surface and not vibrating against other objects.
• Machine Not Turning On: Check the power connection and the electrical outlet.
