Setup Instructions

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the ice maker and all accessories from the packaging. Retain packaging for future transport or storage.
2. Placement: Place the ice maker on a flat, stable surface away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.
3. Allow to Settle: After transport, allow the unit to stand upright for at least 6 hours before plugging it in. This allows the refrigerant to settle.
4. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, it is recommended to run the self-cleaning cycle twice. Refer to the "Maintenance" section for detailed instructions.
5. Add Water: Open the lid and fill the water reservoir with clean, potable water up to the MAX fill line. Do not overfill.

3. Start Ice Production: Press the "ICE" button to begin the ice-making process. The "ICE" indicator light will turn green.
4. First Batch: The first batch of ice will typically be ready in about 5 minutes. Subsequent batches may be faster.
5. Ice Full Indicator: When the ice basket is full, the "ICE FULL" indicator light will illuminate, and the machine will pause ice production. Remove ice to resume.
6. Collecting Ice: Use the provided ice scoop to remove ice from the basket. The ice basket can store up to 1.8 lbs of nugget ice.
7. Drainage: The unit features a drainage hose for convenient water discharge. Ensure it is properly positioned when draining.

Maintenance

Automatic Self-Cleaning Function:

1. Prepare for Cleaning: Ensure the ice maker is empty of ice and the water reservoir is filled with clean water.
2. Start Cleaning: Press and hold the "CLEAN" button for 3 seconds. The machine will begin a 15-minute self-cleaning cycle.
3. Drain Water: After the cycle completes, drain the water from the reservoir using the drainage hose.
4. Repeat (Optional): For thorough cleaning, especially before first use, repeat the self-cleaning cycle.

Descaling:

To maintain optimal performance and prevent mineral buildup, descaling is recommended. The frequency depends on your water hardness:

• Moderately Hard Water: Descale monthly.
• Hard to Very Hard Water: Descale every two or three weeks.

Use a descaling solution suitable for ice makers or a mixture of water and white vinegar. Follow the product's instructions for descaling. After descaling, run several self-cleaning cycles with fresh water to rinse thoroughly.
