Package Contents
Your COWSAR Nugget Ice Maker package includes the following items:
- Ice Maker Unit
- Ice Scoop
- Ice Basket
Initial Setup
Before plugging in your ice maker, allow it to stand upright for at least 2 hours. This allows the refrigerant fluid to settle, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of the appliance. Once settled, place the unit on a stable, level surface away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
For first-time use, it is recommended to clean the interior of the ice maker with diluted detergent, warm water, and a soft cloth. Then, drain the water and dry the interior completely.

Operation Guide
To begin ice making, ensure the ice basket is in place. Open the lid and pour fresh water into the reservoir up to the maximum fill line. Close the lid. Press the 'ON/OFF' button once to start the ice making process. The indicator lights will provide status updates:
- ICE FULL: Illuminates when the ice basket is full, and the machine will pause ice production.
- ADD WATER: Illuminates when the water reservoir is low, indicating a need to refill.
The transparent window allows you to monitor the ice making process.

Care and Cleaning
The COWSAR Nugget Ice Maker features an auto self-cleaning function. To activate, simply hold the 'ON/OFF' button for 5 seconds. The self-cleaning cycle will run for approximately 15 minutes, helping to maintain hygiene and performance.
For descaling, especially in areas with hard water, add 20 ounces of white vinegar or a dedicated descaling cleaner to the water tank and then start the self-cleaning cycle. Regular descaling is recommended monthly to prevent mineral buildup and ensure efficient operation.

Troubleshooting Common Issues
If your ice maker is experiencing issues, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- "ADD WATER" light is on but reservoir is full: This may indicate a sensor issue or a need for descaling. Perform the self-cleaning cycle as described in the Maintenance section. Ensure the unit is on a level surface.
- Unusual noise or smell: If you notice a loud grinding noise or a burning smell, immediately unplug the unit. This could indicate a mechanical issue. Perform a self-cleaning cycle with descaling solution. If the issue persists, discontinue use and contact customer support.
- Ice production is slow or stops: Ensure the water reservoir is filled to the MAX line. Check that the ice basket is not full. Perform a self-cleaning cycle to remove any mineral buildup that might be affecting performance.
