• Place the ice maker on a flat, stable, and heat-resistant surface.
• Ensure there is at least 6 inches (15 cm) of clearance around the appliance for proper ventilation.
• Avoid placing the unit near heat sources or in direct sunlight.

3.3 Initial Use

4.1 Adding Water

1. Open the lid and remove the ice basket.
2. Fill the water reservoir with potable water up to the MAX fill line. Do not overfill.
3. Replace the ice basket and close the lid.

4.2 Powering On and Selecting Ice Size

1. Plug the ice maker into a grounded electrical outlet.
2. Press the ON/OFF button to turn on the appliance. The "POWER" indicator will illuminate.

4.3 Ice Production Cycle

• The ice maker will begin producing ice approximately 6 minutes after starting.
