Using Your Ice Maker

Important: Ensure drainpipe plugs are firmly inserted before use. Do not add water manually if the ice maker is connected to the water supply system to prevent overflow.

Two Ways to Add Water

1. Manual Addition: Fill the reservoir with clean potable water up to the MAX line. Suggested water temperature: 40~82°F.
2. Automatic Addition: Insert the provided hose into the water inlet. Connect the other end to your water supply system. A 1/4" connector may be required. To remove the hose, hold the gray ring and pull out.

Operation: Plug the unit into an electrical outlet and press the ON/OFF button to begin the ice making cycle. The ON/OFF indicator will be solid.

Completion: Once the ice making cycle is complete, the ON/OFF indicator will turn off. Use the ice scoop to remove the ice cubes.

? Tips & Tricks

• Water Quality: Keep your water clean. Perform self-cleaning or remove scale/mineral build-up periodically to prevent germ growth.
• Ice Storage: The ice basket is not refrigerated; ice will melt if not used. Transfer ice cubes to a freezer for longer storage.
• Ambient Conditions: Suggested ambient temperature: 50~90°F. Suggested water temperature: 40~82°F.

Care and Cleaning

Self-cleaning

3. Clean the exterior using a soft cloth dampened with soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth.

Removal of Scale/Mineral Build-up

⚠️ For scale or mineral build-up, follow these steps for deep cleaning periodically or as needed. Do not use solvents or chemicals.

1. Fill the reservoir with water to the MAX line.
2. Add vinegar or a citric acid descaling agent. Let it sit for 12 hours or overnight.
3. Hold CLEAN for 3 seconds to start the self-cleaning cycle. Repeat up to 3 cleaning cycles.
