3. Instellen
3.1 Uitpakken en plaatsen
- Verwijder zorgvuldig al het verpakkingsmateriaal en controleer de ijsmachine op eventuele beschadigingen.

3.2 Water Inlet Options
The ice maker offers two methods for water supply:
- Kraanwatermodus: Connects directly to a faucet for continuous water supply.
- Self-Priming Mode: Draws water from an external water bottle (e.g., 5-gallon jug) using the included self-priming hose.

Connecting the Water Inlet:
- For Tap Water: Connect the included water inlet pipe to the 'Tap Water Inlet' port at the rear of the ice maker. Secure the other end to your faucet using the provided connector.
- For Self-Priming: Insert the self-priming hose into the 'Self-Priming Water Inlet' port at the rear. Place the other end of the hose into a bucket or water bottle. The pump will automatically draw water when the machine operates.

4. Bediening
4.1 Voorbereiding voor het eerste gebruik
- After connecting the water supply and drain, plug the ice maker into a grounded electrical outlet.
- It is recommended to run a self-cleaning cycle before making ice for consumption. (Refer to Section 5.1 for self-cleaning instructions).
4.2 IJs maken
- Inschakelen: Druk op de aan/uit-knop op het bedieningspaneel.
- Selecteer de ijsgrootte: Use the 'S-Ice', 'M-Ice', or 'L-Ice' buttons to select your desired ice thickness (Small, Medium, Large).
- The machine will automatically detect the water mode (tap water or self-priming) and begin the ice-making process.
- The first ice-making cycle may take approximately 20 minutes as the compressor starts up. Subsequent cycles typically take 8-18 minutes depending on the selected thickness and ambient temperature.
Image: The ice maker's control panel, illustrating the options for customizing ice thickness (S: 8-10 Mins, M: 15 Mins, L: 18-20 Mins) and how to adjust the cycle time by pressing and holding the up/down buttons for 5 seconds.
4.3 Adjusting Ice-Making Time
To adjust the ice-making cycle time, press and hold the 'Up' or 'Down' arrow buttons on the control panel for 5 seconds. This allows for fine-tuning the ice thickness beyond the preset options.
4.4 IJsvol-indicator
When the ice storage bin is full, the 'Ice Full' indicator light will illuminate, and the ice maker will automatically pause operation. Remove ice from the bin to resume ice production.
Use the provided ice shovel to break up any large blocks of ice for easier storage and to prevent the 'Ice Full' sensor from being obstructed.
5. Onderhoud
5.1 Zelfreinigende functie
The ice maker features an automatic self-cleaning mode to maintain hygiene.
- In standby mode, press the 'Clean' button.
- Adjust the cleaning duration in 5-minute increments using the 'Up' and 'Down' arrow buttons.
- A full cleaning cycle typically takes about 30 minutes.

5.2 Het waterreservoir leegmaken
To empty the water tank, locate the drain plug inside the ice maker (usually near the water pump). Pull up the drain plug to allow water to flow out through the connected drain pipe.
5.3 Regelmatige reiniging
- Regularly wipe down the exterior of the ice maker with a soft, damp lap.
- Clean the interior components, including the ice bin and water reservoir, with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse thoroughly.
- Ensure all parts are dry before reassembling and operating the machine.
- Periodically check the air filter (if applicable) and clean it to maintain optimal performance.
