Getting Started

Unpack your ice maker and remove all packaging materials.
Place the ice maker on a stable, level surface with adequate space around the sides and back for ventilation.
Wash the ice basket and water reservoir with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry.

Fill the water reservoir with 1.1 liters of water, ensuring not to exceed the max fill line.
Press the power button to turn on the ice maker. The unit will begin the ice-making process.
Use the transparent lid to monitor the ice making process. Ice will be ready in about 5 minutes.
When the ice basket is full or water is insufficient, the indicator light will turn on. Add water or remove ice as needed.
To access the ice, simply open the lid and use the provided scoop to remove the ice.

Troubleshooting Tips

Ice Maker Not Working: Ensure the unit is plugged in and the power button is pressed. Check if the ice basket is full or if there is sufficient water in the reservoir.

Noisy Operation: Some noise is normal during ice making. If the noise is excessive, turn off the unit, unplug for a few minutes, then restart.

Ice Clumping: If ice stored in the freezer has turned into a block, ensure it is dry before freezing. Wet ice will clump together.
