COOKING FORWARD™
Welcome!
Whether this is your first Iceman™ appliance or you’re already part of our family, we’re
happy to be cooking with you. With The Pebble Nugget Ice Machine, you can enjoy
refreshing, ice-cold beverages all day long—the unit quickly makes a full batch of ice
in less than 20 minutes. Its compact size is perfect for portability or the countertop,
plus it can hook directly to your water line so you can focus less on refilling and more
on entertaining. Restaurant-style, nugget-shaped ice cubes keep food and beverages
colder for longer, and the included ice scoop allows for easy serving. Whether you
use it daily or for special occasions, you’ll enjoy its simple operation and self-cleaning
function.
Because we want to make sure you get the best scoop of ice using the Ice Maker, we
ask that you first read our directions, safety instructions, and warranty information.
From our kitchen to yours,
The Iceman™ Team

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE FIRST USE
For best results, follow these steps before using your ice maker for the first time.
1. Remove all packaging materials, such as plastic bags and foam inserts. Check to
ensure that all parts and accessories are included before throwing out packaging.
2. Read and remove any stickers on the ice maker except for the rating label, which
should remain on the unit.
3. Clean the unit’s exterior, reservoir, ice basket, and scoop, following the directions in
Cleaning and Maintenance on p. 16.
4. Place the ice maker on a level surface away from direct sunlight and other heat
sources. Keep at least 6 inches of clearance on all sides of the unit to ensure
proper ventilation. NOTE: If using the unit outdoors, be cautious of weather and
extreme temperatures (ideal ambient temperature is between about 50°F/10°C and
90°F/32°C), as these can aect the ice-making process or damage the unit.
5. IMPORTANT: Wait 2 hours for the refrigerant fluid to settle before plugging the unit
in for the first time.
6. Before making ice for the first time, prime the ice maker by running the self-cleaning
function (see Cleaning and Maintenance on p. 17).
7. OPTIONAL: The included water inlet tube allows the ice maker to be connected to
your water line for convenient, automatic refilling. It attaches via the water inlet tube
port on the back of the unit. CAUTION: To avoid damage to your plumbing, contact
a professional plumber to connect the unit with the water inlet tube.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO USE THE ICE MAKER
The ice maker makes a full batch of restaurant-style ice in less than 20 minutes and,
with the help of a professional plumber, can be connected directly to your water line
for a convenient, eortless ice-making experience.
1. Set the ice maker on a hard, level surface away from any sources of heat. Leave at
least 6 inches of clearance on all sides of the unit for proper ventilation. NOTE: If the
ice maker has been moved since its last use, let it sit for 30 minutes before plugging
it in, to allow the refrigerant fluid to settle.
2. Make sure the drain tubes are firmly in place in a closed position.
3. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet. The ICE indicator light will blink as
the ice maker enters standby mode, signaling that the unit is plugged in but not yet
powered on.
4. Manually fill the water reservoir: Open the front cover and gently lift and remove
the ice basket. Fill the water reservoir with filtered or bottled water up to but not
exceeding the MAX fill line. To ensure sanitation, change the water in the reservoir at
least once a day. CAUTION: Only use cold to room temperature water. Hot water can
damage the ice maker.
5. Replace the ice basket and close the front cover.
6. Alternatively, for an automatic, continuous flow of water, the water inlet tube can
be used to connect the ice maker directly to your water line. CAUTION: To avoid
damage to your plumbing, contact a professional plumber to connect the unit with
the inlet tube.
7. Press the START button. The ICE indicator light will illuminate, indicating that the ice
maker is running and no longer in standby mode.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
8. The ice maker will run continuously until it is turned o or the basket is full. It will
begin producing ice in about 20 minutes and should produce a full basket in as little
as 3 hours (when filled to the MAX line), depending on ambient temperature and
water temperature.
9. Use the ice scoop to remove and serve ice. The ice maker will not keep ice cold for
extended periods of time. Store extra ice in the freezer for later use, if desired, or
allow the unused ice to melt. Melted ice will drip back into the water reservoir and be
reused for the next ice-making cycle.
10. When the ice basket is completely full, the FULL indicator light will illuminate, and
the ice-making process will stop. Once enough ice is removed, the ice-making cycle
will restart automatically. NOTE: You do not need to wait for the ice basket to be
completely full before removing ice. Ice can be used after each cycle, if desired.
11. If there is not enough water to complete an ice-making cycle, the REFILL indicator
light will blink, and ice-making will stop. Refill the reservoir, close the front cover, and
ice-making will resume automatically.
12. If using the ice maker daily, conserve energy by unplugging it or switching it to
standby mode overnight and when not needed for immediate use.

TROUBLESHOOTING/FAQS
Why is the REFILL indicator light flashing when the water reservoir is full?
The water screen at the bottom of the water reservoir is blocked. Check to ensure no
objects are obstructing the water reservoir and follow the instructions for the self-cleaning
feature on p. 17 to fix.
Why is the FULL indicator light on when the ice basket is not full?
The small infrared sensors located on the sides of the ice tray are not working properly.
Wipe away any foreign substances that may be blocking or covering them and restart the
ice maker by unplugging it or pressing START.
15
TROUBLESHOOTING/FAQS
If a problem or issue persists after following the instructions on Troubleshooting pages,
contact Chefman
®
Customer Support at [email protected] for further assistance.
Why is the unit producing low-quality (misshapen or broken) ice?
If the ice maker continues to produce broken ice for over two hours, there may be poor heat
distribution. Ensure there are at least 6 inches of empty space on all sides of the ice maker
for proper ventilation. Alternatively, the ambient or water temperature is too high. Move the
ice maker to a cooler area and refill the water reservoir with cold water.
Why does the ice have a strange taste?
The water is not fresh, or the unit needs to be cleaned. Refill the reservoir with clean
drinking water regularly (at least once per day). If the issue persists, follow the instructions
in Cleaning and Maintenance on pp. 16–17, and use the self-cleaning feature to sanitize the
ice maker’s interior parts.
16
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
To keep your ice tasting fresh and your ice maker in prime condition, we recommend
changing the water in the reservoir once a day and cleaning your ice maker at least
once per week.
1. Make sure the ice maker is unplugged and at room temperature.
2. Place the unit over a proper drainage area and remove the ice basket. Use the drain
tubes to empty water from the reservoir by gently lifting them up and away from the
unit (see drawing below). Remove the drain tube cap and angle the tubes downward so
the water flows out.
3. Wipe down the interior of the ice maker with a cloth or paper towel soaked in a mixture
of water and vinegar. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Replace the drain tube cap
and return the drain tubes to the unit by pressing inward and down.
4. Gently wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth or paper towel, using a mild
dishwashing soap if necessary. Wash the removable ice basket and scoop with a sponge
and warm, soapy water, and dry completely. The ice maker and its accessories are not
dishwasher safe. CAUTION: Never immerse the ice maker, its base, cord, or plug in water
or any other liquid, and do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
17
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
HOW TO USE THE SELF-CLEANING FEATURE
The ice maker is equipped with a self-cleaning feature to ensure easy and complete
sanitation and should be used at least once per week.
1. To activate the self-cleaning function, the ice maker must be in standby mode.
Enter standby mode by doing one of the following: 1) If the ice maker is unplugged,
plug in the unit; the ICE indicator light will blink indicating it’s in standby mode;
2) If the ice maker is plugged in and on (or in the middle of) an ice-making cycle,
press STOP, and the ICE indicator light will change from solid to blinking. This
means the ice maker has entered standby mode.
2. If necessary, remove any ice and empty the water reservoir using the drain tubes.
Replace the drain tubes and ensure they are closed properly.
3. Fill the water reservoir with clean water.
4. Press the HOLD TO CLEAN button for about three seconds until the CLEAN
indicator light illuminates. The cleaning function takes approximately 8 minutes,
after which the unit will return to standby mode.
5. Empty the water reservoir using the drain tubes. Follow the instructions to begin
making ice or dry completely for storage.
5. To clean the ice maker’s internal parts, follow the instructions below to activate the self-
cleaning feature when needed.
6. Always empty the water reservoir (see drawing on p. 16) and dry completely for storage
if the ice maker will not be used for an extended period of time. This will prevent mold
and mildew from forming.
