BEFORE FIRST USE
• Before first use, remove the appliance and its accessories form the
packaging and discard all promotional labels and tags. Check that
neither the appliance nor any of its components is damaged.
• Wipe the outer surface of the ice maker with asoft sponge slightly
moistened in warm water. Wipe dry with aclean cloth.
• Open the lid andremove the ice basket andscoop. Wipe the inner
space with asoft sponge dipped inwarm water withalittle vinegar.
Wipe again with asoft sponge dipped inclean warm water and wipe
dry with aclean cloth.
• Wash the ice basket and scoop in warm water with alittle dishwashing
liquid. Rinse and wipe dry.
• Insert the ice basket back into the inside area of the ice maker.
Warning:
If the ice maker is tilted or tipped over during transport,
place it on afirm, level surface and let it stand for
about 2 hours. During this time, the refrigerant flows
back into the cooling circuit. If you switch on the ice
maker immediately, it may be irreversibly damaged.
There is arisk of fire or explosion.
However, for safety reasons, we recommend leaving
the ice maker standing for about 2 hours before
plugging it into the mains socket and turning it on,
even if it has not been tilted or tipped over during
transport.
If you move the ice maker, let it stand for about
30minutes.
Placement of the Ice Maker
Place the ice maker on aclean, level and firm surface well away from the
mains socket.
Make sure that there is sufficient free space around the ice maker, at least
20cm on each side.
Ensure that the air supply is not blocked by afixed obstacle, hinge, etc.
Damage to the appliance might occur if ventilation is insufficient.
Do not use the ice maker in avery cold room (below 5°C).
Note:
Ambient temperature can affect the rate of ice formation.
The higher the ambient (room) temperature, the longer the
ice formation.

OPERATION
Using the Ice Maker
• Before switching on the ice maker, make sure that the drain valve
andplug are properly secured in thebody of the ice maker.
• Open the lid and remove the ice basket.
• Fill the tank with clean cold water up to the MAX mark. Put the basket
back in and close the lid.
• Plug the power cord into the mains socket.
• The SMALL indicator will start flashing green. Long press the button
and the SMALL andLARGE indicators will light up alternately.
• To prepare small ice cubes, press the button when the SMALL
indicator is lit. To prepare large ice cubes, press the button when the
LARGE indicator is lit. The difference between Small and Large is the
thickness of the cubes. This affects the speed of their formation.
• The indicator of the selected ice cube size will light up and the ice
maker will start.
• Water will be pumped through the filling hole into the ice tray. The
cooling element is designed so that ice will form around the ice
moulds that are immersed in water. The ice formation process can
take 7–15 minutes depending on the temperature in theroom, the
initial water temperature as well asthe size selection.
• Once the ice is formed, the ice tray tilts backwards, the ice falls off the
moulds and the moving arm moves the ice cubes over the edge into
the ice basket. This movement brings the ice tray back to its starting
position and the excess water flows into the water tank. After that,
anew ice formation process will start.
• Once enough ice has been made, press and hold the button for 3
seconds until the SMALL indicator flashes to stop making ice. The ice
maker will switch to the standby mode. Then, unplug the power cord
from the mains socket. Remove the ice cubes from the basket and
store them in afreezer.
• Open the lid and allow the ice maker to warm up to room temperature
before cleaning.

Note:
Dependingon the room temperature, the ice in the ice
maker will last up to 18 hours. However, we recommend
moving it to the freezer as soon as the preparation is
complete. Store the ice only in thefreezer.
Warning:
Never use hot or warm water to prepare ice.
Warning:
During use, the outer surface of the machine around
the compressor may heat up. Take extra care when
coming into contact with heated surfaces.
Note:
During the first three cycles of ice production, it may
happen that the cubes will not be regular andwill be small.
This is anormal phenomenon that will disappear with
further production.
Note:
The compressor starts approximately 3 minutes after the
machine has been interrupted, e.g. the water in the tank has
run out. This is anormal phenomenon that does not affect
the functionality of the appliance.
Note:
As aresult of rapid freezing, the ice cubes can become
dull. This is air trapped in the water. This does not affect the
quality or taste of the ice.
Full Ice Basket
As soon as the ice basket is full, the ICE FULL indicator will light up on
the control panel and the ice formation process will be automatically
interrupted. Open the lid and carefully remove the ice from the basket with
ascoop. To resume theprocess automatically, close the lid. Transfer the
ice to afreezer immediately.
Refilling the Water Tank
If the ADD WATER indicator lights up on the control panel, it is necessary
to refill the water tank. The ice formation process will stop automatically.
Remove the ice basket andrefill with clean cold water. Put the basket
back andpress the button to resume the ice formation process.

the appliance, power cable, or plug into water or any
other liquid.
Draining water
Before draining the water, make sure the machine is switched off and the
mains plug is disconnected from the mains socket.
Slide the ice maker to the edge of the worktop so that the drain valve can
be released to easily drain the water from the tank.
Place acontainer under the drain valve into which the water will flow.
Release the valve andwait for all water to drain from the tank. Then
replace it firmly.
Note:
Empty the water tank after each use. Do not allow water to
remain init for more than 2 days.
Cleaning the Ice Maker
Remove the ice basket. Wash the ice basket and scoop in warm water
with alittle dishwashing liquid. Rinse and wipe dry.
Wipe the inside of the ice maker with asoft sponge dipped inwarm water
withalittle vinegar. Wipe again with asoft sponge dipped inclean warm
water and wipe dry with aclean cloth.
Remove the filter and clean it with asoft brush – see Figure C. Wipe the
area under the filter and the filling hole.
Leave the lid open to allow the inside of the appliance to dry sufficiently.
Note:
Avoid contact with the cooling element when cleaning.
Cleaning Function
• The ice maker is equipped with acleaning function to help facilitate
cleaning of the machine.
• Pour water into the water tank up to the MAX line andswitch on the
ice maker.
• Hold down the button for about 2 seconds. The cleaning function
will turn on andall four indicators will gradually flash.
• After starting the cleaning process, the machine first melts all the ice.
The water is then pumped into the inner circuit, the inner circuit is
flushed and the water is drained.
• The machine performs atotal of 5 cleaning cycles, where one cycle
usually lasts 50 seconds.
Warning:
Pour only clean water into the tank. Do not use any
cleaning agents, chemicals, etc.
• If you have not used the ice maker for along time, run the cleaning
function before making ice.
• Allow the ice maker to complete the cleaning function. As soon as the
SMALL indicator flashes, the cleaning function is completed.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If apower outage occurs or you press the button during the ice production cycle, small ice crystals may form, which may get caught on the moving
arm and cause it to block. If this occurs, turn off the ice maker, gently push the arm backwards andremove the ice crystals.
If the moving arm cannot move the ice into the basket, check that the machine is located on an even surface. If it is not, move the machine to aflat
surface.
Problem Possible Cause Solution
The compressor is unusually noisy. The mains voltage is lower than recommended. Stop using the machine until the mains voltage
is restored.

awhile.
The ice maker won't turn on. The power cord plug is incorrectly inserted in
the mains socket.
Plug the power plug into the mains socket.
The ice cubes are too big andstick together. The ice cubes from the previous preparation
were left on the moulds.
Remove the ice fromthe moulds before further
preparation.
Ice cubes do not form evenwhen the ice maker
is running.
No refrigerant. Contact an authorised service centre.
The compressor is damaged.
The motor fan is damaged.
All indicators are blinking simultaneously. The ice basket is blocked by ice cubes. Remove the ice cubes with ascoop. Press
the button to resume the operation of the
machine.
The drive unit is blocked, misses or is damaged. Contact an authorised service centre.
