Then press the On/Off button on the control panel to start the ice making cycle. The On/Off
status symbol will remain illuminated; the number on the left in the LCD display window
shows the current ambient temperature, the number on the right shows the current ice
making setting, and the ice cube symbol rotates. When the number on the left flashes, the
number indicates the countdown time to complete an ice making cycle.
2. Each ice making cycle will last about 11 to 20 minutes, depending on ambient temperature
and water temperature. When making ice for the first time, the duration of ice making will
be slightly longer depending on the initial water temperature.
3. After the ice making process is over, switch to the ice harvesting process. During the ice
extraction process, the ice cube symbol will flash and rotate. At the same time, the arrow on
the water addition symbol starts to flash, and the water will flow into the water tank again
until the float of the water level switch rises to the highest position. Then, the water stops
flowing, and the entire manual water addition symbol disappears.
After the ice harvest is completed, the “full ice” detection plate will rotate down once, and
then return to the original position to enter the next ice making process.
If the full ice detection plate is rotated and cannot be returned to its original position due
to being squeezed by the ice cubes, it means that the ice cubes in the ice storage bin are full and
the ice making will be stopped automatically.
4. When the "ice full" symbol display turns on, the unit stops running. If you remove the ice
cubes, the device will restart making ice cubes after three minutes.
5. During the ice making process, press the "+" or "-" button to adjust the length of each ice
making cycle to change the thickness of the ice cubes. Press the "+" or "-" button, the
number on the right will flash, the default setting is zero, and each time the "+" or "-" button

are based on normal conditions. If you have pets, or the device is used outdoors, or have other
special considerations, you may want to shorten the interval.
What not to do
Don't put anything that isn't ice in the ice bin: Not only are things like wine and beer bottles
unsanitary, but labels can slip off and clog drains.
External cleaning
Doors and cabinets can be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution, such as 28
grams of dishwashing liquid mixed with 7.5 liters of warm water. Do not use solvent-based or
abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to
prevent water spots.
Stainless steel models will discolor when exposed to chlorine and should be cleaned. Clean
stainless-steel models with mild detergent and warm water and a damp cloth. Never use abrasive
cleaners.
Note: Stainless steel models exposed to chlorine and moisture, such as in areas such as spas or
swimming pools, may have some stainless steel discoloration. Chlorine discoloration is normal.
Internal cleaning
For ice bins
Ice storage bins should be sterilized occasionally. Before using the ice machine for the first time,
background
20
clean the ice box and use it again after an extended period of inactivity. Typically, it is convenient
to sanitize the storage bin after the ice making system has been cleaned and the storage bin is
empty.
1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Open the door and with a clean cloth, wipe the inside with a sanitizing solution made from
28g of household bleach or chlorine and 7.5L of hot water (95
°
