Cleaning & Care

1. Clean the inner liner, water box, ice shovel and evaporator frequently. When cleaning, unplug the unit and remove the ice cubes. Use a diluted solution of water and vinegar to clean the inner and outer surface of the ice maker. Do not spray the ice maker with chemicals or diluted agents such as acids, gasoline or oil. Rinse thoroughly before starting.
2. Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure clear from obstruction. Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
3. If the machine is reused after a long time, the water pump may not pump sufficient water due to the air inside, the “Add Water” indicator light will turn on in this case. To correct this, press the START button again and then the machine will work normally.
4. To ensure the cleanliness of the ice cubes, water in the water reservoir should be replaced every 24 hours.
5. If the compressor stops for any reason such as water shortage, too much ice, power off, etc. Do not start the system right away, wait for 3 minutes and then re-start the ice maker.
