BEFORE USING  
Before connecting the appliance to a power supply, let unit stand upright  
overnight. This will reduce the possibility of the cooling system  
malfunctioning due to improper handling during shipping.  
Clean your unit thoroughly before putting into use.  
Use the parts diagram on page 5 to insure proper positioning of internal  
components.  
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
To reduce the risk of fire,  
electrical shock or injury when  
using your appliance, follow  
these basic precautions:  
Do not operate this or any other appliance with a damaged cord.  
Connect to properly polarized outlets only. No other appliance should be  
plugged into the same outlet. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into  
the receptacle.  
Do not run cord over carpeting or other heat insulators; do not cover  
cord. Keep cord away from traffic areas and do not submerge in water.  
We do not recommend the use of an extension cord, as it may overheat  
and become a fire risk. However, if you still elect to use an extension  
cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL Listed 3-wire grounding  
type appliance extension cord having a 3-prong grounding plug and a 3-  
slot receptacle that will plug into the appliance. The marked rating of the  
extension cord should be 115 V, 15 A  
Unplug the ice maker before cleaning it or making repairs.  
Exercise caution and use reasonable supervision when appliance is used  
near children.  
Do not clean your ice maker with flammable fluids. The fumes can  
create a fire hazard or explosion.  
Do not tip over.  
Do not operate with side or back panels removed.  
If the ice maker is brought in from outside in wintertime, give it a few  
hours to warm up to room temperature before plugging it in.  
Ice maker is intended for household use.  
For use in a controlled ambient location such that the ambient  
temperature does not exceed 90°F (32°C) and is not below 60°F (16°C).

PROCEDURES & MAINTENANCE  
GETTING STARTED  
1. Remove the exterior and interior packaging. Check that ice basket and  
ice scoop are included. If any parts are missing, please contact the  
vendor.  
2. Clean the interior with lukewarm water and a soft cloth. Take out the ice  
basket and clean it.  
3. Find a location for your ice maker that is protected from direct sunlight  
and other sources of heat (i.e., stove, furnace, radiator). Place the ice  
maker on a level surface. Maker sure that there is at least 5 inches of  
space between the back and sides of your ice maker and the wall.  
4. Allow the refrigerant to settle overnight before plugging in ice maker.  
5. The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.  
Warning: Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of  
electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an  
authorized products service center.  
CONNECTING YOUR ICE MAKER  
1. This unit should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of  
this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with  
standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electric  
shock.  
2. Plug your appliance into an exclusive, properly installed, grounded wall  
outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground)  
prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or  
grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician.  
3. This appliance requires a standard 110~120 volt, 60Hz electrical outlet  
with three-prong ground.  
CLEANING AND MAINTAINING YOUR ICE MAKER  
Before using your ice maker, it is recommended that you clean it  
thoroughly.  
1. Take out the ice basket.  
2. Clean the interior with diluted detergent, warm water and a soft cloth.  
3. The outside of the ice maker should be cleaned regularly with a mild  
detergent solution and warm water.  
4. Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.  
5. When the machine is not in use, open the water drain cap to completely  
drain the water reservoir.

OPERATING YOUR ICE MAKER  
1. Select the size of the ice cube by pressing the “HAND” button. If the  
room temperature is lower than 60°F, it is best to select the small or  
medium ice size, otherwise the ice cubes might stick together.  
2. Open the cover, remove the ice basket and pour water into tank.  
3. Keep water level below the “Fill Line.”  
4. Press “START” on the control panel to begin the ice making cycle.  
5. The ice making cycle lasts 7 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of  
the ice cubes selected. Larger cubes will take longer to produce.  
6. While the ice maker is on, verify the water level periodically. If the  
water level is too low, the ice maker will stop automatically, and the  
“Add Water” indicator will turn on.  
7. Press the “STOP” button, fill the unit with water, and then press the  
“START” button.  
8. Allow the refrigerant inside the compressor at least 3 minutes to settle  
before restarting.  
9. The ice maker automatically stops working when the ice basket is full.  
10. If you fill the unit with water, but the ice maker still does not function,  
empty some water out through the drain, then recap the drain. The  
machine should start automatically.  
11. Change the water in the water reservoir periodically to ensure  
cleanliness and hygiene.  
12. It is best to use tap water or bottled drinking water in the ice maker.  
Distilled water may not work. If you do use distilled water and the ice  
maker will not function, try adding a little salt into the water (a small  
amount of salt added to the water should be imperceptible).  
13. If the ice does not taste good, or the unit develops a musty odor, try  
running a few cycles of the ice maker with a mild white vinegar  
solution. Then empty out all the vinegar solution and run a few cycles  
with plain water to eliminate all traces of the vinegar.
