As water is drawn from the integral water tank the level will drop and eventually the Low Water Level Warning light will
illuminate red. The water tank should be topped up by pouring water in through the front centre of the ice Cube Basket.
Only pour in suf
fi
cient water to come to a level approximately 1 centimetre below the bottom of the Ice Cube Basket.
If more water is added it is possible that the base of the basket could be submerged resulting in rapid melting of ice
cubes.
If the water tank is not topped up the ice cubes will get shorter and shorter, eventually ending up button shaped, and
the appliance will go into sleep mode but still with green cube size and low water level warning light both illuminated.
Adding water will turn the low water level warning off and the appliance will start up automatically, although it can take
several minutes to re-start.
The appliance can be stopped at any time by pressing the OFF button on the Function Display.
ONCE THE OFF BUTTON IS PUSHED THE APPLIANCE SHOULD ONLY BE RESTARTED AFTER 5 MINUTES.
AFTER USE
When the appliance is not to be used for some time, for example for periods exceeding 48 hours, it is recommended that
it be disconnected from the electricity supply and that any remaining ice cubes and water be removed. The water tank
can be emptied by unscrewing the drain plug (the smaller of the two white screw caps) from the rear right hand bottom
comer of the unit. The unit should be moved to the edge of the worktop to allow access to the drain plug and to facilitate
emptying. Care should be taken in moving the unit to the edge in order to avoid it falling to the
fl
oor. Any remaining water
or dampness can be removed with a paper towel.
It is recommended that the appliance is cleaned on a regular basis, perhaps once every month or more frequently in
areas where chalky/mineral deposits can be a problem.
Two cleaning solutions may be used. One is one part vinegar to 10 parts water, the other is 1 part
bicarbonate of soda to between 15 and 20 parts water. In both cases the appliance should be allowed
to complete one ice making cycle then disconnected from the mains supply and left to stand for 6 hours
before being thoroughly rinsed with fresh water and dried as detailed in the previous paragraph. Any residual
vinegar or bicarbonate solution may cause the next ice cubes to be soft or slushy. If this happens the unit should be rinsed
again with fresh water. If bicarbonate of soda is used it is important to ensure it is fully dissolved as the unit contains tubes,
valves and pumps which could be blocked by undissolved material.
Solvents, detergents and abrasives must not be used for cleaning. The appliance exterior can be cleaned with a damp
cloth and then polished with a soft, dry lint-free cloth.
