The icemaker should be placed where the ambient temperature is between 61°F and 90°F (16°C to
32°C). If the ambient temperature is above or below this range, the performance of the appliance may be
affected. For example, placing the appliance in extremely cold or hot conditions may cause interior
temperatures to fluctuate.
ON/OFF Power
To turn the appliance on or off, press the ON/OFF button.
Setting the Temperature Control
●
Connect the power cord to a properly grounded outlet. In the event of a power interruption, all

“Fast Freeze” Function
If you press and hold the °C/°F button for 3 seconds, the appliance will enter the “Fast Freeze” mode. In
this mode, press the
and
buttons to set the fast freezing time. The setting time range is 1 to 10
hours, and the default setting time is 3 hours. If you set the fast freezing time longer than 4 hours, the
appliance will defrost itself at the end of the “Fast Freeze” cycle. To stop the “Fast Freeze” function,
again press the °C/°F button and hold it for at least 3 seconds.
Defrosting
The icemaker’s frost-free feature eliminates the need for manual defrosting. Defrosting takes place
approximately every 14 hours (except when in the “Fast Freeze” mode); the defrost cycle lasts about 40
minutes. Melt water from the defrosting collects in a drip tray where it is evaporated. During the process
of defrosting, the temperature display may be higher than the set temperature.
You can force the appliance into defrost mode at any time by pressing and holding the
button
for 3
seconds
