OPERATION PANEL AND DISPLAY AREA

• Remove the cover of the water reservoir and pour potable water into water reservoir. And be sure to keep water level below the max. level with FULL mark displayed in following picture. Then move back the cover at once to avoid foreign matter enter.
  

Note:

• Do not pour the water into the intemal water tank located underneath the ice basket. This tank is not big enough and will affect the ice making performance.
• When you plug the unit, the power symbol <> will fash. Press the <ON/OFF> button, the unit will start making ice cube, ice making symbol <> will keep runnig. The left up corner of display area wil show the ambient temp, i. e: 80 ℉ means the ambient temp is 80 ℉. After several minutes, this area will show flash number, the ice making will countdown, i. e: 10M means the ice making will finish 10 minutes later.
• When ice maker harvest, symbol <> flash, the water will flow from top water reservoir to bottom water tank through solenoid valve, the symbol <> will be on, when the water in the bottom water tank is full, the symbol <> will be off, then the next ice making cycle start agan. When there is no water in the water reservoir, the symbol <> will keep on. Turn off the unit and fill water again, then restart the unit to make ice cube. Or fill water directly and wait 20 minutes, the unit will restart.
• Remark: The ice making cycle lasts about 13 to 25 minutes, depending on the ambient temperature. And for the first time, according to the initial water temperature, ice-making last time will be a little longer. In the extreme hot room temperature, ice-making time may vary a lot, but it will not exceed 35 minutes.

Tips & Maintenance

CLEANING AND MAINTAINING YOUR ICE MAKER

Before using your ice maker, it is strongly recommended to clean it thoroughly.

• Take out the ice basket.
• Clean the interior with diluted detergent, warm water and a soft cloth
• Then use the water to rinse the inside parts, and drain out the water from the draining port by unplugging the drain cap on the back
• The outside of the ice maker should be cleaned regularly with a mild detergent solution and warm water.
• Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.
• When the machine is not in use for a long time, open the water drain cap to drain water completely out from the water reservoir.
• After using your ice maker for a long time, we also suggest you should clean your unit. Especially to the water separator pipe and the water filters, you must clean them periodically.
• If the water separator pipe is blocked and there is no water flowing down when you listen the compressor and the water pump inside are still working, please turn off the unit first and disassemble this pipe down, and clean it. Clean the each hole on the pipe wall displayed in following picture. After cleaning, install back the water separator pipe and be sure the right terminal of the pipe connect to the silicone pipe well and as original.
  
• For both of the water tank and the big water reservoir, clean them with diluted detergent, warm water and a soft cloth. Then use the water to rinse the inside, and drain out the water from the draining port by unplugging the drain cap on the back. It will help you keep the unit and ice-cube hygienicly, and also make the unit work normally.
• When cleaning, if find that the ice cube left on the evaporator and can not be taken out easily, you can turn on the unit to let the unit enter the ice making process, then press "ON/OFF" button for more than 5 seconds to let the unit start ice harvest process to melt the ice cube. It will help you remove the hard ice cube.
• How to drain out the water from the internal tank and big water reservoir completely. Because the water in the big water reservoir is stop to drain port by the water valve, if you want to drain away all the water, please plug on the unit and but dont start the unit, then remove the drain port cap at the back. Wait some minutes, all of the water will flow out.

Q&A

1. How often do I need to clean my ice maker?
   Depending on your usage habits, if you use it frequently, it is recommended that you clean it at least once a week. Failure to clean the machine will cause scale accumulation, which will eventually block the pump and cause the product to fail to work.
2. How should I clean the machine?
   It is recommended to use lemon water or weak acid vinegar for cleaning. Drain immediately after cleaning, and then clean it with pure water.
   It is recommended to drain water at least once every three days. Draining can not only ensure that the hardness of the water is not too high, but also ensure that impurities can be discharged well, and it is not easy to produce scale in the water tank.
3. Why is my ice cube cloudy?
   It means that your water quality is turbid. It is recommended to use drinking water and distilled water. If your water quality problem is serious, it is recommended that you install a water filter kit.
4. Can I put milk and juice into the water tank to make ice cubes?
   It is recommended that you do not do that. Our research has found that the high concentration of milk and beverages can easily block the pump and reduce the life of the pump. At the same time, the protein in milk is prone to calcification, which chemically reacts with the PU water pipe inside the machine, which easily breaks it, making the product unable to continue working.
5. Why does my ice cube melt easily?
   Because the ice maker is not a refrigerator, it does not have a heat preservation function. The high ambient temperature in summer will accelerate the melting of ice cubes. You can close the lid of the machine to keep the internal temperature. Some customers also put electric fans on the side of the machine to blow away the hot air around, thus solving the problem, you can try. However, if you are not using ice cubes for a long time, we recommend removing them from the ice basket and storing them in the refrigerator.
6. Why is my ice so thick and difficult to fall from the ice tray? What should I do?
   It may be that your ice making time is set too long, or it may be that the temperature of your environment is low. You can reduce the time to 0 or -6 by pressing the minus key on the touch panel.
7. Why does the ice cube I made have a plastic smell?
   The ice cube itself has no taste. If you feel there is a plastic smell, try to clean the inside of the machine with lemon water, then run a few cycles, and finally rinse with distilled water.
8. Why is there noise in the operation of my machine?
   There is a faint sound when the machine is running. Closing the lid can reduce the noise. If the water pump makes noise during use, it is recommended to turn off the machine first, and then turn on the machine after cleaning the filter in the water tank to observe whether the noise disappears.
9. Why is water leaking from my machine?
   It may be that the PUA tube inside the machine fell off during transportation. You can remove the back cover of the machine and connect it by yourself. If you don't know how to operate, please contact the Euhomy team. We will give you a professional video to help you solve the problem.
10. Why is there water flowing but not making ice?
    If you make sure that the ambient temperature is not abnormal, then the refrigerant of the machine has leaked. Please provide a video or picture and send it to us, and the Euhomy team will help you.
