Getting Your Ice Maker Ready

Unpacking: Carefully unpack the ice maker and
ensure that no items are causing damage to its surface.

Know Your Ice Maker: Familiarize yourself with
the different components of the Gevi Nugget Ice Maker. These
include the ice basket, ice scoop, control panel, front lid, drain
hoses, exhaust fan, water inlet, air vent, power cord, water
reservoir, water screen, magnetic switch, infrared sensor, top
water reservoir, and UV light.

Control Panel

The control panel of the Gevi Nugget Ice Maker features various
buttons and indicators:

  • On/Off: Press this button to turn the ice
    maker on or off.
  • Clean: Press and hold this button for 3
    seconds to enter the self-cleaning program.
  • Indicators: The indicators on the control
    panel serve different purposes. They flash when the ice maker is
    plugged in, glow solidly during ice making, glow white when the ice
    maker is running the self-cleaning program, glow white when the
    water supply is insufficient, and glow white when the ice basket is
    full.

FAQs

  1. Water Residue Found: It is normal to find
    water residue in the water reservoir or drain hoses as every Gevi
    Ice Maker undergoes a running test before leaving the plant. To
    ensure cleanliness, run the self-cleaning program twice with fresh
    water before the first use.
  2. Time of Ice Making: The time taken to make ice
    is influenced by ambient and water temperature. The first ice will
    be produced within 15 to 30 minutes. On average, it takes 3-4 hours
    to fill the ice basket.
  3. Water Flowing During Ice Making: When the ice
    maker starts making ice or refilling water, water flows through the
    ice chute into the water reservoir to cool it. Water will stop
    flowing once its temperature is low enough to form ice.

HOW TO USE

Nugget Ice Maker

3.Heat Dissipation The ice maker generates some heat while it is working, so a 6-inch clearance on all sides should be kept for proper ventilation. Remember to keep the environment dry and stay away from heat sources such as ovens, heaters and corrosive gases.
Figure 5
4.Magnetic Switch Magnetic switch in the lid works for the below two scenarios.
Scenario 1. The ice maker stops ice making when the indicator is on.When you open and close the lid, the magnetic switch triggers ice making. If the ice full infrared sensor (refer to page 3) detects that the ice is not full, the machine continues ice making. Otherwise, the indicator of lights up again. This is designed to save energy in case the ice melts and the machine restarts making ice constantly but no one is around.
Scenario 2. The ice maker stops ice making when the water is not enough , it will not continue to make ice until there’s enough water. When you open and close the lid, the magnetic switch triggers water level detection. If there’s enough water for ice making, the machine will resume ice making. Otherwise, the indicator of lights up again.

5.Turn Off the Ice Maker Short press “On/Off” button to turn off the ice maker. The machine will continue to work for an extra 30-60s to remove the remaining ice from internal components, and it will automatically stop working when the process is completed. The indicator keeps flashing unless the ice maker is unplugged. Note: When unplugging the ice maker, empty the ice basket to avoid overflow of water from melted ice.
