5. Replace Basket: Place the ice basket back into its position and close the lid.

2. Seleziona la dimensione del ghiaccio: The default ice size is usually large. To switch between small and large ice cubes, press the "SELECT" button. The corresponding indicator light will show your selection. Small ice cubes are ideal for smoothies, while large cubes are better for chilling drinks.
3. Produzione di ghiaccio: The ice maker will begin the ice-making cycle automatically. The first batch of 9 bullet ice cubes typically takes 6-8 minutes. Subsequent batches may be faster. Note that the first 5-10 batches might not be as fast or perfect as the machine stabilizes.
4. Allerta ghiaccio pieno: When the ice basket is full, the "ICE FULL" indicator light will brighten, and the machine will pause operation. Remove ice cubes from the basket and use them or transfer them to a freezer for storage. The machine will resume ice making once space is cleared.
5. Add Water Alert: If the water level in the tank is too low, the "ADD WATER" indicator light will illuminate, and the machine will stop. Refill the water tank as per step 4 in the Setup section.
