drain all water left in the water reservoir.
 NOTE: This ice maker produces 12 ice cubes every cycle of 10 to 15 minutes approximately depend-
ing on the size of cube is selected. When the ambient temperature is lower than 59ºF, the small ice cube size
is recommended to avoid ice cubes clumping together. For best performance, water temperature should be
between 55ºF and 85ºF and ambient temperature between 65ºF and 77ºF.

water will drip to the water reservoir and reused.
