Product Information

Full details

The Spector Countertop Ice Cube Maker is an ideal solution for home kitchens, offices, and campers who require a consistent supply of fresh ice without the need for a plumbed connection. This compact appliance produces bullet-shaped ice in as little as 6 to 12 minutes, making it perfect for social gatherings or daily beverage needs. While its 12kg daily capacity is impressive for its size, users should note that it requires manual refilling of the 1.3L water tank and is not intended for long-term ice storage, as it does not freeze the ice to a solid block.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

How many cubes does it make per cycle?

It typically produces 9 bullet-shaped cubes per cycle, depending on the ambient temperature and water temperature.

Can I use juice or milk in the machine?

No, you must only use clean, fresh water. Using other liquids can damage the internal mechanism and void the warranty.

Does it have a timer?

No, the Spector Ice Maker operates on a manual start/stop basis when plugged in.

How do I know when the ice basket is full?

The machine features an automated sensor that will stop ice production once the collection basket is full.

Is the unit energy efficient?

With a 100W motor, it is designed for efficient, short-duration use, making it quite economical for intermittent ice production.

What is the best way to keep the ice from melting?

Since the basket is not refrigerated, the best practice is to transfer finished ice to a freezer container immediately if you don't plan to use it right away.

Troubleshooting

The ice cubes are thin or not fully formed

The water temperature might be too warm. Use colder water or allow the machine to complete a few more cycles to stabilize the internal temperature.

Machine is running but not producing ice

Ensure the water tank is filled to the correct level and that the water pump is not obstructed by debris.

Unit makes an unusual noise during operation

Check that the machine is on a perfectly level surface. If it wobbles, it can cause vibration noise.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the device is straightforward: simply place the unit on a stable countertop, plug it into a standard mains outlet, and fill the reservoir to the 'MAX' fill line with fresh, cold water. Before the first use, run the self-cleaning cycle once to ensure the internal components are rinsed. To clean, use the automatic function with a mixture of water and a mild vinegar solution if mineral buildup occurs. Always ensure the machine is completely dry before storing it for long periods, especially if taking it on camping trips. Keep the exterior clean with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners that might scratch the black finish.
