Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I connect the Extralink Ice Maker to the 'Smart Life' App?
Download the 'Smart Life' App from the App Store or Google Play Store and create an account. Press and hold the power button on the ice maker for about 5 seconds until the WiFi indicator flashes rapidly. In the app, select 'Add Device' and follow the instructions to connect the device to your 2.4 GHz WiFi Network.
Can I start ice production when I'm not at home?
Yes, this is one of the main advantages. As long as the ice maker is connected to the WiFi and switched on, and has water in its tank, you can start, stop, or set schedules for ice production from anywhere in the world using the 'Smart Life' App.
How does the self-cleaning function work and how often should I use it?
Fill the water tank with a mixture of water and a little vinegar or a special ice maker cleaner, then start the cleaning cycle using the button on the device or via the app. It is recommended to perform this process every 2-3 weeks to prevent limescale buildup and bacterial growth.
Why are the ice cubes sometimes cloudy and not crystal clear?
Cloudy ice cubes are caused by dissolved gases and minerals in the water, which become trapped during rapid freezing. This is normal for most household ice makers. For clearer ice, using distilled or pre-boiled water can help.
What happens when the ice container is full?
An infrared sensor detects when the container is full and automatically stops ice production. The 'ICE FULL' indicator lights up, and you receive a notification in the app. Once you remove ice, the device automatically resumes production.
Is the device compatible with Amazon Alexa or Google Home?
Yes. After setting up the ice maker in the 'Smart Life' App, you can link your account in the Alexa or Google Home app. Afterwards, you can control the device with voice commands such as 'Alexa, turn on the ice maker'.
