-
my ice is coming out really soft and mushy, it just clumps together in the basket
The "mushy" or "slushy" ice phenomenon in the EUHOMY 44Lbs Nugget Ice Maker occurs when the refrigeration cycle fails to drop the temperature of the evaporator…
-
the self-clean light is blinking and now it won't start a normal ice cycle, how do i stop it?
This issue occurs because the EUHOMY Nugget Ice Maker has entered a mandatory maintenance state. The blinking "Self-Clean" indicator is not just a suggestion; …
