5.4.10 IceMaker*
The IceMaker and the water reservoir situated in the refrigerator compartment can be used to produce ice cubes or to provide chilled drinking water.
The IceMaker is in the top drawer of the freezer compartment. The drawer is marked "IceMaker".
Make certain that the following conditions are met:
-The appliance is level.
-The appliance is connected.
-The freezer compartment is switched on.
-The water tank was cleaned with water and is filled.
Filling the water tank*
WARNING
Risk of poisoning!
u The water quality has to comply with the drinking water ordi- nance of the respective country (e.g. 98/8
u The IceMaker serves exclusively for making ice cubes in household quantities and has to be operated with water suit- able for the purpose.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the IceMaker!
Liquids containing sugar, such as soft drinks, fruit juices or similar, gum up the pump and therefore lead to total pump failure and, as a consequence, to damage to the IceMaker.
u Fill the water reservoir with drinking water only! Do not use any liquids containing sugar, such as soft drinks, fruit juices or similar!
The IceMaker is supplied with water from a water tank in the refrigerator compartment (see Appliance at a glance).
Before initial operation:
u clean the water tank thoroughly with water to remove any dust etc.
u Pull the water tank forwards. u Open the front flap and fill the
tank with water.
u Place the filled water tank in the holder and slide it all the way back.
Note
u The water reservoir has to be slid all the way into the bracket provided for the purpose in the refrigerator compartment!
Switching on the IceMaker*
Fig. 12
uPull out the drawer.
uPress the On/Off button Fig. 12 (1) so that the LED Fig. 12 (2) shines.
uPush in the drawer.
Note
u The IceMaker produces ice cubes only if the drawer is fully closed.
Switching off the IceMaker*
If no ice cubes are needed, the IceMaker can be switched off independently of the freezer compartment.
When the IceMaker is switched off, the IceMaker drawer can also be used for freezing and storing food.
u Press the On/Off button for about 1 second until the LED goes out.
u Clean the IceMaker.
w This ensures that no water or ice remains in the IceMaker.
Producing ice cubes*
The production capacity depends on the freezer temperature. The lower the temperature, the more ice cubes can be produced in a specific period.
The ice cubes drop from the IceMaker into the drawer. When a certain filling level has been reached, no further ice cubes are produced. The IceMaker does not fill the drawer right up to the brim.
If large quantities of ice cubes are needed, the complete IceMaker drawer can be exchanged for the adjacent drawer. When the drawer is closed, the IceMaker automatically re- commences production.
Once the IceMaker has been switched on for the first time, it may take up to 24 hours until the first ice cubes are produced.
Note
When the appliance is used for the first time or if has not been used for a long time, the IceMaker has to be rinsed to remove any particles present.
u Therefore do not use or consume the ice cubes made in the first 24 hours.
