Water filter
The water filter improves the taste and smell of ice cubes by removing chlorine and other substances from the incoming tap water.
It is important to change the water filter regularly.
–Depending on how many ice cubes are produced, the filter will need to be changed approximately every 6 months.
To avoid serious illness or death, do not use water that is microbiologically or chemically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection or other treatment before or after use of a filter.
Note:
–After installing a new water filter and switching on the ice maker, discard the first 24 hours' worth of ice production.
–If the ice maker has not been used for a prolonged time discard any ice cubes in the freezer, empty the container and discard the ice production of the next 24 hours.
–If the appliance or ice maker have not been routinely used for several weeks or months, or if the ice cubes have an unpleasant odor, change the water filter.
Note: Air trapped in the system may cause water and the filter cartridge to eject forcefully. Use caution when removing.
–When the filter indicator turns red, the filter will need to be changed soon.
Replacement filters can be ordered from Miele.
–When the red filter indicator flashes, it is time to change the filter.
