Water filter
The appliance is supplied with an active charcoal filter which improves the taste and smell of ice cubes by removing chlorine and other substances from the incoming tap water.
Additional water filters are available from Miele.
It is important to change the water filter regularly.
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.
Water filter change indicator
The change indicator will appear approx. every 6 months depending on the quantity of ice produced.
–When the filter indicator lights red, this is an indication that a filter change will soon be necessary.
New water filters (Bypass and Active charcoal filters) are available from Miele.
When the filter indicator flashes red in the display the filter must be changed.
