Making ice cubes
(Appliances without ice maker)
S Fill the ice cube tray ¾ full of water
and place in the freezer compartĆ
ment.
S To loosen the ice cubes, twist the
ice tray slightly or hold briefly under
flowing water.
Automatic ice and
water dispenser
The following can be dispensed as
required:
- cooled water
- ice cubes
- crushed ice
! Warning!
Do not use fragile receptacles for
dispensing water or ice ć risk of
injury from broken glass!
Keep fingers clear of the discharge
opening. Risk of injury from crusher
blades!
Note:
The ice and water dispenser will not
function unless the appliance is
connected to the power supply.
When switching on your
new appliance, observe
the following
When the appliance has been conĆ
nected, there are still air bubbles in
the lines.
Run off drinking water and pour away
until water can be dispensed without
bubbles. Pour away the first 5 glasses.
When using the ice maker for the first
time, do not use the first 30Ć40 ice
cubes for reasons of hygiene.
Operating the ice maker
When the freezer compartment has
reached its freezing temperature, water
flows into the ice maker and freezes
into ice cubes. When the ice cubes
are ready, they are automatically disĆ
charged into the ice cube container.
Occasionally the sides of the ice cubes
stick together. When they are conveyed
to the outlet opening, they usually
break away from each other.
When the ice cube container is full, ice
making switches off automatically.
The ice maker can make approx.
100 ice cubes within 24 hours.
Do not place bottles or food in the
cube container in order to cool them
quickly. The ice maker may block
and be damaged.
When the appliance has been switched
on, it takes approx. 24 hours until the
first batch of ice cubes are ready.
When ice cubes are being made, the
buzzing water valve, the water flowing
into the ice cube tray and the falling ice
cubes can be heard.
Drinking water quality
All materials used in the drinks disĆ
penser are odourless and tasteless.
If the water has an aftertaste, this may
be caused by:
- Mineral and chlorine content of the
drinking water.
- Material of the domestic water line
or connection line.
- Freshness of the drinking water
(if water has not been dispensed for
a long time, the water may have a
stale" taste. In this case dispense
approx. 15 glasses of water and
pour away).
Taste and odour of the water may be
improved by installing the enclosed
water filter.
The enclosed water filter will filter
only particles out of the supply
water, not bacteria or microbes.
Dispensing water
S Press the button until the symbol
lights up.
S Press the glass against the dispenser
pad. The water stops running when
the glass is removed from the pad.
Tip:
The water from the water dispenser is
cooled to a palatable temperature.
If you would like the water colder,
place ice cubes in the glass before
dispensing the water.
Dispensing ice
S Press the button until the symbol for
ice cubes or crushed ice lights up.
S Press a suitable receptacle against
the dispenser pad.
Note:
- Remove the receptacle from the
dispenser pad when it is approx. half
full. Ice in the discharge may cause
the receptacle to overflow or block
the discharge.
- After switching over from dispensing
ice cubes to crushed ice, the disĆ
penser may still contain whole ice
cubes or pieces of ice cube.
These will be dispensed with the first
portions of crushed ice.
