Ice maker

Safety instructions and warnings

• The ice maker is designed exclusively to make ice cubes in

quantities required by a household and may only be operated

with water suitable for this purpose.

• All repairs and work on the ice maker may only be carried out

by customer service personnel or other trained personnel.

The first three batches of ice must not be consumed or

used. This applies both to using the appliance for the first

time and also to using it after it has not been used for a

lengthy period of time. This ensures that the water supply

is purged.

The manufacturer cannot accept liability for damage

caused by a faulty connection to the mains water supply.

• The ice maker will only work if the combined refrigerator-freezer

is connected to the electricity supply. It will only make ice cubes

if the freezer compartment is operating.

• Ensure that the drawer is fully closed, as the ice maker can

otherwise not produce ice cubes.

Notes on freezing

• Always store identical food items together.
• Pack food which you are freezing yourself in quantities appro-

priate to your household. To ensure that the food freezes right

through, the following quantities should not be exceeded per

package: fruit, vegetables: up to 1 kg, meat: up to 2.5 kg.

• Pack frozen food in standard freezer bags or reuseable plastic,

metal or aluminium containers.

• Do not allow fresh food which is to be frozen to come into con-

tact with food already frozen. Always keep packs dry in order

to avoid them sticking together.

• Always write the date and contents on the pack and do not

exceed the stated storage time for the food.

• Do not freeze bottles and cans which contain carbonated drinks

as they might burst.

• Only take out as much food as is immediately required for

thawing. Use food which has been thawed in prepared meals

as quickly as possible.

Frozen food can be thawed in the following ways:

– in a fan oven,

– in a microwave oven,

– at room temperature,

– in the refrigerator: the cold given off by the frozen food is used

for cooling.

Bleeding the ice maker

To ensure that the ice maker works properly, the water supply

line must be bled.

• Touch the IceMaker icon

so that the IceMaker LED

comes on.

• Open the top freezer drawer.

• Press the ON/OFF button on the ice

maker housing for approx. 3 sec-

onds. The LED above the button

starts flashing.

• Press the button again briefly. The LED flashes more quickly.

• Close the freezer drawer immediately.
The water supply valve opens for 25 seconds and pumps all the

air out of the water supply system.

• Then the ice cube tray of the ice maker must be completely

emptied. See the section Activating the ice maker vacation

state.

• Finally, clean the ice cube bin.

Freezing with SuperFrost

Touch the SuperFrost icon

briefly so that the

LED

comes on.

• For small amounts of frozen food switch on SuperFrost 6 hours

beforehand. For the maximum amount (see freezing capacity on

the type plate) you will need to switch it on 24 hours beforehand.

• Then place the fresh food inside the freezer.

- The SuperFrost function switches off automatically. Depending

on the quantity of food placed in the freezer, this will normally

be between 30 and max. 65 hours. The freezing process is now

complete, the SuperFrost LED will go out.

You should not switch on the SuperFrost func tion:

- when placing frozen food in the freezer;

- when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food daily.
