About Your Filtration System...

Water Filter Removal and Installation

WARNING

To avoid serious illness or death, do not use unit where water is unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after use of filter.

CAUTION

• Bypass cartridge DOES NOT filter water. Be sure to have replacement cartridge available when filter change is required.

• If water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter cartridge.

• If system has not been used for several months, and water has an unpleasant taste or odor, flush system by dispensing 2–3 glasses of water. If unpleasant taste or odor persists, change filter cartridge.

Initial Install of Water Filter

Remove blue bypass cap and

retain for later use.

Remove sealing label from

end of filter and insert into filter head.

• Rotate gently clockwise until filter stops and snap filter cover closed.

Reduce water spurts by flushing air from

system. Run water continuously (approximately 2 minutes) through dispenser until water runs steady.

• Additional flushing may be required in some households where water is of poor quality.

I'm trying to dispense water to flush the system. Where's the water?

During initial use, allow about a 1 to 2 minute delay to allow internal water tank to fill.

Replacing Water Filter

releases from filter head.

Drain water from filter into sink or toilet,

and dispose in normal household garbage.

Wipe up excess water in filter cover and

continue with installation steps 2 and 3.

Die richtige Entsorgung Ihres Kühlschranks WICHTIG: Leider kommt es immer noch vor, dass sich Kinder in einem Kühlschrank einschließen und

darin ersticken. Kühlschränke, die im freien Gelände oder auf Müllhalden weggeworfen werden, sind immer noch gefährlich, auch wenn sie „nur ein paar Tage“ dort bleiben. Wenn Sie sich von Ihrem alten Kühlschrank trennen, halten Sie sich bitte an die nachstehenden Anweisungen, um Unfälle zu vermeiden.

BEVOR SIE IHREN ALTEN KÜHLSCHRANK ODER IHR ALTES GEFRIERGERÄT WEGWERFEN:

• Montieren Sie die Türen ab.

• Lassen Sie die Fächer und Roste im Kühlschrank, damit Kindern das Hineinklettern erschwert wird.

Was Sie über Sicherheitsanweisungen wissen müssen

Warnungen und wichtige Sicherheitsanweisungen in diesem Handbuch können nicht alle möglichen Bedingungen und Situationen abdecken, die auftreten können. Gesunder Menschenverstand, Vorsicht und Verantwortung müssen bei der Installation, Wartung und dem Betrieb des Kühlschranks angewendet werden. Wenden Sie sich stets an Ihren Fachhändler, Vertragshändler, Kundendienst oder Hersteller, wenn es Probleme oder Bedingungen gibt, die Sie nicht verstehen.

Installation Ihres Kühlschranks

Die folgenden Anweisungen sollen Sie bei der Aufstellung Ihres Geräts unterstützen. Amana ist nicht für eine unsachgemäße Installation verantwortlich.

Gehen Sie wie folgt vor...

Der Kühlschrank muss von einem qualifizierten Techniker gemäß den Installationsanweisungen angeschlossen werden. Messen Sie die Türöffnung sowie die Breite und Tiefe des Kühlschranks aus. Montieren Sie, falls erforderlich, Griffe

oder Türen ab. Der Techniker muss darüber hinaus Folgendes tun:

1. Die Anschlussvorschriften der lokalen Wasser- und Stromversorgungsgesellschaft einhalten.

2. Den Wasseranschluss einrichten, bevor er den Stromanschluss herstellt.

Servicearbeiten am Stromkabel oder dessen Austausch müssen von qualifizierten Kundendienstleuten durchgeführt werden.

Voraussetzungen für die Installation

1. Der Kühlschrank muss mit einem für Sternschaltung ausgelegten Netzkabel an einer geerdeten Steckdose mit separatem 230 V, 50 Hz, 10A-Stromkreis angeschlossen werden.

2. Ein empfindlicher Boden muss mit Pappe oder Teppichen geschützt werden.

3. Der Kühlschrank darf nur auf einem Boden aufgestellt werden, der mindestens 429 kg trägt.

4. An den Seiten muss ein Abstand von 5 mm eingehalten werden. Bei Modellen mit einer Tiefe von mehr als 60 cm muss außerdem über dem Kühlschrank ein Abstand von 12,7 mm eingehalten werden.

5. 60 cm tiefe Modelle. Schneiden Sie die Ecken der oberen Platte in einem Winkel von 45° ab, falls sie einen Überhang von 25 mm hat. Der Kühlschrank lässt sich einfacher aufstellen und in die Waage bringen, wenn an den Seiten jeweils ein Abstand von

5 mm und oben einen Abstand von 7 mm eingehalten wird. An der Rückseite ist kein Mindestabstand erforderlich.

Holzunterlage entfernen

VORSICHT

Um Verletzungen oder Beschädigungen zu vermeiden, muss die Holzunterlage von zwei Personen entfernt werden.

1. Verkleben Sie die Türen, um zu verhindern, dass sie sich unerwartet öffnen.

2. Schieben Sie einen Gerätekarren seitlich unter den Kühlschrank.

3. Umwickeln Sie den Kühlschrank mit einer Decke oder einem Kissen. Befestigen Sie sie mit einem Gurt. Schieben Sie die Schaumeinlagen des Versandkartons unter den Gurt und ziehen Sie dem Gurt fest an.

4. Senken Sie den Gerätekarren zu Boden, so dass seine Griffe auf den Boden zu liegen kommen.

5. Entfernen Sie die beiden oberen Schrauben vom Beschlag.

6. Stellen Sie den Kühlschrank und den Gerätekarren wieder in eine aufrechte Position. Entfernen Sie den Gurt.

7. Schieben Sie den Gerätekarren unter die gegenüberliegende Kühlschrankseite.

8. Wiederholen Sie die Schritte 3 - 5.

9. Entfernen Sie die Holzunterlage.

10. Stellen Sie den Kühlschrank und den Gerätekarren wieder aufrecht und entfernen Sie den Gerätekarren.

WICHTIG:

Lassen Sie den Kühlschrank für das Entfernen der Schrauben nicht länger als notwendig horizontal liegen.
