Um die Gefahren für Personenschaden und Tod zu verringern, befolgen Sie
bittedie grundlegenden Vorsichtsmaßnahmen, einschließlich der folgenden:
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.

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 an einer geerdeten Steckdose mit separatem 230 V, 50 Hz, 10A-Stromkreis angeschlossen
werden.

Stellen Sie den Kühlschrank- und
1
Gefrierschrankregler an der oberen
linken Kühlschrankwand auf 4.
WICHTIG: Wenn der Gefrierschrankregler auf Off steht,
kühlt weder der Kühl- noch der Gefrierschrankteil.
Warten Sie 24 Stunden, bis sich die
2
Temperaturen stabilisiert haben.
Überprüfen Sie, ob die Temperatur
4
im Kühlschrankteil zwischen 13°
und 4° C liegt.
Drehen Sie den Regler auf die nächst höhere Zahl,
wenn die Temperatur zu hoch ist.
Drehen Sie den Regler auf die nächst niedrigere
Zahl, wenn die Temperatur zu niedrig ist.

Informationen zu Ihrem Filtersystem...
Wasserfilter entfernen und installieren
WARNUNG
!
Zur Vermeidung von schweren und lebensbedrohlichen Krankheiten sollten Sie das Gerät in Gegenden mit gefährlicher
oder unbekannter Wasserqualität nicht ohne die entsprechenden Desinfektionsmaßnahmen vor oder nach dem Filtern
verwenden.
VORSICHT
!
Der Bypass-Einsatz filtert KEIN Wasser. Sorgen Sie dafür, dass Sie stets einen Ersatzfiltereinsatz parat haben, wenn ein
Filterwechsel erforderlich wird.
Wenn das Wasserfiltersystem gefroren war, muss der Filtereinsatz ausgetauscht werden.
Wenn das System mehrere Monate lang nicht verwendet wurde und das Wasser einen unangenehmen Geschmack oder
Geruch aufweist, spülen Sie das System durch, indem Sie 2 bis 3 Gläser Wasser entnehmen. Wenn das Wasser
weiterhin einen unangenehmen Geschmack oder Geruch hat, sollten Sie den Filtereinsatz wechseln.
Wasserfilter erstmalig installieren
Entfernen Sie die blaue
1
Bypass-Kappe und heben
Sie sie für eine spätere
Verwendung auf.
Ziehen Sie die
2
Versiegelungsstreifen
am Ende des Filters
ab und setzen Sie ihn
in den Filterhalter ein.
Drehen Sie ihn vorsichtig bis zum Anschlag und
schließen Sie den Deckel der Filterhalterung.
Verringern Sie Wasserspritzer, indem Sie die
3
Luft aus dem System spülen. Lassen Sie das
Wasser (etwa 2 Minuten) ununterbrochen aus
dem Spender laufen, bis es gleichmäßig fließt.
Bei schlechter Wasserqualität müssen Sie eventuell
mehr Wasser ablaufen lassen.
Ich versuche, Wasser zum Spülen
des Systems auszugeben.
Es kommt aber keins?
Warten Sie bei erstmaliger Verwendung etwa 1 bis 2 Minuten,
damit der interne Wassertank gefüllt werden kann.
Wasserfilter ersetzen
WICHTIG: Durch im System eingeschlossene Luft
kann Wasser herausspritzen und der Filtereinsatz
herausgeschleudert werden. Seien Sie daher beim
Entfernen des Filters vorsichtig.
Drehen Sie den Filter entgegen dem
1
Uhrzeigersinn, bis er sich aus der
Filterhalterung entnehmen lässt.
Lassen Sie das Wasser im Filter in das
2
Waschbecken oder die Toilette laufen
und entsorgen Sie den Filter im
normalen Hausmüll.
Wischen Sie den Filterdeckel trocken und
3
fahren Sie mit den Installationsschritten
2 und 3 fort.
Wann muss ich den Wasserfilter
auswechseln?
Einige Spendermodelle verfügen über eine
Filterwechselanzeige. Hinweise zur Bedienung und zum
Zurücksetzen dieser Funktion finden Sie im Abschnitt
„Merkmale des Spenders“ in diesem Handbuch.
WICHTIG: Die Beschaffenheit und die Menge des
verwendeten Wassers bestimmen die Lebensdauer des
Wasserfiltereinsatzes. Bei hohem Wasserverbrauch oder
schlechter Wasserqualität muss er eventuell öfter
gewechselt werden.
Was ist, wenn ich das Wasserfiltersystem
nicht verwenden möchte?
Der Wasserspender kann auch ohne den Wasserfilter verwendet
werden. Wenn Sie sich für diese Option entscheiden, ersetzen
Sie den Filter durch die blaue Bypass-Kappe.
29
Wie bestelle ich einen Ersatzfiltereinsatz?
Der Amana® Ersatz-Wasserfiltereinsatz Modell WF 50 ist bei
Ihrem Amana®-Händler oder -Kundendienst erhältlich.
Weitere Informationen erhalten Sie bei Ihrem örtlichen
Fachhändler.
Merkmale des Kühlschrankteils
Was ist, wenn diese Merkmale
bei meinem Gerät anders sind?
Dieses Handbuch deckt die zahlreichen Merkmale ab, die in dieser
Produktlinie verfügbar sind. Wenn Sie für Ihren Kühlschrank zusätzliche
Elemente kaufen möchten, wenden Sie sich bitte an Ihren Fachhändler.
Innere Regale
VORSICHT
!
Um Personen- oder Sachschäden zu vermeiden, beachten Sie bitte Folgendes:
Vergewissern Sie sich, dass das Regal fest eingesetzt ist, bevor Sie etwas darauf legen.
Gehen Sie vorsichtig mit Glasfächern um. Glasböden können brechen, wenn sie gebogen, zerkratzt oder einer
plötzlichen Temperaturveränderung ausgesetzt werden.
Slide Glide Regale
(einige Modelle)
Slide Glide Regale werden an eine Konstruktion
aus zwei Querschienen angehängt. Die Regale
können nebeneinander
ausgerichtet werden, um
eine Lagerfläche mit der
vollen Breite zu schaffen,
oder sie können an
getrennten Querschienen
befestigt werden, so dass
die Regale nach links oder
rechts entsprechend dem
Bedarf an Lagerfläche
geschoben werden
können.
Spillsaver Easy
Glide
(einige Modelle)
Spillsaver Easy Glide
Regale lassen sich leicht
reinigen; sie können nämlich
herausgezogen werden, um
Kühlgut im hinteren Bereich zu
erreichen. Für eine leichte
Reinigung können Glasböden herausgenommen werden,
indem sie bis zum Anschlag herausgezogen und dann
aus dem Rahmen gehoben werden.
Anweisungen zum Entfernen von Regalen und Rahmen
finden Sie unter Spillsaver feststehende Regale.
Regal herausnehmen und einsetzen:
Zum Entfernen des Regals heben Sie es um 10° an,
um es aus der Doppel-Querschiene auszuhaken
und nehmen Sie es
dann heraus.
Zum Installieren gehen Sie
in umgekehrter
Reihenfolge vor.
Regale verschieben:
Heben Sie das Regal vorne leicht an und schieben
Sie es nach rechts
oder links.
Doppelquerschienen
herausnehmen und
einsetzen:
Zum Entfernen der Schienen schieben
Sie sie nach oben, um sie aus dem
Metallgestänge auszuhaken.
Zum Installieren gehen Sie in umgekehrter
Reihenfolge vor.
Spillsaver
SpillsaverTM- feststehende
Regale halten für eine leichtere
Reinigung kleinere Mengen
von ausgeschütteten
Flüssigkeiten zurück.
Zum Entfernen der Regale
heben Sie sie an und
nehmen sie dann heraus.
Zum Installieren der Regale gehen
Sie in umgekehrter Reihenfolge vor.
Hintere Regalbodenerweiterungen
(einige Modelle)
Hintere Regalbodenerweiterungen verhindern, dass
Kühlgut hinten über den Rand des Regalbodens fällt.
Regalbodenerweiterungen herausnehmen
und einsetzen:
Zum Entfernen der
Regalbodenerweiterung
ziehen Sie sie gerade nach
oben vom Regalboden ab.
Zum Einsetzen stecken
Sie die Stifte der
Regalbodenerweiterung
in die Löcher des
Regalbodenrahmens ein.
