How to program timed activation

Vacation Fridge

The various Shopping Modes help prepare the cooling, Fridge and TriAction compartments for the introduction of a heat load which can consist of fresh food or other items which may have warmed during transport. The more quickly an item can be cooled or frozen the better it will be preserved. This mode can also be effective at maintaining compartment temperatures while entertaining when higher than average door and drawer openings are anticipated.

The function lowers the refrigerator temperature to +2°C (35.6°F) for 12 hours, permitting more rapid cooling of food that has just been placed in. Once the 12 hours have expired, the function deactivates automatically, returning to the previously set temperature. It is possible to program a timed activation of the function. After a prolonged interruption of electrical current, it is necessary to reactivate the function.

It is possible to program the function with a delay of 1 to 12 hours.

This function (recommended in case of prolonged absences since it allows considerable energy savings) brings the refrigerator compartment temperature to +14°C (57.2°F). It is possible to program the duration, or it can be manually deactivated upon returning after a period of absence. This function remains active even if during the period of absence there is a prolonged interruption of electrical power.

to remove a shelf it is necessary to slide it up to the top

The door shelves can be easily removed for cleaning

Hold the door shelf at the sides and push it upwards to release it from

its seat, then pull it outwards.

Reverse the procedure to reinstall.

Activation and use of the Ice Maker

If the ice is not used frequently is advisable to empty the ice bin once every 8-10 days.

It is normal that some ice cubes stick to one another. If the ice is not frequently used, the older cubes can become opaque, and will

have a strange avor and become smaller.

The Icemaker automatically deactivates if the Vacation function is activated.

When the Icemaker is started for the rst time, it is recommended to dispose of the rst full

bin of ice.

If the equipment has been switched off for a month or more, it is recommended to perform a water cleaning cycle. (See section 5: Settings and Special Functions).

Activation and use of the Ice Maker

To activate the Ice Maker after installation of the appliance, press the Icemaker button .

Please note that 12 to 24 hours are necessary before ice production may begin. The production is of 10 cubes per cycle in approximately 10 cycles in 24 hours.

The yield depends on the temperature set in the freezer, the room temperature and the frequency of door opening. If the appliance is operating without being connected to the water system, make sure that the Icemaker is deactivated by pressing the button .

The Ice Maker produces ice until the ice tray is full and will automatically stop once the maximum level is reached.

With the SuperIce function, it is possible to increase the quantity of ice produced a 24 hours, while the Set Cube Size function permits selection of the size of the produced ice cubes.

7.1

EnglishFrançais

The ice maker will only produce ice with the TriAction compartment set to Freezer Mode. The ice maker will continue to operate even when the ice bin is not in position.

Do the ice cubes have an unusual odor?

Operating noises

Quite normal noises

At factory default settings Ice Maker can produce approx. 100 ice cubes within 24 hours.

Ice is a porous material which can absorb odors from the environment. Ice cubes which have been in the ice cube container for a long time may absorb odors, stick together and slowly become smaller. We recommend that old ice cubes not be used. Other means of preventing odors:

The ice cube container should be cleaned occasionally with warm water. Make sure that you switch off the ice maker before clearing the container. Rinse out and wipe dry.

Check the contents of the freezer for spoiled or out-of-date food. All odorous foods should be wrapped thoroughly or stored in airtight containers to prevent the build-up of odors.

The water lter may have to be replaced in some models.

In some cases the quality of the water connection in the house should be checked.

Grumbling: refrigerating unit is running. Fan in the recirculating air system is running.

Bubbling, humming or gurgling noises: refrigerant is owing through the tubes.

Clicking: motor is switching on or off. Solenoid valve on the water connection is opening/closing.

Rumbling: ice cubes are falling into the ice cube container.

Note: the appliance is powered by two independent compressors. It is therefore normal to always have one of two compressors in operation.

Do not place any bottles or food for rapid cooling in the ice cube container. The ice maker may become blocked and be damaged.
