Ice and water
dispenser
Remove where necessary:
- cooled water
- crushed ice,
- ice cubes.
To avoid risk of _njury, never reach
into the ice cube dispenser
opening!
Do not place bottles or food in the
cube container in order to cool
them quickly. The ice maker may
block and be damaged.
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 discharged 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.
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.
Dispensing ice/water
o Select the ice and water
dispenser button (water,
crushed ice or ice cubes).
o Keep pressing the button until
the required quantity is in the
glass.
Dispensing water:
Using for the first time
The ice and water dispenser only
works when the appliance is
connected to the water mains.
When the appliance has been
switched on, it takes approx.
24 hours until the first batch of
ice cubes are ready.
When the appliance has been
connected, 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
30-40 ice cubes for reasons of
hygiene.
Observing drinking
water quality
All materials used in the drinks
dispenser 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 in the water supply.
Dispensing ice:
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.
