Ice Maker Operation
WARNING
• Failure to follow instructions regarding sanitizing can
compromise the hygienic safety of the ice dispensed.
Do not connect the refrigerator to a water supply that is
microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without
adequate disinfection. Systems certified for cyst reduction
may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable
cysts.
• Do not activate the ice maker unless the water supply line is
connected to the appliance and the water valve is on.
• Do not place hands or fingers near the ice maker when it is
turned on.
• The filter must be changed when indicated on the control
panel or when the ice maker has not been used for more
than 30 days.
• When using the appliance for the first time and every time
the filter is changed, discard the first container full of ice
produced.
• Do not place any bottles or food in the ice cube container.
The ice maker may become blocked or damaged.
Using the Ice Maker for the First Time
1. Make sure the ice maker is off (the ICE key is not lit). If the
ice maker is on, Tap the ICE key, located on the main control
panel, until the light goes off.
2. Perform a manual clean. See page 14.

Ice Maker Operation
Tap the ICE key to turn ON or OFF. The button is lit when the ice
maker is ON.
NOTES
• The ice maker will only produce ice with the FreshZone
freezer compartment set to freezer mode.
• 12 to 24 hours are required after activation before ice
production can begin. The ice maker normally produces 10
cubes per cycle, at approximately 10 cycles in 24 hours.
The ice maker produces ice until the ice container is full and
then stops. It restarts when ice cubes are removed.
• The yield may be reduced by a lower freezer temperature
setting, higher room temperature or frequent door opening.
• The size of the ice cubes produced is adjustable. See Set
Cube Size on page 12.
• Turn off the ice maker using the
water supply valve is turned off.
• It is normal for some ice cubes to stick to one another.
• If the ice is not used frequently, it is best to empty the ice
container once every 8-10 days. If the ice is not frequently
used, the older cubes can become cloudy, and will have a
strange flavor.
• Switch off the ice maker when removing the ice container.
• The ice maker automatically deactivates if Holiday Mode is
activated.
• If the appliance has been switched off for a month or more,
Dacor recommends performing a manual clean cycle (see
page 14).
• Ice cubes which have been in the ice cube container for a
long time may absorb odors. To prevent odors:
◊ Clean the ice container periodically (see page 13).
◊ Check the contents of the freezer for spoiled or
out-of-date food regularly. Wrap all odorous foods
thoroughly or store in airtight containers.
◊ Change the water filter at recommended intervals (see
page 23). Also check the quality of the water supply.

Care and Cleaning
General Cleaning
WARNING
• Before performing any sort of cleaning, disconnect the
appliance from the electrical outlet.
• Clean this appliance only in the manner instructed.
• The edges of the condenser are sharp. Use adequate
protection for hands and arms when cleaning it.
• Use only nonflammable, non-corrosive cleaners. Failure to
do so can result in explosion, fire or death.
• Never use abrasive or metallic products which could scratch
and damage the finishes permanently.

any way.
• Always wipe metallic finishes in the direction of the grain.
• Do not use the sponge on aluminium parts, such as the
edges of the glass shelves.

panel.
• Do not bring cold glass parts into contact with boiling water.
• To prevent damage, do not wash any parts of the appliance
in a dishwasher.
• Do not use mechanical devices or other methods to speed
up defrosting.
Both the refrigerator and FreshZone freezer sections defrost
automatically. Clean both sections once a month to avoid odor
build-up. Wipe spills up immediately.
Cleaning the Exterior
1. To clean the parts made of steel use the micro-ber cloth and
the sponge provided with the appliance.
2. Every now and then, polish the steel, wipe with a slightly
damp micro-ber cloth.
3. Take special care to keep the ventilation openings in the
appliance or inside the cabinet free of obstructions.
Grill Removal - Bottom Grill Models
• The ventilation grill on bottom grill models is held in place
with magnets and is easy to remove. On some models, you
may need to pull out the freezer drawer for easier access. To
remove, grasp the grill and pull straight out.
Cleaning the Ventilation Grill
• To clean the grill, use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush
attachment at maximum power, sweeping it along the vent
slits. While the grill is removed, check the condition of the
(nned) condenser and remove any dust, as instructed
below.
Cleaning the Condenser
1. After the appliance is switched off and the ventilation grill
removed, wait approximately 30 minutes for the (nned)
condenser to cool down to room temperature.
2. Remove any dust build-up as shown in the picture. Use a
vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment at maximum
power, sweeping it back and forth in the direction of the ns,
taking care not to bend any of them.
Ventilation Grill Cleaning/Removal
• Before cleaning and/or removing the ventilation grill, switch
off the appliance by tapping the ON/OFF key on the main
control panel for about 3 seconds. Removing the ventilation
grill allows you to clean the back side.
Grill Removal - Top Grill Models

access, but cannot be completely removed. To access the
back of the grill (and the condenser), grasp the bottom on
both sides and pull out and up.
3. Start up the appliance again by tapping the ON/OFF key on
the control panel for approximately 3 seconds.
Cleaning the Interior

of lukewarm water and a small amount of dishwashing
detergent. See the following sections for instructions on how
to disassemble removable parts.
2. Rinse and dry right away.
3. The ice cube container should be cleaned occasionally with
warm water. Make sure that you switch off the ice maker
before cleaning it. Rinse out and wipe dry.
