~ "Container" on page 13
This is how to re-insert the ice cube container:
The ice pack delays the warming of stored frozen food.
You can take out the ice pack to temporarily keep food cool, e.g. in a cool bag.
Never store bottles or food in the ice cube container, even for short periods. This can block and damage the ice maker.
Ice cube production starts as soon as the appliance has reached the set temperature.
Ice cube production stops automatically when the ice cube container is full.
When using the appliance for the first time, discard ice cubes produced within the first 24 hours for hygiene reasons.
If you have stopped ice cube production for several days, discard the first 30-40 ice cubes produced for hygiene reasons.
Information about switching ice cube production on and
off
~ "Switching ice cube production on or off" on page 17

Change the water filter after 6 months at the latest.
If the ice tastes stale, discard the rest of the ice cubes and the ones produced over the next 24 hours. If the ice still tastes stale, change the water filter.
A new water filter or bypass cartridge can be obtained from customer service or a specialist dealer.
1.Turn the cap of the water filter counter-clockwise.

en-us Operating the appliance
1.Press the main On/Off switch.
The appliance starts cooling and the light is switched on when the door is open.
2.Set the required temperature.
~ "Setting the temperature" on page 16
When the appliance has been switched on, it may take several hours until the set temperatures have been reached. Do not put in any food until the selected temperature has been reached.
The fully automatic NoFrost system ensures that the freezer compartment remains frost-free.
The front sides of the housing are partly heated slightly. This prevents condensation in the area of the door seal.
If the freezer compartment door cannot be immediately re-opened after it has been closed, wait until the resulting low pressure has equalized.
Deterioration in water quality
The water supply must be turned off 3 hours before disconnecting. This prevents mold forming with any unused water.
3.Press the main On/Off switch.
4.Pull out the mains plug or switch off the fuse. The appliance is no longer cooling.
5.Empty the ice cube container and clean the appliance.
