not to leave the appliance door open longer
than necessary.

Do not overstock the refrigerator.
Be sure to leave space between foods and between the foods and the interior compartment walls.

23

Tips on refrigeration

Remove the leaves of root vegetables to
prevent them from absorbing the nutrients.

Items not requiring refrigeration: Onions,
peppers, garlic, ginger.

Thawing frozen foods inside the refrigerator
helps conserve energy.

Items not suitable for refrigeration: Gourds,
melons, bananas, pineapple. Refrigeration
promotes their decomposition. Do refrigerate
unripe fruits.

24

Caution: Do not use the egg tray as an ice cube tray and never place it in the freezer or
Superfrost area to prevent it from cracking.

Freezer compartment

the temperature changes from opening and closing the door.

25

Notes on freezing

Let warm foods and drinks cool down to room
temperature before putting them in the freezer
compartment.

Package the food before freezing it. The
packages should be dry to prevent their sticking
together. Use only freezer-compatible packing
material; this should be strong, taste-neutral,
air- and watertight so as to minimize taste
contamination and loss of quality.

Pack the food into portions of up to 2.5 kg
suitable for your household. As a result, the
portions will freeze faster and the quality after
thawing remain optimal for preparation.

Always write the content and freezing date on
the packing, and do not exceed the
recommended length of storage so as to prevent
loss of quality.

Remove only the required amount to be thawed.
Thawed foods must never be frozen again.

26

Never place more fresh food in the freezer at
one time than the maximum freezing capacity.

Starting up the ice maker and dispenser

Preparations before starting up the ice maker and dispenser

The ice maker can be connected either directly to a water supply line if fitted
with a filter (option A) or to a drinking water container if fitted with a water
pump (option B).

Cut the water line to the right length to prevent it from kinking. The
recommended maximum length for the water line is 12 m. The pressure drop
resulting from an excessively long water line could adversely affect the ice cube
maker capacity.

Keep the water line away from heat sources.

The water supply line should be installed and checked by professionals.

When calling for refrigerated water for the first time, keep pressure on the
dispenser lever for one minute several times until water flows out, in order to
allow the water tank inside the appliance to fill up. Be sure not to hold the
dispenser lever pressed for too long, otherwise the water valve may overheat.

Option A:

Water supply line installation
The pressure of the cold water supplied to the ice maker should be within 1.5-8.5
bar.
It is recommended to use drinking water for producing ice cubes since the filter
does not sterilise bacteria.

Option B:

The water pump must be connected to its own outlet and properly grounded.
Removal or modification of the water pump and modification or repair of the
water supply line by unauthorised persons are not permissible.
To prevent fire, do not store or use flammable products such as fuel near the
water pump.
The water pump is to be used solely with room temperature water; it is not
suitable for use with chemicals, fruit juice or other grainy drinks, coffee or other
hot liquids.
If the water pump will not be used for en extended period of time, pull out its
power plug.
Periodically check the water tank to make sure that the water level is sufficient.
Do not push, shake or knock the water pump.
Place the water pump and drinking water container on a sturdy and level surface.
After opening the small lid of the drinking water container, protect the opening
with a dust cover. Guide one end of a hose to the bottom of the container and
connect the other end to the water pump inlet (indicated by an INLET symbol).
Connect one end of another hose to the water pump outlet (indicated by an
OUTLET symbol) and the other end to the water valve inlet under the back of the
refrigerator.

27

Ice maker and dispenser operation

Precautions

Do not connect the ice maker water line when the temperature is below 0 ºC,
otherwise the water line may freeze
Open the valve and flush the water line to check the line connections for possible
leaks. Close the valve again when the water is clean and clear.
The ice maker does not become operational until the temperature has reached or
gone under -15 °C. (Do not consume the first batch of ice cubes.)
After setting up the appliance, be sure to check that the water supply line is
properly positioned so that it will not be pinched or damaged.
The ice maker must be installed by an authorized representative.
The ice maker must be connected to a standard cold water pipe.
If the water dispenser indicator does not work, contact customer service or a
qualified professional for repair.

Ice maker operation

28

Each cycle produces eight ice cubes. The ice cube production capacity depends on
variations of the ambient temperature and how frequently the door is opened.

Caution: Let the appliance operate at least 24 hours before starting ice
cube production

Do not consume the first ice cubes after starting up the appliance for the first time or
following a long period of inoperation.
Arrange the ice cubes manually to make sure that the container has been filled.
A few of the eight ice cubes produced in one ice maker cycle may stick together.

Removing and installing the ice cube container

Removing the ice cube container

Press the middle section of the ice cube container in and pull it off its shelf.

Re-placing the ice cube container

Slide the ice cube container in the channel on both sides of the inner sleeve until it is clasped
into position.
If the ice cube container cannot be fit into position, take it out again, rotate the support by
90°, and then re-insert the container so that the clamp locks with the channel.

Dispenser operation

Dispenser operation

Choose crushed ice, refrigerated water or ice cubes. Slightly push a glass against the ice/water lever as
shown in the illustration.

(1) Dispensing crushed ice

Press the appropriate button so that the
indicator for crushed ice lights up.
Lightly press against the lever so that
crushed ice is supplied.

(2) Dispensing ice cubes

Press the appropriate button so that the
indicator for ice cubes lights up.
Lightly press against the lever so that ice
cubes are supplied.

(3) Dispensing refrigerated water

Press the appropriate button so that the
indicator for refrigerated water lights up.
Lightly press against the lever so that
refrigerated water is supplied.

Dispensing crushed ice

Even with the ice cube option selected, some crushed ice may be supplied simultaneously. It is also
possible that the crushed ice supply is mingled with a few ice cubes.
When crushed ice is frequently called for, it is normal for frost to build up around the outlet, but it
will eventually evaporate.
Keep the glass close to the dispenser to prevent ice from spilling.

Dispensing refrigerated water

Due to air in the water supply line, refrigerated water may not be available immediately after
installation. In this case, hold the dispenser lever pressed in for as long as two minutes to evacuate
any remaining air.

After that, the supplied water will become increasingly cooler.

Refrigerated water does not contain any ice cubes. To lower the temperature of the refrigerated water,
add crushed ice or ice cubes to it.

Caution: Keep fingers and objects away from the dispenser.

30

Dispenser precautions

Precautions

The following instructions refer only to products equipped with an ice cube maker, ice crusher and
refrigerated water dispenser.

Do not use very tall or short glasses.

Hold the glass as close as possible to the ice cube outlet so as to prevent dropping ice cubes or
jamming the ice cube supply.

The outlet closes five seconds after ice cubes have been supplied.

When helping yourself to ice cubes, hold the glass under the outlet for 2 to 3 seconds after
releasing the switch, as more ice cubes may be delivered.

When helping yourself to water, hold the glass under the outlet for 10 to 20 seconds after
releasing the switch, as more water may be delivered.

Regularly empty the water collection tray and wipe off water drops from the dispenser using a
rag.

When selecting ice cubes after crushed ice was last dispensed, a few remaining pieces of
crushed ice may be delivered.

Remove any remaining ice shavings from the outlet to prevent jamming.

Do not place drinks or other foods in the ice cube container, as this may damage the ice maker.

To avoid injuries, do not touch the ice outlet with your hand and do not remove the ice maker
cover.

Do not consume the first seven or so glasses of water and 20 or so ice cubes after starting up
the appliance for the first time or following a long period of inoperation.

Do not place ice cubes other than the ones produced by the appliance in the ice cube container,
as they may not be properly delivered or crushed.

An insufficient water supply line may cause ice cubes to be too small. An excessive water
supply line may cause ice cubes to be too large. Moreover, water may overflow into the ice
cube container, causing the ice cubes to stick together. Adjust the faucet accordingly or contact
an authorised professional.

Caution: The valve and relay may produce audible sounds while ice
cubes are being supplied
