5.8.10 Cold storage accumulators

The cold storage accumulators prevent the temperature from ris­ing too fast in the event of power failure. For optimal cooling in
case of failure, place the cooled cold storage accumulators on
the frozen food in the top, front area of the freezer compartment.

Cold storage accumulators

You can freeze and store the cold
storage accumulators either in
the freezer tray or in the ceiling of
the freezer compartment, de­pending on type of appliance. *

It is possible for cold storage ac­cumulators to be frozen in the
ceiling only in appliances without
NoFrost module!*

With the top drawer re­moved:

-

The appliance is connected.

-

The freezer compartment is switched on.

-

The IceMaker is connected to the water supply.

-

Switching on the IceMaker*

Maintenance

The ice cubes drop out of the IceMaker into the drawer. When a
certain filling level is reached, no more ice cubes are produced.

If large quantities of ice cubes are needed, the complete Ice­Maker drawer can be exchanged for the adjacent drawer. When
the drawer is closed, the IceMaker automatically re-commences
production.

Once the IceMaker has been switched on for the first time, it may
take up to 24 hours until the first ice cubes are produced.

Note

When the appliance is used for the first time or if has not been
used for a long time, the IceMaker has to be rinsed to remove any
particles present.

u

Therefore do not use or consume the ice cubes made in the
first 24 hours.

Switching off the IceMaker*

If no ice cubes are needed, the IceMaker can be switched off
independently of the freezer compartment.

When the IceMaker is switched off, the IceMaker drawer can also
be used for freezing and storing food.

u

Press the On/Off button for about 1 second until the LED goes
out.

u

Clean the IceMaker.

w

This ensures that no water or ice remains in the IceMaker.

6 Maintenance

6.1 Manual defrosting

The refrigerator compartment is defrosted automatically. The
defrost water evaporates as a result of the heat of the compres­sor. Drops of water on the rear wall are perfectly normal.*

u

Regularly clean the drain opening to allow the water to flow
away (see 6.3) .*

A layer of frost or ice can build up in the freezer compartment
after a long period of operation.*

The layer of frost or ice builds up faster if the appliance is opened
often or if the food is warm when placed inside. However, a thick
layer of ice will increase the appliance‘s energy consumption.
You should therefore defrost the appliance regularly.*

CAUTION*

Risk of injury and damage as a result of hot steam!

u

Do not use electric heaters or steam cleaners, naked flames
or defrosting sprays for defrosting.

u

Do not remove ice using sharp instruments.
