5.8.9 IceMaker*

The IceMaker is in the top drawer. The drawer is labeled “IceMaker”.

Make sure that the following conditions are fulfilled:

-The appliance is level.

-The appliance is connected to the electricity supply.

-The freezer compartment is switched on.

-The minimum freezer temperature is 14 °F (-10 °C).

-The IceMaker is connected to the water supply.

-All air was bled from the waterline before starting the icemaker. The icemaker will only work if there is no air in the waterline.

Switching on the IceMaker*

u Pull out the drawer.

Fig. 48

u Press On/Off button Fig. 48 (1) so that the LED Fig. 48 (2) lights up.

u Push in the drawer.

w The IceMaker symbol Fig. 4 (10) LED lights up.

Note

u The IceMaker only produces ice cubes when the drawer is completely closed.

Producing ice cubes*

The production capacity depends on the freezer temperature. The lower the temperature, the more ice cubes can be produced in a certain period.

The production capacity is 90100 ice cubes in 24 hours at a freezing temperature of 0 °F (-18 °C).

To have the maximum capacity of approx. 130 ice cubes in 24 hours, activate the SuperFrost Function. Be aware that this increases the energy consumption because the compressor will run constantly.

The ice cubes fall out of the IceMaker into the drawer. When the ice cubes reach a certain height in the drawer, no more ice cubes can be produced. The IceMaker will not fill the drawer to the top.

If large quantities of ice cubes are required, the complete IceMaker drawer can be swapped with the neighboring drawer. When you close the drawer, the IceMaker automatically restarts production.

When the IceMaker is switched on for the first time, it may take up to 24 hours for the first ice cubes to be produced.

Note

Particles may accumulate in the IceMaker or water line the first time the appliance is used or after an extended period out of service.

u To achieve this, do not consume or use the ice cubes that are produced within 72 hours.

Setting the water supply time*

The opening time of the valve on the IceMaker can be adjusted if, for example, the water pressure in the pipe is too low or too high.

The water supply time can be set in stages from E1 (short supply time) to E8 (long supply time). The default setting

is E3.

u Activate setting mode: press and hold the SuperFrost button Fig. 4 (14) for approximately 5 s.
