Operating the ice
maker
When the freezer compartment has
reached its freezing temperature,
water flows into the ice maker and
freezes into ice cubes. When the ice
cubes are ready, they are
automatically discharged into the ice
cube container.
Occasionally the sides of the ice
cubes stick together. When they are
conveyed to the outlet opening, they
usually break away from each other.
When the ice cube container is full,
ice making switches off
automatically.
The ice maker can make approx.
100 ice cubes within 24 hours.
Do not place any bottles or food
for rapid cooling in the ice cube
container. The ice maker may
become blocked and be
damaged.
When the appliance has been
switched on, it takes approx.
24 hours until the first batch of ice
cubes are ready.
When ice cubes are being made, the
buzzing water valve, the water
flowing into the ice cube tray and the
falling ice cubes can be heard.
Drinking water quality
All materials used in the drinks
dispenser are odorless and
tasteless.
If the water has an aftertaste, this
may be caused by:
- Mineral and chlorine content of
the drinking water.
- Material of the domestic water
line or connection line.
- Freshness of the drinking water
(if water has not been dispensed
for a long time, the water may
have a stale" taste. In this case
dispense approx. 15 glasses of
water and pour away).
