rear. Dispense some ice to force the ice
forward in the bin. This will allow the bin
to ll completely.
7.4 Ice Maker and Storage Bin
Capacity
This ice maker should produce 1 Kilogram
of ice per 24 hours. The ice bin will hold
about 1,6 Kilogram of ice.
7.5 Turning the fresh food
ice maker on and o
IMPORTANT
The ice maker is turned on at the
factory so it can work as soon as
the refrigerator is installed� If it is
not possible to connect a water
supply, set the ice maker’s On/
O feature to O; otherwise, the
ice maker’s ll valve may make
a loud chattering noise when it
attempts to operate without water�
Ice production is controlled by the ice
maker’s On/O feature on the control
panel. Pressing the On/O feature turns
the ice maker on & o.
NOTE
The ice maker also has a
built-in plastic signal arm that
automatically stops ice production
when the ice bin is full� This
signal arm should not be used
to manually stop the ice maker�
IMPORTANT
Turning o the ice maker simply
disables ice making� Existing ice
can still be dispensed, and water
can be dispensed�
16 www.aeg.com
IMPORTANT
On occasion, unusually small
ice cubes may be noticed in the
bucket or in dispensed ice� This
could occur in normal operation
of the ice maker� If happening
frequently, it may be an indication
of low water pressure or the
water lter needs to be replaced.
As the water lter nears the end
of its useful life and becomes
clogged with particles, less water
is delivered to the ice maker
during each cycle� Remember,
if it’s been six months or longer
since last changing the water
lter, replace it with a new one.
Poor quality household water
may require the lter to be
changed more frequently�
CAUTION
If the water supply to the
refrigerator is softened,
be sure the softener is properly
maintained� Chemicals from a
water softener can damage the
ice maker�
7.6 Ice maker/dispenser tips
• If refrigerator is not connected to a
water supply or the water supply is
turned o, turn o the ice maker as
described in the previous section.
• The following sounds are normal
when the ice maker is operating:
- Motor running
- Ice dropping into ice bin
- Water valve opening or closing
- Running water
• If a large quantity of ice is needed
at one time, it is best to get cubes
directly from the ice bin.
• Ice cubes stored too long may
develop an odd avor. Empty the ice
bin as explained below.
• When dispensing cubed ice, it is
normal to have a small quantity of little
pieces along with the whole cubes.
• To avoid splashing, dispense ice into
the container before adding liquids.
• It is normal for ice to ll to the top of
the ice bin.
7.7 Cleaning the ice maker
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at
regular intervals, especially prior to
vacation or moving.
1. Turn o the ice maker.
2. Remove the ice bin by pulling
straight out.
3. Empty and carefully clean the ice bin
with mild detergent. Do not use harsh
or abrasive cleaners. Do not place in
dishwasher. Rinse with clear water.
4. Allow the ice bin to dry completely
before replacing in the freezer.
5. Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice
maker on.
Remove and empty the ice
bin if:
• An extended power failure (one hour
or longer) causes ice cubes in the
ice bin to melt and refreeze together
after power is restored, jamming the
dispenser mechanism.
• Ice dispenser is used infrequently. Ice
cubes will freeze together in the bin,
jamming the dispenser mechanism.
Removing Ice Bin
Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen
the cubes or clean as explained above.
17ENGLISH
CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar
sharp instrument to break up the
ice� This could damage the ice
bin and dispenser mechanism�
To loosen stuck ice, use warm
water� Before replacing the ice bin,
make sure it is completely dry�
IMPORTANT
When removing or replacing the
ice bin, avoid rotating the auger
in the ice bin� If the auger is
accidentally rotated, realign the
auger by turning it in 45 degree
turns (see below) until the ice
bin ts into place with the drive
mechanism� If the auger is not
properly aligned when replacing
the ice bin, the refrigerator will
not dispense ice� The fresh food
door also may not close properly
causing warm air to leak into the
fresh food compartment�

Energy saving tips
We recommend that you follow the tips
below to save energy.
• Freezer: The internal conguration of
the appliance is the one that ensures
the most ecient use of energy.
• Fridge: Most ecient use of energy
is ensured in the conguration with
the drawers in the bottom part of
the appliance and shelves evenly
distributed. Position of the door bins
does not aect energy consumption.
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than necessary.
• Freezer: The colder the temperature
setting, the higher the energy
consumption.
• Fridge: Do not set too high temperature
to save energy unless it is required by
the characteristics of the food.
• If the ambient temperature is high
and the temperature control is set to
low temperature and the appliance
is fully loaded, the compressor may
run continuously, causing frost or ice
formation on the evaporator. In this
case, set the temperature control
toward higher temperature to allow
automatic defrosting and to save
energy this way.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not
cover the ventilation grilles or holes.
Hints for fresh food
refrigeration
• Fresh food compartment is the one
marked (on the rating plate) with .
• Good temperature setting that
ensures preservation of fresh food is a
temperature less than or equal to +4°C.
• Higher temperature setting inside the
appliance may lead to shorter shelf
life of food.
• Cover the food with packaging to
preserve its freshness and aroma.
• Always use closed containers for
liquids and for food, to avoid avours
or odours in the compartment.
• To avoid the cross-contamination
between cooked and raw food, cover
the cooked food and separate it from
the raw one.
• It is recommended to defrost the food
inside the fridge.
• Do not insert hot food inside the
appliance. Make sure it has cooled
down at room temperature before
inserting it.
• To prevent food waste the new stock
of food should always be placed
behind the old one.
13. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
12.6 To tting the door seal
1. Take the new gasket, the best way
to t it is starting at the top corners
of the refrigerator door. Push the lip
of the new gasket into the channel
between corners and work your
way around the door. Before tting
the bottom corners and t between.
Lastly work evenly at the top then the
bottom to the middle helping spread
any excess evenly on the longest
part of the se al.
2. Apply powder. Use a bit of baby
powder or talcum powder to prevent
sticking.
3. Close the refrigerator door, and open
it several times to inspect the gasket.
You are looking for any warped areas
of the gasket. Repeat this process
several times

Hints for refrigeration
• Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable
packaging and place it on the glass
shelf above the vegetable drawer.
Store meat for at most 1-2 days.
• Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly
(eliminate the soil) and place in a
special drawer (vegetable drawer).
• It is advisable not to keep the exotic
fruits like bananas, mangos, papayas
etc. in the refrigerator.
• Vegetables like tomatoes, potatoes,
onions, and garlic should not be kept
in the refrigerator.
• Butter and cheese: place in an airtight
container or wrap in an aluminium
foil or a polythene bag to exclude
as much air as possible.
• Bottles: close them with a cap and
place them on the door bottle shelf,
or (if available) on the bottle rack.
• Always refer to the expiry date of the
products to know how long to keep
them.
Hints for freezing
• Activate FastFreeze function at least
24 hours before placing the food
inside the freezer compartment.
• Before freezing wrap and seal fresh
food in: aluminium foil, plastic lm or
bags, airtight containers with lid.
• For more ecient freezing and
thawing divide food into small
portions.
• It is recommended to put labels and
dates on all your frozen food. This
will help to identify foods and to know
when they should be used before their
deterioration.
• The food should be fresh when being
frozen to preserve good quality.
Especially fruits and vegetables
should be frozen after the harvest to
preserve all of their nutrients.
• Do not freeze bottles or cans with
liquids, in particular drinks containing
carbon dioxide - they may explode
during freezing.
• Do not put hot food in the freezer
compartment. Cool it down at room
temperature before placing it inside
the compartment.
• To avoid increase in temperature
of already frozen food, do not place
fresh unfrozen food directly next to it.
Place food at room temperature in the
part of the freezer compartment where
there is no frozen food.
• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice
lollies immediately after taking them
out of the freezer. Risk of frostbites.
• Do not re-freeze defrosted food. If
the food has defrosted, cook it, cool it
down and then freeze it.
Hints for the storage
of frozen food
• Freezer compartment is the one
marked with .
• Good temperature setting that
ensures preservation of frozen food
products is a temperature less than
or equal to -18°C.
• Higher temperature setting inside the
appliance may lead to shorter shelf life.
• The whole freezer compartment is
suitable for storage of frozen food
products.
• Leave enough space around the food
to allow air to circulate freely.
• For adequate storage refer to food
packaging label to see the shelf life
of food.
• It is important to wrap the food in such
a way that prevents water, humidity or
condensation from getting inside.
Shopping tips After grocery
shopping:
• Ensure that the packaging is not
damaged - the food could be
deteriorated. If the package is
swollen or wet, it might have not been
stored in the optimal conditions and
defrosting may have already started.

and may cause re.
Interior cleaning
• You should clean the appliance interior
regularly. It will be easier to clean when
food stocks are low. Wipe the inside of
the fridge freezer with a weak solution of
bicarbonate of soda, and then rinse with
warm water using a wrung-out sponge
or cloth. Wipe completely dry before
replacing the shelves and baskets.
Thoroughly dry all surfaces and
removable parts.
• Although this appliance automatically
defrosts, a layer of frost may occur
on the freezer compartment’s interior
walls if the freezer door is opened
frequently or kept open too long. If the
frost is too thick, choose a time when
the supply of food stocks are low and
proceed as follows:
1. Remove existing food and
accessories baskets, unplug
the appliance from the mains
power and leave the doors open.
Ventilate the room thoroughly to
accelerate the thawing process.
2. When defrosting is completed,
clean your freezer as described
above.
CAUTION!
Don’t use sharp objects to
remove frost from the freezer
compartment. Only after the
interior is completely dry should
the appliance be switched back
on and plugged back into the
mains socket.
Door seals cleaning
Take care to keep door seals clean.
Sticky food and drinks can cause seals
to stick to the cabinet and tear when you
open the door. Wash seal with a mild
detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry
it thoroughly after cleaning.
CAUTION!
Only after the door seals are
completely dry should the
appliance be powered on.
WARNING!
The LED light must not be
replaced by the user! If the LED
light is damaged, contact the
customer helpline for assistance.

Automatic Ice Maker
Ice maker is not
making any ice.
• Ice maker is turned o.
• Refrigerator is not
connected to water line
or water valve is not open.
• The water supply line
is kinked.
• The water lter is not seated
properly.
• The water lter may be
clogged with foreign
material.
• Turn on ice maker. For the
fresh food ice maker, press
ice maker on-o button once.
• Connect the unit to the
household water supply and
ensure the water valve is
open.
• Ensure that the supply line
does not kink when the
refrigerator is pushed into
place against the wall.
• Remove and re-install the
water lter. Be sure to seat it
fully into the locked position.
• If water dispenses slowly
or not at all, or if the lter
is six months old or older,
it should be replaced.
Ice maker is not
making enough ice.
• Ice maker is producing less
ice than expected.
• The water lter may be
clogged with foreign
material.
• The water supply line is
kinked.
• Water pressure is extremely
low. Cut-o and cut-on
pressures are too low
(well systems only).
• Reverse osmosis system
is in regenerative phase.
• The ice maker will produce
approximately 1 kg of ice
(fresh food ice maker)
every 24 hours depending
on usage conditions.
• If water dispenses slower
than normal, or if the lter
is six months old or older,
it should be replaced.
• Ensure that the supply line
does not kink when the
refrigerator is pushed into
place against the wall.
• Have someone turn up the
cut-o and cut-on pressure
on the water pump system
(well systems only).
• It is normal for a reverse
osmosis system to be
below 20 psi during the
regenerative phase.
Ice cubes are
freezing together.
• Ice cubes are not being
used frequently enough
or interruption of power
for prolonged time.
• Remove ice container and
discard ice. The ice maker
will produce fresh supply.
Ice should be used at least
twice weekly to keep the
cubes separated.
34 www.aeg.com
Concern Potential Cause Common Solution
• Ice cubes are hollow (shells
of ice with water inside). The
hollow cubes break open in
the bin and leak their water
onto existing ice, which
causes it to freeze together.
• This generally occurs when
the ice maker does not get
enough water. This is usually
the result of a clogged water
lter or restricted water
supply. Replace the water
lter and if the condition still
occurs, check to see if the
water valve is not turned on
all the way or if there is a
kinked water supply line.
Dispenser (Ice & Water)
