5.5.9 IceMaker*
The IceMaker produces ice cubes using the water container
located in the refrigerator compartment. The water container
can also be used to provide chilled drinking water.
The IceMaker is located in the top drawer of the freezer on the
left-hand side.
Make certain that the following conditions are met:
-
The appliance is level.
-
The appliance is connected.
-
The freezer compartment is switched on.
-
The water tank was cleaned with water and is filled.
Producing ice cubes*
The production capacity depends on the freezer temperature.
The lower the temperature, the more ice cubes can be
produced in a specific period.
The ice cubes drop from the IceMaker into the drawer. When a
certain filling level has been reached, no further ice cubes are
produced. The IceMaker does not fill the drawer right up to the
brim.
Distribute the ice cubes evenly in the drawer to increase the
capacity.
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 and if it has been
out of use for a long time, particles may collect in the IceMaker
and/or water conduit.
u
Do not use or consume ice cubes that have been made 24
hours after the first ice cubes are made.
Filling the water tank*
WARNING
Risk of poisoning!
u
The water quality must comply with the drinking water regu-
lations of the respective country in which the appliance is
operating (e.g. 98/83/EC, NSF 61).
u

The IceMaker is solely intended to produce ice cubes in
quantities customary for household use and must be oper-
ated using water appropriate for this purpose.
u

of time, empty the water tank.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the IceMaker!

similar, gum up the pump and therefore lead to total pump
failure and, as a consequence, to damage to the IceMaker.

liquids containing sugar, such as soft drinks, fruit juices or
similar!
Note
The use of filtered, de-carbonated water ensures the supply of
drinking water with top quality flavour for problem-free ice cube
production.
You can achieve this water quality by using a table-top water
filter available from specialist shops.
u
Use only filtered, de-carbonated water to fill the water tank.
The IceMaker is supplied with water from a water tank in the
