Ice Maker
The Ice Maker makes ice cubes.
The Ice Maker starts to make ice cubes as soon as 
the appliance has reached the set temperature. When 
the Ice Cube Container is full, the Ice Maker stops ice 
production automatically.

CAUTION: 
Do not place bottles or food in the Ice Cube 
Container in order to cool them quickly. The Ice Maker 
may be blocked and could be damaged.

Note:
If the Ice Maker is used for the first time and/or after 
a long period of not being used, do not use the ice 
that is produced in the first day for hygienic reasons.

Container in order to  cool them quickly. The Ice Maker 
may be blocked and could be damaged.
Using the Ice and Water Dispenser
The Ice and Water Dispenser only works when 
the appliance is connected to the water line.
When the appliance has been switched On, it takes 
approximately 24 hours until the first batch of ice 
cubes are ready.
Once the appliance has been connected, the water 
line has to be purged of any trapped air.
Run the drinking water and pour out until the water 
can be dispensed without bubbles. Pour away the first 
5 glasses.
When using the Ice Maker for the first time, do not 
use the first 30-40 ice cubes out of hygienic reasons.
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, the Ice Maker 
stops ice production automatically.
Note:
To prevent ice cubes from sticking together, 
a Rotating Metal Screw (Agitation Function) can be 
switched On for 2 seconds (see chapter “Getting to 
Know Your Appliance”, section “Ice and Water 
Dispenser Controls”).
