							For the automatic ice cube maker to
operate, it must be connected to the
household water supply. See
Plumbing.
Turning on the ice cube maker
Make sure that the ice cube
container is under the ice cube
maker, as far as possible.
Ice cubes will not be produced unless
the container is completely closed.
Touch the sensor button for the ice
cube maker so that it turns yellow.
As soon as the freezer has cooled to a
freezing temperature, the ice cube
container fills with water. Cold air is
blown directly over the container.
As soon as the ice cubes are frozen,
they fall into the ice cube container.
The ice cube maker can produce
approx. 140 ice cubes within 24 hours.
Note:Ice production will vary due to
your water source temperature,
pressure and hardness.
The production volume of the ice
depends on the temperature in the
freezer. The lower the temperature the
more ice cubes produced.
After the appliance is turned on for the
very first time, it can take up to 10 hours
for the first ice cubes to drop out of the
ice cube maker and collect in the
container.Once the ice cube container is full, the
ice cube maker switches off
automatically.
Do not use the ice cube container
for rapid cooling of food or drinks.
The ice cube maker may become
blocked and be damaged.
Do not use the first three containers
of ice cubes from the ice cube
maker.
Discard the ice produced in the first
24 hours after switching on the ice
cube maker.
This applies for the very first use,
and whenever the appliance has
been out of service for an extended
period of time.
The amount of ice cubes produced
depends on the temperature in the
freezer section. The lower the
temperature, the more ice cubes will be
produced in a given period of time.
Turning off the ice cube maker
The water supply line must be shut
off several hours before the
appliance or ice cube maker is
switched off.

Touch the sensor button for the ice
cube maker so that it turns white.

							Refrigerator section and
SmartFresh drawers
The refrigerator and SmartFresh
drawers defrost automatically.
During normal operation, condensate
and frost can form on the rear wall of
the refrigerator and drawers.
You do not need to remove this
build-up, it will defrost and evaporate
automatically with the heat generated
by the appliance.
Freezer section
The freezer section defrosts
automatically.
The moisture generated in the
appliance collects in the evaporator. It
is automatically defrosted and
dissipated by the condenser
periodically.
This automatic defrosting system
enables the freezer to remain
permanently ice-free, while ensuring
that the food stored in the freezer stays
frozen.
