							The appliance is supplied with a stan
-
dard water filter (bypass cartridge) that
filters the main water supply for making
ice cubes.
This water filter can be replaced with an
active charcoal filter which improves
the taste and smell of ice cubes by
removing chlorine and other
substances from the incoming tap
water.
Additional water filters are available
from Miele.
It is important to change the water
filter regularly.
To avoid serious illness or death, do
not use water that is
microbiologically or chemically
unsafe or of unknown quality without
adequate disinfection or other
treatment before or after use of a
filter.Note:
–After installing a new water filter and
switching on the ice maker, discard
the first 24 hours worth of ice
production.
–If the ice maker has not been used
for a prolonged time discard any ice
cubes in the freezer, empty the
container and discard the ice
production of the next 24 hours.
–If the appliance or ice maker have
not been routinely used for several
weeks or months, or if the ice cubes
have an unpleasant odor, change
the water filter.
Water filter change indicator
The change indicator will appear
approx. every 6 months depending on
the quantity of ice produced.
–
When the filter indicator lights red,
this is an indication that a filter
change will soon be necessary.
New water filters (Bypass and Active
carbon filters) are available from
Miele.

When the filter indicator flashes red in
the display the filter must be
changed.
