Activation and use of the Ice Maker
Activation and use of the Ice Maker
If the ice is not used frequently is advisable to
empty the ice bin once every 8-10 days.
It is normal that some ice cubes stick to one
another. If the ice is not frequently used, the
older cubes can become opaque, and will
have a strange flavor and become smaller.
The Icemaker automatically deactivates if the
Vacation function is activated.
When the Icemaker is started for the first time,
it is recommended to dispose of the first full
bin of ice.
If the equipment has been switched off for a
month or more, it is recommended to perform
a water cleaning cycle. (See section 5: Set-
tings and Special Functions).
The ice maker will only produce ice with the
TriAction compartment set to Freezer Mode.
The ice maker will continue to operate even
when the ice bin is not in position.
To activate the Ice Maker after installation of the appliance, press the
Icemaker button .
Please note that 12 to 24 hours are necessary before ice production
may begin. The production is of 10 cubes per cycle in approximately
10 cycles in 24 hours.
The yield depends on the temperature set in the freezer, the room
temperature and the frequency of door opening.
If the appliance is operating without being connected to the water
system, make sure that the Icemaker is deactivated by pressing the
button .
The Ice Maker produces ice until the ice tray is full and will automati-
cally stop once the maximum level is reached.
With the SuperIce function, it is possible to increase the quantity of ice
produced a 24 hours, while the Set Cube Size function permits selec-
tion of the size of the produced ice cubes.
At factory default settings Ice Maker can produce approx. 100 ice
cubes within 24 hours.
Ice is a porous material which can absorb odors from the environment.
Ice cubes which have been in the ice cube container for a long time
may absorb odors, stick together and slowly become smaller.
We recommend that old ice cubes not be used.
Other means of preventing odors:
The ice cube container should be cleaned occasionally with warm
water. Make sure that you switch off the ice maker before clearing the
container. Rinse out and wipe dry.
Check the contents of the freezer for spoiled or out-of-date food.
All odorous foods should be wrapped thoroughly or stored in airtight
containers to prevent the build-up of odors.
The water filter may have to be replaced in some models.
In some cases the quality of the water connection in the house
should be checked.
Grumbling: refrigerating unit is running. Fan in the recirculating air
system is running.
Bubbling, humming or gurgling noises: refrigerant is flowing through
the tubes.
Clicking: motor is switching on or off. Solenoid valve on the water
connection is opening/closing.
Rumbling: ice cubes are falling into the ice cube container.
Note: the appliance is powered by two independent compressors.
It is therefore normal to always have one of two compressors in opera-
tion.
Do the ice cubes have an unusual odor?
Operating noises
Quite normal noises
Do not place any bottles or food for rapid cool-
ing in the ice cube container. The ice maker may
become blocked and be damaged.
