1 IMPORTANT ADVICE AND
RECOMMENDATIONS
This Instruction Manual forms an integral part
of the automatic ice-cube maker (also more
simply called “appliance” in the text) and must
be kept for possible future consultation.
In the event of the appliance being sold or
transferred to another person, this Manual must be
handed over to the new user, in order to enable him
to become familiar with the operation of the
equipment and the corresponding advice and
recommendations.
Before installing and using the appliance,
read the advice and recommendations
contained in this Instruction Manual very
carefully. They are given in order to ensure safe
installation, use and maintenance of the
appliance.
Any specific information or diagrams regarding
particular models will be attached to this Instruction
Manual.
Do not remove any of the panels or grilles.
Open and close the door carefully without
slamming it.
Do not rest objects on the appliance or in
front of the ventilation grilles.
Always lift the appliance to move it. Do
not push or pull it.
Always remove the plug from the power
socket before proceeding with any
cleaning or maintenance operations.
Any use of the appliance other than for the
production of ice cubes using cold drinking
water is to be considered as improper use.
Do not use the ice-cube container to cool or
preserve food or drinks, as these operations
could cause the drainage system to become
clogged, thus leading to the container filling up
and water leaking out.
Do not obstruct the ventilation and heat-
dissipation grilles, since poor aeration –
in addition to reducing efficiency and
causing poor operation – may also cause
serious damage to the appliance.
