Using the Icemaker & Water Dispenser
How the icemaker works
•
In every cycle 8 ice cubes are produced.
•
Capacity of the icemaker depends on the freezer
temperature, the ambient temperature of the
environment around the appliance and how often the
freezer door is opened.
•
Do not store ice cubes which are produced during the
first batch of cubes following appliance start up, or
after a prolonged break. Discard these cubes.
•
To ensure that the ice cube tray is filled to maximum
capacity, you will need to manually arrange the ice
cubes periodically.
•
Some ice cubes may stick together when dropped into
the storage box – you will need to separate these to
ensure maximum use of the ice box.
First use of the icemaker / water dispenser
Do not consume the first seven (approx) glasses of water as
there may be dust and / or impurities within the water pipes.
This will ensure that the pipes are cleared. If in doubt, keep
re-using the dispenser until the water runs clear.
Noises during ice making
The ice making process can be noisy. You may hear ice
being dropped into the storage compartment. This is
perfectly normal.
Storing ice for extended periods
Ice which is stored for a long period of time may go an
opaque colour and have a strange odour. We recommend
that you dispose of this ice, remove and clean the ice box.
Allow the tray to dry thoroughly and cool down before
replacing into the appliance to prevent ice from sticking.
