7. ACTIVATING AND USING THE ICE MAKER
7.1 Activating and using the Ice Maker
Note
> If the ice is not used frequently, is advisable
to empty the ice bin once every 8-10 days.
It is normal for some ice cubes to stick to
one another. If the ice is not frequently used,
the older cubes can become opaque, will
have a strange flavour and become smaller.
> The Ice Maker automatically switches off
if the Vacation function is activated.
When the Ice Maker 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 and filter cleaning cycle.
> The Ice Maker produces ice if the FlexMode
compartment is set to Freezer mode.
Warning
The ice maker will continue to operate
even if the ice bin is not in position.
To activate the Ice Maker after the appliance is
installed, touch the Function icon and then the Ice
Maker icon within Functions .
Please note that 12 to 24 hours are required before
ice production can begin.
The production is 10 cubes per cycle, with
approximately 10 cycles every 24 hours
The yield depends on the temperature set in
the freezer, the ambient temperature and how
frequently the door is opened.
If the appliance is operating without being connected
to the water system, make sure that the Ice Maker
is deactivated by touching the icon.
The Ice Maker produces ice until the ice tray is full
and will automatically stop once the maximum
level is reached.
With the Super Ice function, it is possible to
increase the quantity of ice produced every 24
hours, while the Set Cube Size function allows
you to select the size of the ice cubes produced.

Do the ice cubes have an unusual odour?
Ice is a porous material which can absorb odours
from its surrounding environment. Ice cubes which
have been in the ice cube container for a long time
may absorb odours, stick together and slowly
become smaller.
We recommend that old ice cubes not be used.
Other means of preventing odours:
>
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 it out and wipe it 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or out-of-date food.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 odours from accumulating.
>
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.
Operating noises
Normal noises
>
Hum: The refrigerator unit is running. The fan in
the air recirculation 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.
The appliance is powered by two
independent compressors. It is therefore
normal to always have one of the two
compressors in operation.
Warning
Do not place any bottles or food in the
ice cube container for rapid cooling. The
ice maker may become blocked and be
damaged.
