USING YOUR WATER DISPENSER/ICE MAKER – ICE & WATER
First use of the ice maker/water dispenser
Check your refrigerator is switched on and has been cooling for at least 2hours before
use (refer to page21 – The temperature of your refrigerator and freezer).
Check that the water isolation tap has been connected and turned on.
Press dispenser pad and discard the first 3L of water, stopping intermittently to remove
trapped air in the system. Failure to do this will result in excessive dripping from your
dispenser. This will make sure that the pipes are cleared. If in doubt, keep re-using the
dispenser until the water runs clear.
Please discard the first few batches of ice after start up.
Note: the first time the water dispenser is used, there will be a 1–2 minute delay while
the tank fills, before water is dispensed.
Storing ice for extended periods
Storing ice for long periods of time can effect its appearance and odour. We recommend
that you dispose of any ice which has been stored for extended periods and remove and
clean the icebox. Allow the ice box to dry thoroughly and cool down before replacing
into the appliance to prevent ice from sticking to the bin.

Repeat on the other end of the filter.
To fit the new filter insert the water tube at the inlet end of the filter, secure with locking

ImpORTANT
To avoid serious illness or death, do not use water of unsafe or of unknown quality.
The water filter cartridge needs to be changed when the Filter icon appears on the
interface panel or after 6 months of use.
If the water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter cartridge.
Filter replacement is the consumer’s responsibility and will not be covered by the
warranty except in the case of faulty parts or materials within the filter cartridge.
If the water has not been dispensed for some time or has an unpleasant taste or
odour, flush 10 L of water through the system. If unpleasant taste or odour persists, fit
a new filter cartridge.
