shines.
u
Push in the drawer.
Note
u
The IceMaker produces ice cubes only if the drawer is fully
closed.
Producing ice cubes*
The production capacity depends on the freezer temperature.
The lower the temperature, the more ice cubes can be
produced in a specific period.
The ice cubes drop from the IceMaker into the drawer. When a
certain filling level has been reached, no further ice cubes are
produced. The IceMaker does not fill the drawer right up to the
brim.
If large quantities of ice cubes are needed, the complete
IceMaker drawer can be exchanged for the adjacent drawer.
When the drawer is closed, the IceMaker automatically re-
commences production.
Once the IceMaker has been switched on for the first time, it
may take up to 24 hours until the first ice cubes are produced.
Note
When the appliance is used for the first time and if it has been
out of use for a long time, particles may collect in the IceMaker
and/or water conduit.
u
Therefore do not use or consume the ice cubes made in the
first 24 hours.
Switching off the IceMaker*
If no ice cubes are needed, the IceMaker can be switched off
independently of the freezer compartment.
When the IceMaker is switched off, the IceMaker drawer can
also be used for freezing and storing food.
u
Press the On/Off button for about 1 second until the LED
goes out.
u
Clean the IceMaker.
w
This ensures that no water or ice remains in the IceMaker.
6 Maintenance
6.1 Manual defrosting*
The refrigerator compartment is defrosted automatically.
The defrost water evaporates as a result of the heat of the
compressor. Drops of water on the rear wall are perfectly
normal.
u
Regularly clean the drain opening to allow the water to flow
away (see 6.3) .
A layer of frost or ice can build up in the freezer compartment
after a long period of operation.
The layer of frost or ice builds up faster if the appliance is
opened often or if the food is warm when placed inside.
However, a thick layer of ice will increase the appliance‘s
energy consumption. You should therefore defrost the appli-
ance regularly.
CAUTION
Risk of injury and damage as a result of hot steam!
u
Do not use electric heaters or steam cleaners, naked flames
or defrosting sprays for defrosting.
u
Do not remove ice using sharp instruments.
u
Switch on SuperFrost one day before defrosting.
w

w
If the temperature display does not go out, the child lock
function (see 5.2) is active.
u
Pull out the power plug or switch off the fuse.
u
Place cold storage accumulators on top of the frozen food.
u
If possible, put the frozen goods in the freezer drawer,
wrapped in newspaper or a blanket, and store in a cool
place.

Place a pan with hot, not boiling
water on a middle shelf.
-or-
