Activation and use of the Ice Maker
Activation and use of the Ice Maker
Water Filter
To activate the Ice Maker after installation of the appliance, press the
Icemaker button
.
Please note that from 12 to 24 hours are necessary before ice can be
harvested. The production is of 10 cubes per cycle in approximately
10 cycles in 24 hours.
The yield depends on the temperature set in the freezer, the room
temperature and the frequency of door opening.
If the appliance is operating without being connected to the water
system, make sure that the Icemaker is deactivated by pressing the
button
.
The Ice Maker produces ice until the ice tray is full and will automati-
cally stop once the maximum level is reached.
With the SuperIce function, it is possible to increase the quantity of ice
produced a 24 hours, while the Set Cube Size function permits selec-
tion of the size of the produced ice cubes.
The Water Filter makes available high-quality water for the production
of ice cubes. It provides up to 3000 liters of water for a maximum time
of six months.
On the upper right of the command panel it is possible to monitor the
use status of the filter: when the entire area is lighted the filter has just
been replaced; the white lighted area indicates that the filter capaci-
ty is below 20%. When the filter is nearly expired the message “Replace
Filter Cartridge” will appear on the display.
The filter is located inside the refrigerator compartment, near the door
hinge, protected by a flap door. Prior to change the filter switch off the
Ice Maker by pressing the IceMaker button. Then enter the Fhiaba Ac-
cess Menu and set “Manual Clean” function. At the end of the cleaning
cycle remove the water from the ice tray and wipe it dry.
Press the front of the flap door to open it and carefully rotate the filter
cartridge for a quarter rotation in a counter clockwise direction until it de-
taches from its housing. It is normal for a small quantity of water to come
out. Remove the cap of the new cartridge and insert it into the housing
by gently rotating it for a quarter rotation in a clockwise direction until it
locks into place.
Filter Replacement
It is normal that some ice cubes stick to one an-
other. If the ice is not frequently used, the older
cubes can become opaque, and will have a
strange flavor and become smaller.
The Icemaker automatically deactivates if the
Vacation function is activated.
When the Icemaker is started for the first time, it
is recommended to empty the full ice tray of the
first ice cubes.
If the equipment has been switched off for a
month or more, it is recommended to performe a
water filter cleaning cycle.
