First use
When the ice and water dispenser is used for the
first time, the first ice cubes and water coming out
of the dispenser may have an unpleasant taste and
should therefore be discarded.
To dispense water:
Water delivery is always available. Press a glass
against the water dispenser lever. Water delivery
stops when the lever is released.
To dispense ice:
To obtain ice press against the ice dispenser lever.
Useful tips:
1. Keep the glass near the dispenser outlet.
2. Press lightly on the lever to activate the ice
dispenser. Pressing hard will not result in faster
dispensing or greater quantities.
3. To stop dispensing, remove the glass slowly so
that ice does not fall outside the glass.
4. Do not use fragile glasses.
Using the ice and water dispenser
Using the automatic ice-maker
After switching on the refrigerator, it usually takes
overnight for the first ice cubes to form. When
selecting crushed ice, the cubes are crushed just
before being dispensed, therefore the crushed ice
may come out with a slight delay. Noise from the
ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in
size. When changing from crushed ice to ice cubes,
a small amount of crushed ice may come out
together with the first cubes.
The quantity and size of the ice cubes depend on
the mains water pressure. Ice cubes production
can be increased by decreasing the temperature on
the freezer compartment.
ONLY FOR MODELS FITTED WITH ICE
DISPENSER
Normal ice production consists of about 12 to 14
batches of ice cubes in a 24-hour period.
To remove and replace the ice container
Insert your fingers in the opening at the bottom of
the container, pull the lever and lift and extract the
container.
For some models, to remove the container insert
your fingers in the opening at the bottom of the
container, place your thumb on the release button
and lift at the same time.
To replace the ice container in its place, place it on
its support attached to the inner door and lower in
position.
Note: Large amounts of ice cubes should be taken
directly from the bucket, and not from the
dispenser.
