Using the automatic ice maker (where provided)
After switching on the refrigerator, it usually takes overnight for the first ice cubes to form.
When selecting crushed ice (on some models only - see the Quick Start Guide), 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 freezer compartment temperature setting.
ONLY FOR MODELS FITTED WITH ICE DRAWER
Normal ice production is 7 to 8 batches of ice cubes over a 24 hour
period. Large amounts of ice cubes should be taken directly from the
bucket, and not from the dispenser. It is recommended that the drawer is
closed after completing the operation.
ONLY FOR MODELS FITTED WITH ICE DISPENSER
Normal ice production is 12 to 14 batches of ice cubes over a 24 hour
period.
To remove and refit the ice bucket
Insert your fingers in the opening at the bottom of
the container, pull the lever and lift and extract the
container (see figure 1). For some models, to
remove the container, insert your fingers in the
opening at the bottom of the container and place
your thumb on the release button (see figure 2);
holding the base of the bucket with both hands,
press the release button and lift the bucket up and
out.
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.
