1. Please only use drinking water to

produce ice cubes. Do not use any additives, flavourings or similar items, such items can contami- nate the appliance. The water used should not be cooler than 7°C and it should not be warmer than 35°C. In addition, you obtain the best results when the appli- ance is working in an ambient temperature of 15°C to maximum 38°C.

2. Tip: As a rule the appliance pro-

duces slightly opaque ice cubes, which however does not impair the quality of the ice cubes. This is due to the especially fast freez- ing process. To get crystal clear ice cubes, use drinking water, which has been boiled and cooled beforehand. DRAINING WATER

1. To drain the water from the appli-

ance, please proceed as follows: Switch off the appliance and unplug it from the electrical outlet.

2. Hold the appliance over a suffi-

ciently large bowl or the kitchen sink or place it on the edge of the countertop.

3. Remove the cap on the

residual water drain (5) on the rear of the appliance by turning it counter clockwise.

4. Wait until the water has drained

completely from the appliance and then seal the water drain again.

5. In this process make sure not to

tilt the appliance too far, to pre- vent damage to the compressor.30

1. Caution: Do not use the first ice

cubes that have been produced with the appliance. Dispose of these ice cubes; they may contain production residues.

2. Prepare the appliance as

described in the section “Before using the appliance the first time”.

3. Remove the ice container (4)

from the appliance by pulling it forward.

8. Press the On button to start

making ice cubes immediately. If you have activated the timer, you do not need to press any button; the appliance will start automatically at the specified time.

9. The appliance starts to make ice

cubes. The first ice cubes that are made do not have the selected size, since it takes several minutes before the appliance reaches the right operating temperature. Therefore, the first ice cubes are somewhat smaller.

10. If the pump in the appliance

should not transport any water for a longer period of time, switch off the appliance, and allow a few drops of water to drip out via the residual drain. Then restart the process.

11. Depending on water and ambient

temperature the ice cubes will be ready in approx. 6 to 18 minutes. Note: At the beginning of ice cube making process, for technical reasons the ice cubes are still small and of different sizes.

12. You can interrupt the making of

ice cubes any time by pressing the „OFF“ button.

13. If you have programmed the

appliance via the timer, you do not need to press any button, the31 appliance stops making ice cubes automatically at the set time.

14. Caution: If you interrupt the

process, the excess water runs back into the water tank. The ice cubes that are still attached to the cooling linkage will drop off into the ice container after a while, and can then be taken out.

15. When the ice container is full this

symbol (8) lights up and a signal tone sounds.

17. Remove the ice container and

empty it. Insert the ice container back into the appliance. Please note that you must hold the ice container slightly slanted when inserting it in the appliance.

19. In addition, the ice cube maker

automatically checks the water level in the water tank. If the water level is too low, this symbol (9) lights up:

20. The appliance automatically stops

making ice cubes. Top up water as described above; in this process pay attention to the MAX mark and do not overfill the appliance.

the water tank is blocked due to overly-large ice cubes. Switch off the appliance and wait until the ice cubes have melted slightly. Then proceed with production of the ice cubes (however, wait at least 3 minutes before proceeding, to prevent appliance damage).

23. Please remember not to leave the

ice cubes in the ice container too long, since they will melt. If you do not wish to use the ice cubes right away, you can store them in the freezer.

24. After use, please leave the ice

cube maker open to prevent the formation of mould or bacteria. The water must be changed af- ter 24 hours at the latest, for reasons of hygiene.32
