Risk of electric shock!

The appliance must only be switched on when it has been installed in accordance with the installation instructions.

Ground the appliance.

The appliance must not be grounded via a gas pipe.

If in doubt, have a suitably qualified and experienced electrician check that the installation complies with relevant regulations.

Do not install a fuse into neutral current or grounding electrical circuit.

Do not use extension cords or un-grounded (two prong) adapters.

Do not use a frayed or damaged power cord.

Risk of electric shock!

For protection against electric shock, this appliance is equipped with a pole-free plug which is protected against reverse polarity. The electrical outlet must be properly grounded.

Do not remove the round grounding connector pin from the plug.

Use only a grounded plug adapter.

Wait for 1 hour after installation before plugging the appliance into the power supply. This allows coolant and refrigerator oil to settle in accordance with regulations.

Ensure that the voltage of the power supply corresponds with the connection voltage of the appliance. A power supply of 110–120 V, 60 Hz and 10–16 Amp, which is protected by a power switch or a fuse, is required to operate the appliance.

The manufacturer recommends operating the appliance on a dedicated circuit to avoid overloading the electrical circuit.

All relevant legal electrical, fire, and building regulations must be observed when installing the electrical outlet and/or the appliance.

In certain countries, appliances are required to be connected to the electrical supply via a wall-mounted ON/OFF switch.

To avoid the risk of fire, electric shock, or other injuries, the appliance must be installed and connected by a suitably qualified electrician in accordance with all relevant local and national regulations and standards, including fire prevention.

The socket must not be concealed behind the appliance and must be easily accessible so that the appliance can be quickly disconnected from the electrical supply in case of an emergency.

If the outlet is no longer accessible after installation, an additional means of disconnection must be provided for all poles. Suitable means of disconnection include switches with an all-pole disconnect device with a contact opening of at least 1/8" (3 mm). These can be circuit breakers, fuses, and relays.

The plug and power cord must not come into contact with the back of the appliance as vibrations can cause damage to these components. This could result in a short circuit.

Do not plug other appliances into electrical outlet behind this appliance.

Do not connect the appliance to a stand-alone inverter such as those used with an autonomous energy source e.g., solar power.

When the appliance is turned on, power surges could result in a safety switch-off. This can damage the electronics. The appliance must not be used with so-called energy saving devices either. These reduce the amount of energy supplied to the appliance, causing it to overheat.

If the power cord needs to be replaced, this must be performed by a qualified technician.

Connecting the appliance

It is very important to set the correct temperature for storing food in the appliance. Bacteria will cause food which is not stored at the correct temperature to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influences the growth rate of these bacteria. Reducing the temperature reduces their growth rate.

To freeze fresh food and to store frozen food for a long time, a temperature of 0^ F ( -18^ C) is required. At this temperature the growth of bacteria is generally halted. As soon as the temperature rises above 14^ F ( -10^ C), the bacteria become active in the food again so it cannot be kept as long. For this reason, partially defrosted or defrosted food must not be re-frozen. Food may be re-frozen once it has been cooked, as the high temperatures achieved when cooking destroy most bacteria.

The temperature in the appliance will rise:

– the more often the door is opened and the longer it is kept open,
– the more food that is stored in it,
– the warmer the food is which is being put into it,
- and the higher the ambient temperature surrounding it. The appliance is designed for use within specific ambient temperatures (climate range). Do not use in ambient temperatures for which it is not designed.

Setting the temperature

■ Touch the ⏻ symbol for setting the temperature.

The previously set temperature will appear.

• Set the temperature you want with the + and - sensor controls. Keeping your finger on the sensor control changes the temperature continuously.
  ■ Confirm the temperature setting with OK or wait approx. 8 seconds after the last touch of the sensor. This temperature will be automatically adopted.

Tip: The newly set temperature can also be confirmed and adopted by closing the appliance door.

The temperature display always shows the required temperature.

If you have adjusted the temperature, wait for approximately 6 hours if the appliance is not very full and for approximately 24 hours if the appliance is full before checking the temperature display. It will take this long for an accurate reading to be given.

■ If, after this time, the temperature is still too high or too low, adjust it again.

Temperature range

The temperature can be adjusted from 7^ F ( -14^ C) to -11^ F ( -24^ C).

The ambient temperature in the room and the installation location can affect the time it takes for the appliance to reach the lowest temperature.

If the ambient temperature is too high, the appliance may not reach the lowest temperature.

SuperFrost function

For best results, turn on the SuperFrost function before putting fresh food into the freezer.

Fresh food will be frozen quickly, so that the nutritional value, vitamin content, appearance, and taste are maintained.

Exceptions:

• Placing food in the freezer that is already frozen.
• When freezing up to 4.4 lb (2 kg) kg fresh food daily.

Turning on SuperFrost

SuperFrost should be turned on 4–6 hours before placing food in the freezer. When freezing the maximum amount of food, the SuperFrost function should be switched on 24 hours beforehand.

■ Touch the 🔊 symbol for setting the temperature.
■ Then touch the ⚙ symbol for turning on the SuperFrost function.

The ⚙ symbol is highlighted in color and the newly set temperature value of -22^ (-30°C) appears in the display.

■ Confirm the setting with OK or wait approx. 8 seconds after the last press of the button. The setting will be automatically adopted.

The ⚙ symbol is now illuminated in the display.

The appliance will now run at maximum power.

Turning off SuperFrost

■ Touch the ⏻ symbol for setting the temperature.

The ⚙ symbol is highlighted in color and the temperature value of -22^ (-30°C) is shown in the display.

■ Touch the ⚙ symbol for turning off the SuperFrost function.

The ⚙ symbol is no longer highlighted in color and the previous temperature setting appears again in the display.

■ Confirm the setting with OK or wait approx. 8 seconds after the last press of the button. The setting will be automatically adopted.

The ⚙ symbol disappears from the temperature display.

The appliance will then continue running at normal power.

If you do not turn off the SuperFrost function, it will turn itself off automatically after approx. 54 hours. The quantity of fresh food placed in the freezer will determine the duration before the SuperFrost function turns off. The appliance will then run at normal power again.

Tip: To save energy, you can manually switch off the SuperFrost function once the freezer reaches a constant temperature of 0^ F ( -18^ C) or colder. Monitor the temperature in the freezer.

The appliance has been fitted with a warning system which ensures that the temperature in the freezer cannot rise unnoticed and to avoid energy being wasted if the door is left open.

Temperature alarm

The Freezer temperature too high. Max. temperature °C message appears in the display if the temperature in the Freezer Zone becomes too warm. An alarm will also sound.

The temperature display will show the highest temperature that was reached during the time the temperature rose.

The audio and visual signals are triggered, for example:

• When the appliance is switched on and the temperature in the appliance differs greatly from the set temperature
• If a lot of warm room air enters the freezer when food is being loaded, rearranged, or taken out
• When freezing large amounts of food at once
• When freezing fresh food which is still warm
  – After an extended power failure

The alarm will be silenced and the fault message in the display will go out as soon as the reason for the alarm has been resolved.

If the temperature remains above 0^ F ( -18^ C) for a long time, check that the frozen food has not started to defrost. If it has, use the food as soon as possible or cook it before freezing it again.

Turning the temperature alarm off early

If the alarm disturbs you, it can be turned off early.

■ Touch the OK sensor button in the display.

Always observe USDA food safety guidelines.

Risk of fire from electrical appli-

Operating electrical devices in the appliance can cause sparks to form. Do not operate any electrical devices inside the appliance.

Maximum freezing capacity

To ensure that fresh food placed in the freezer freezes through to the core as quickly as possible, the maximum freezing capacity must not be exceeded. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a 24-hour period is given on the data plate: “Freezing capacity ....lbs/24 hrs.”

What happens when you freeze fresh food?

Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible so that the nutritional value of the food, its vitamin content, appearance and flavor are maintained.

Food which takes a long time to freeze will lose more water from its cells, which then shrink. During the defrosting process, only some of this water is re-absorbed by the cells. What this means in practice is that the food loses more moisture. You can see this in the large amount of water that collects around the food when it defrosts.

If food is frozen quickly, the cells have less time to lose moisture, so they shrink less. As there is not so much moisture loss, it is easier for the food to reabsorb it during the defrosting process, and very little water collects around the defrosted food.

Storing frozen food

Never re-freeze partially or fully defrosted food. Defrosted food may only be re-frozen after it has been cooked.

When buying frozen food to store in your freezer, make sure to check:

– that the packaging is not damaged,

– the expiration date and

– the temperature at which the frozen food is being stored in the store.

The length of time food can be kept is reduced if it has been stored at a temperature warmer than 0^ F ( -18^ C).

■ Buy frozen food at the very end of your shopping trip.

■ Store it in the freezer compartment as soon as possible.

Home freezing

Only freeze food that is fresh and in good condition.

Tips for home freezing

• The following types of food are suitable for home freezing:
  fresh meat, poultry, game, fish, vegetables, herbs, fresh fruit, dairy products, baked goods, leftovers, egg yolks, egg whites, and a range of pre-cooked meals.
• The following types of food are not suitable for freezing:
  lettuce, radishes, sour cream, mayonnaise, whole eggs in their shells, onions, whole raw apples and pears.
• To retain color, taste, aroma, and vitamin C, vegetables should be blanched before they are frozen. To do so, place them portion by portion into boiling water for 2–3 minutes. Then, remove and plunge the vegetables into ice-cold water to cool quickly. Leave the vegetables to drain.
• Lean meat freezes better than fatty meat and can be stored for considerably longer.
• Separate chops, steaks, cutlets, etc. with a sheet of plastic freezer film. to prevent them from freezing together in a block.
• Do not season raw food or blanched vegetables with herbs or salt before freezing. Cooked food should only be lightly seasoned. The flavor of some herbs intensifies when frozen.

- Placing hot food or drink in the freezer causes food that is already frozen to partially thaw and increases energy consumption. Allow hot food and drink to cool down before placing it in the freezer.

Packaging food for freezing

■ Freeze food in portions.

- Suitable packaging

- Plastic films

- Freezer bags

- Aluminum foil

- Freezer containers

- Unsuitable packaging

- Packing paper

- Parchment paper

- Cellophane

- Garbage bags

- Plastic shopping bags

■ Remove as much air as possible from the packaging before sealing.

■ Close the packaging tightly with

- rubber bands,

- bag clips,

- string or bag ties, or

- freezer tape.

Tip: Freezer bags and poly tubing may also be sealed using home heat sealing kits.

■ Label the packaging with the contents and the date of freezing.

Before placing food in the freezer

- When freezing more than 4.4 lb (2 kg) of fresh food, switch on the Super-Frost function some time before placing the food in the freezer (see “SuperFrost”).

This helps food which is already stored in the freezer to stay frozen.

Placing food in the Freezer Zone

Food to be frozen can be placed anywhere in the Freezer Zone, preferably in the lowest freezer basket.

Place large quantities of food in the large freezer basket.

■ Place the frozen goods flat in the bottom of the basket so that it freezes through to the core as quickly as possible.
■ Ensure that the packaging and containers are dry to prevent them from freezing together or to the walls.
■ Please follow the guidelines in the table below regarding recommended weights for the baskets:

	Upper freezer basket	Lower freezer basket
F 24x1 Vi/SF 2	6.5 lb(12 kg)	26.5 lb(12 kg)
F 26x1 Vi/SF 4	44 lb(20 kg)	44 lb(20 kg)

Unfrozen food should not touch frozen food, as this will cause the frozen food to begin to thaw.

Storage time for frozen food

The storage life of food is very variable, even at a constant temperature of 0^ F ( -18^ C). Decomposition processes also take place in frozen food, albeit at a very reduced speed. Fat can become rancid from contact with oxygen in the air, for example. This is why lean meat can be stored approx. twice as long as fatty meat.

The storage times quoted are guide values for the storage life of different food groups in the Freezer Zone.

Food group Storage	time(Months)
Ice cream 2 to 6
Bread, baked goods 2 to 6
Cheese 2 to 4
Fish, oily 1 to 2
Fish, lean 1 to 5
Sausage, ham 1 to 3
Game, pork 1 to 12
Poultry, beef 2 to 10
Vegetables, fruit 6 to 18
Herbs 6 to 10

Where the storage time given on the packaging differs, follow the advice on the packaging.

Defrosting frozen goods

Never re-freeze partially or fully defrosted food. Defrosted food may only be re-frozen after it has been cooked.

Frozen food can be defrosted in different ways:

• In a microwave
• In an oven using “Convection” or the “Defrost” setting
• At room temperature
• In the Fridge Zone (the cold given off by the frozen food helps to keep the other food cold)
• In a steam oven

Flat pieces of partially thawed meat or fish can be placed directly into a hot skillet.

Meat and poultry (e.g., hamburgers, chicken, fish) should not come into contact with other foods while defrosting. Catch the defrosting liquid and dispose of it carefully.

Fruit can be thawed at room temperature, either in the packaging or in a covered bowl.

Most vegetables can be cooked while still frozen. Just put straight into boiling water or hot grease. The cooking time is slightly less than that of fresh vegetables due to changes in the cell structure.

Cooling drinks quickly

When chilling drinks in the freezer, make sure that bottles are not left in for more than one hour. Otherwise they could burst.

Operating the Ice/Water dispenser

The Ice/Water dispenser requires a plumbed-water connection in order for it to operate (see “Plumbed-water connection”).

If you do not dispense chilled water or ice from the Ice/Water dispenser for a longer period of time, the water/ice may be stale. Regularly dispense water/ice in order to achieve the best water quality.

⚠️ Risk of injury from glass splinters!

Use a sturdy container for collecting water and ice cubes.

⚠️ Risk of injury due to incorrect handling.

Do not hold your hands under the ice/water dispenser.

⚠️ Risk of injury due to incorrect handling.

Never reach into the spout opening of the Ice Maker.

⚠️ Health risk due to contaminated water.

The first 5 glasses of chilled water as well as the first 30–40 ice cubes made after the Ice/Water dispenser is started up must not be consumed, as the water will have been used for the initial rinse through the water supply line.

This applies to the initial commissioning as well as when using the appliance again after it has been turned off for a long while.

Do not place bottles or similar items in the ice-cube container. The Ice Maker could become blocked and, as a result, be damaged.

If the Ice/Water dispenser is not used again within 2 minutes or if the appliance door is opened, the Ice/Water dispenser will switch to standby mode automatically and the lighting will go out.

After it has been activated again, it can take a few seconds before chilled water and ice is dispensed again.

Switching on the Ice/Water dispenser

■ Make sure that the ice-cube tray is correctly located underneath the Ice Maker.

Ice cubes can only be made when the ice-cube tray is completely closed.

■ In settings mode ⚙, use the < and > arrow buttons to select Ice Maker and select OK to confirm your selection.
■ Use the < and > arrow buttons to select On and touch OK to confirm your selection.
■ Close the appliance door.

The Ice/Water dispenser is now ready for operation.

All sensor controls in the Ice/Water-dispenser control panel should now be highlighted in white.

If this is not the case, the system lock has been activated (the 🔒 sensor control will be highlighted in yellow, see "System lock").

Once the Freezer Zone has cooled down to its set temperature, the Ice Maker will fill with water.

As soon as the water is frozen, the ice cubes drop out of the Ice Maker into the ice-cube tray.

Ice-cube production is halted automatically as soon as the ice-cube tray is full.

After initial commissioning, it might take up to 24 hours until the first ice cubes can be dispensed.

If the 🔒 sensor control is flashing, the drip tray needs to be emptied (see "Cleaning and care"). Dispensing is stopped automatically.

After the appliance door has opened and closed, it can take several seconds until the Ice/Water dispenser is ready for operation and the sensor controls can be selected again.

Dispensing chilled water

After the initial commissioning, there may be air in the water circuit. Dispense water until there are no more air bubbles.

If you dispense chilled water again after a longer period of time, it may be stale. In this case, pour out the first 15 glasses of water.

■ Place a sturdy container under the Ice/Water dispenser.

■ Press and hold the sensor control for ice cubes or crushed ice.

Ice will be dispensed from the spout as long as the sensor control is pressed. After approx. 30 seconds, dispensing is ended automatically. Wait 5 seconds and press the sensor control again if you wish to dispense more ice.

■ Take your finger off the sensor control when the container is almost full. Otherwise it will overfill or the ice will block the spout.

The Ice Maker can make up to approx. 1.3 kg of ice cubes in 24 hours.

The amount of ice cubes made by the machine depends on the temperature in the Freezer Zone. The lower the temperature, the more ice cubes are produced within a given time.

Empty and clean the ice-cube tray at regular intervals, or at least if you have not produced any ice for more than a week (see “Cleaning and care”).

This will ensure that you always have fresh ice and the ice cubes will not form a clump.

Switching the Ice/Water dispenser off

■ Close the shut-off valve in the water supply line (approx. 3 hours before switching off the appliance to avoid the build-up of mould caused by stagnant water).
■ In settings mode ⚙, use the < and > arrow buttons to select Ice Maker and select OK to confirm your selection.

WARNING! DANGER of injury

and damage!

Do not use any mechanical or other types of aids which are not recommended by the manufacturer to accelerate the defrosting process.

The appliance is equipped with a "NoFrost" system. The freezer defrosts automatically.

The moisture generated in the appli- ance collects on the condenser and is automatically defrosted and evaporates periodically.

This automatic defrosting system enables the Freezer Zone to remain permanently ice-free. However, the food stored in the freezer will not defrost.

WARNING! DANGER of electric

Unplug the appliance or trip the circuit breaker.

WARNING! Fire hazard!

Do not damage the coolant pipework.

Do not let water get into the electronic unit or the lighting.

Do not use a steam cleaner. Steam from a steam cleaning appliance could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

The data plate located inside the appliance must not be removed. It contains information which is required in the event of a service call.

Cleaning agents

To avoid damaging the surfaces of your appliance, do not use

• cleaning products containing soda, ammonia, acid, or chloride,
  – lime scale removers,
• abrasive cleaning products, such as scouring powder, scouring liquid, or pumice stones,
  – cleaners containing solvents,
• stainless steel cleaners,
• dishwasher detergent,
• oven sprays,
• glass cleaning agents,
  – hard, abrasive sponges and brushes, such as pot scrubbers,
• eraser sponges,
• sharp metal scrapers.

Cleaning and conditioning agents used inside the appliance must be food safe.

Use warm water and liquid dish soap.

The following pages contain important information on cleaning.

The drip tray cover, spout, back, and frame of the ice/water dispenser are finished with a high-quality surface coating. This is resistant to soiling and is very easy to clean.

Do not treat the drip tray cover, spout, back, and frame of the ice/water dispenser with

– Stainless steel cleaning agent:

This will damage the finish.

- Miele conditioning agents for stainless steel:

This will cause noticeable smearing.

Do not clean the drip tray cover and spout of the ice/water dispenser in the dishwasher, as it will damage the finish.

Do not attach any magnets. The surface is easily scratched.

Do not use sticky notes, transparent adhesive tape, masking tape, or other types of adhesive on the finished surface. These damage the finish, causing it to lose its dirt-repellent protective coating.

Before cleaning the appliance

■ Turn the appliance off completely by pressing the On/Off switch.

■ Unplug the appliance or switch off the fuse.

■ Take any food out of the appliance and store it in a cool place.

■ Take out all other removable parts for cleaning (see “Adjusting the interior fittings”).

■ Clean the appliance with a solution of lukewarm water and liquid dish soap. Rinse all parts by hand. Do not wash in a dishwasher.
■ After cleaning, wipe with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
■ Leave the door open to air the appliance sufficiently for a short while and to prevent odor buildup.

Aluminum frames

The frames to the shelves inside the appliance and the door shelves are partially made from aluminum.

Aluminum is a dynamic material. The reflection and appearance of aluminum changes in different lights and environments and depending on the angle you observe it from. It is also susceptible to scratching.

The aluminum frames may become discolored or damaged if soiling is left on for too long. Remove any soiling immediately.

Cleaning and emptying the ice-cube container

Clean the ice-cube container regularly. This ensures that fresh ice cubes are always produced.

Empty the ice-cube container on a regular basis. This prevents ice cubes from freezing together.

Danger of injury!

The ice-cube container is very heavy when filled. Pull it out using both hands.

■ Open the appliance door.

■ Lift the ice-cube container with both hands and pull it forwards to remove it from the appliance.
■ Empty it and rinse it with warm water.
■ Dry the container thoroughly so that new ice cubes will not freeze onto the surfaces.

■ To reinsert the ice-cube container, push it into the appliance until it clicks into position.
■ If you cannot push the container back in all the way, turn the screw conveyor inside a little.

Cleaning the drip tray

The drip tray catches excess water.

To avoid a build-up of odor, the drip tray should be cleaned every day.

■ Remove the drip-tray cover.
■ Remove the drip tray and clean it.
■ Dry the drip tray with a cloth.
- Replace the drip tray and the drip-tray cover.

Cleaning the door seal

Do not use any grease or oil on the door seal as these will cause the seal to deteriorate and become porous over time.

■ The door seal should be cleaned regularly with clean water and then wiped thoroughly dry with a soft cloth.

Cleaning the ventilation grilles

A build-up of dust will increase the energy consumption of the appliance.

■ The air vents should be cleaned on a regular basis with a brush or vacuum cleaner (you could use a Miele vacuum cleaner dusting brush, for example).

After cleaning

■ Replace all shelves and accessories in the appliance.
■ Reconnect to the power supply and switch the appliance back on.
■ Switch on the SuperFrost ⚙️ function for a while so that the Freezer Zone can cool down quickly.
■ Once the freezer has reached the required temperature, place the food back in the freezer baskets.
■ Switch off the SuperFrost ⚙ function as soon as the temperature in the Freezer Zone is a constant 0°F (-18°C) or colder.

With the help of the following guide minor faults in the performance of the machine, some of which may result from incorrect operation, can be remedied without contacting the Service Department.

This guide may help you to find the reason for the fault, and how to correct it.

To prevent cold from escaping, open the appliance doors as little as possible until the fault has been corrected.

Problem Possible cause	and solution

Any errors identified during the Self Test are shown on the display.■ Perform a Self Test (see “Additional settings”, section “Performing a Self Test ☑”).■ Contact Technical Service and inform them of the error message(s) on the display.
The appliance is not getting cold and the interior lighting does not come on when the appliance door is opened.	The appliance has not been turned on.■ Turn the appliance on. The temperature appears in the display.
	The plug is not properly plugged into the electrical outlet.■ Insert the plug into the outlet.
	The fuse has tripped. There could be a fault with the appliance, the household electrical wiring, or another appliance.■ Contact a technician or the Technical Service department.
The compressor is turning on more frequently and for longer periods of time; the temperature in the appliance is too low.	The ventilation gaps in the cabinetry have been covered or become too dusty.■ Do not block the ventilation gaps.■ Clean the ventilation gaps on a regular basis to remove any dust.
	The door has been opened too frequently, or a large amount of fresh food has been placed inside and/or frozen at the same time.■ Only open the door when necessary and for as short a time as possible.After a while, the temperature will return to normal by itself.
	The appliance door is not properly closed.A thick layer of ice may have already formed in the freezer.■ Close the appliance door.After a while, the temperature will return to normal by itself.If a thick layer of ice has already formed, this will affect cooling and increase energy consumption.■ Defrost the appliance and clean it.
	The ambient temperature is too high. The higher the ambient temperature, the longer the compressor has to run.■ See the “Installation location” section in the “Installation information”.
	The appliance was not properly installed in the niche.■ See the “Installation information” and “Building in the appliance” sections.
The compressor is turning on more frequently and for longer periods of time; the temperature in the appliance is too low.	The temperature setting is too low.■ Correct the temperature setting.
	A large amount of food was put in for freezing at once.■ See the information in the section on “Freezing and storing food”.
	The SuperFrost function is still turned on.■ To save energy, you can switch the SuperFrost function off early yourself.
The compressor comes on less and less often and for shorter periods of time. The temperature in the appliance rises.	This is not a fault. The temperature setting is too high.■ Correct the temperature setting.■ Check the temperature again after 24 hours.
	The food begins to thaw.The room temperature is too low for this appliance.If the room temperature is too low, the compressor will run less frequently. This may cause the freezer to become too warm.■ See the “Installation location” section in the “Installation information”.■ Increase the room temperature.
The door to the Freezer Zone will not open because it has been opened and closed too many times in succession.	This is not a fault. The suction caused by opening and closing the door is preventing the door from opening. Wait approx. 1 minute and then try again. It should now open without force.
The compressor runs continuously.	Not a fault. To save energy, the compressor runs at a lower speed when less cooling is required. This increases the compressor run time.
The temperature display shows 0°F (-18°C), although a higher temperature is set.	This is not a fault. When the ice maker is turned on and the ambient room temperature is also low (< + 0°F (-18°C)) the temperature is automatically adjusted to -0°F (-18°C). This guarantees that the ice maker functions efficiently.
