Making ice cubes For the automatic ice cube maker to operate, it must be connected to a water supply (see "Installation - Water supply").  Risk to health due to contami- nated water. Consuming polluted water can lead to illnesses. The first 3 batches of ice cubes made after the ice cube maker is started up must not be consumed, as the water will have been used for the initial rinsing of 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. The Ice Maker can make up to 2.9 lb (1.3 kg) of ice cubes in 24 hours. The amount of ice cubes made by the appliance depends on the temperature in the freezer. The lower the temperature, the more ice cubes are produced. After the setting up the appliance for the first time, it can take up to 10 hours for the first ice cubes to drop out of the Ice Maker and collect in the tray. Do not place any bottles or food into the Ice Maker to chill them quickly. The Ice Maker could become blocked and, as a result, be damaged. Switching on Ice Maker  Make sure that the ice cube tray is correctly located underneath the Ice Maker.  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. 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. Empty the ice cube tray at regular intervals, or at least if you have not produced any ice for more than a week. This will ensure that you always have fresh ice and the ice cubes will not form a clump. Ice cube production does not stop when the ice cube tray has been removed. Ice cubes can fall into the freezer basket underneath. Only remove the ice cube tray for the shortest possible time or switch off the Ice Maker before removing it. 112

to illnesses.
The first 3 batches of ice cubes
made after the ice cube maker is
started up must not be consumed,
as the water will have been used for
the initial rinsing of the water supply
line.
This applies to the initial commis-
sioning as well as when using the
