1. Take out the ice tray, fill
and reinsert.
2. When the ice cubes are frozen, turn the
knobs on the ice trays several times in
a clockwise direction and release.
The ice cubes are released and fall into
the container.
3. Take the ice cubes out of the container.
*The ice-cube maker can be attached to
the underside of one of the two shelves in
the freezer compartment on the left or
right* side.
* Not all models
Before cleaning the appliance, ALWAYS
pull out the mains plug or disconnect/
unscrew the fuse.
NEVER clean the appliance with a steam
or steam pressure cleaner. The hot steam
may damage the surface and the electrics.
– Risk of electric shock!
Cleaning water must NOT drip onto the
control fitting or light. Clean the whole
appliance, except the door seal, with tepid
water containing a mild, lightly disinfecting
cleaning agent, e.g. liquid soap. Abrasive
and acidic cleaning agents and chemical
solvents are NOT suitable.
Wipe the door seal with water only and then
dry thoroughly.
If possible, the heat exchanger (black grid)
at the back of the appliance should be
cleaned with a brush or vacuum cleaner
every two years. This will maintain the full
efficiency of the appliance and helps to save
electricity.
