proceed as follows:
•
Turn on the water supply tap 10 (Fig. 4).
•
Switch on the power supply by means of the
relative switch fitted during the installation
phase.
For automatic ice-cube makers that are connected
permanently to the electricity main, turn on by means
of the switch on the outside of the appliance, fitted
during the installation phase.
Start by pressing the relative switch (21 Fig. 9) which
will light up if provided with this function.

STARTING
UP
MODELS
WITH
CONTINUOUS DELIVERY (Fig. 10)
Carry out operations a) and b) described above;
then:
•
remove the plug (22) on the front grille panel;
•
using a screwdriver (23) turn the adjuster screws
of the timer clockwise until you hear a click and
the water pump stops;
•
repeat the previous operation three times
consecutively at intervals of one minute each;
•
when this operation has terminated, fit the plug
(22) back on the front grille; the appliance will
automatically start producing ice.
7 MAIN CAUSES OF OPERATING FAILURE
Should the appliance fail to produce ice, before
calling on the Authorized Technical Service Center,
first check carefully that:
•
the water supply tap (10, Fig. 4), fitted during
the installation phase, has been turned on.
•
electric power is reaching the appliance; the plug
is properly inserted, the corresponding switch
(9 Fig. 4) is in the "ON" position, and the push
button (21 Fig. 9) is lighted up.
Furthermore:
•
if there is excessive noise, make sure that the
appliance is not touching furniture or sheet metal
which can give rise to noise or vibrations;
•
should any trace of water appear, check the
drain hole of the container to ensure that it is
not clogged, that the water fill and drain pipes
are correctly connected and are not throttled or
10
damaged.
•
make sure that the temperature of the air or
water does not exceed the installation limit
values.
•
make sure that the water inlet filter is not
clogged.
•
make sure that the spray nozzles are not
clogged with scaly deposits.
If the fault still persists after the above inspections
have been made, turn off the electric power source
by means of the switch fitted during the installation
phase, pull out the plug from its socket, turn off the
tap connecting the appliance to the water main, and
contact the nearest Authorized Technical Service
Center.
To obtain a faster and more efficient reply when you
call the Center, state the model of the appliance
precisely, together with its serial number or
manufacturing number. This information is given on
the serial N° (Fig. 1) affixed to the rear of the
appliance and on the cover of this Instruction
Manual.
8 OPERATION
The automatic ice-cube maker has a probe (19 Fig.
11) in the ice container.
When the ice reaches the probe, a thermostat
automatically stops ice production.
When ice is taken from the container, the thermostat
will automatically reactivate ice-cube production,
thus creating a new supply of ice.
8.1
MODEL WITH CONTINUOUS SUPPLY (Fig.
12)
The appliance is equipped with an ice-cube
dispenser (24) on the front.
To take the required quantity of ice, place a glass
or a suitable container under the dispenser and
press the button (25) to turn on the supply.
Release the button (25) to stop the ice supply.
8.1.a ADJUSTING DISPENSED QUANTITY (Fig.
13)
All operations that require handling of
parts made of metal plate must be carried out
wearing suitable gloves to prevent cuts.
The operations described below must be
performed by a specialized technician, and only
after disconnecting the appliance from the
electricity main.
The appliance is provided with an electronic device
for adjusting the quantity of ice dispensed each time.
To increase or decrease the dispensing time and
the proportionate quantity of ice dispensed, proceed
as follows:
•
remove the basin (26)
•
slacken off the screws (27) on the front panel
(28) using a crossheaded screwdriver
•
pull out the front panel (28) from above
•
turn the knob (29) on the electronic device
clockwise to increase the quantity of ice
dispensed whenever the button is pressed, and
anti-clockwise to reduce the quantity.
8.2
MODEL WITH COLD WATER DISPENSER
(Fig. 14)
The appliance is provided with a cold water
dispenser located beside the ice container.
To obtain cold water, place a glass under the outlet
and gently press the button (30) to turn on the water
tap.
Release the button to stop the flow of cold water.
If the appliance is already provided with a filter
located on the cold water supply circuit, read the
instructions on the filter label carefully and follow
the manufacturer's recommendations regarding the
replacement schedules.
9 MAINTENANCE
9.1 CLEANING THE SOLENOID VALVE FILTER
At least every two months, clean the filter (31
Fig. 15) located on the water inlet solenoid valve,
proceeding as follows:
•
Switch off the electric power supply by means
of the switch (9 Fig. 4), fitted during installation,
and disconnect the plug of the appliance from
its socket.
•
Shut off the water supply by turning the tap (10
Fig. 7) fitted during installation.
•
Unscrew the threaded ring nut (11a Fig. 15) of
the water feed hose, located at the outlet of the
solenoid valve at the rear of the automatic
ice-cube maker (front for the built-in model). For
the built-in model, first remove the panel as
indicated at point 5.2.a.
•
Using a pair of pliers, remove the filter (31 Fig.
15) from its seat without damaging the water
feed pipe connector.
•
Place the filter under a strong jet of water to
remove residue, but replace the filter if it is
excessively dirty.
After having carried out the cleaning operations, refit
the filter and hose pipe taking the necessary
precautions described earlier in the Instruction
Manual.
When the operations have terminated, turn on
both the electricity supply and water supply.
9.2 AIR-COOLED MODELS
For air-cooled models, it is very important to keep
the finned condenser clean.
Have the finned condenser cleaned at least once
every two months by an authorized Technical
Service Center, which can include this operation in
the scheduled maintenance program.
9.3
CLEANING AND SANITIZING THE ICE
TRAY (Fig. 16-17-18)
All cleaning operations must be carried
out only after the electric power and water
supplies have been disconnected, as described
previously.
Open the door (32) located on the front of the
automatic ice-cube maker.
The inside basin of the model with continuous
delivery can be accessed from the front upper panel
(33). To access it, disconnect the power supply and
follow the procedure according to the indications in
Figure 16.
a. Remove the seal (34).
b. Fully unscrew the two screws (35).
