Making Ice Cubes - Miele KF 1801 Vi Operating And Installation Manual

Making ice cubes

For the automatic ice cube maker to
operate it must be connected to the
mains water supply (see "Mains
water connection").
Switching on the ice cube
maker
^ Make sure that the ice cube
container is correctly located
underneath the ice cube maker.
The ice cube container must be
completely shut for ice cubes to be
produced.
^ Touch the sensor for the freezer zone
so that it is highlighted in yellow.
^ Touch the On/Off sensor for the ice
cube maker so that it is highlighted in
yellow.
Once the freezer has cooled down to its
set temperature, the ice cube maker
will fill with water.
When the water has frozen, the ice
cubes will drop out of the ice cube
maker into the ice cube container.
The ice cube maker can make up to
140 ice cubes in 24 hours.
The amount of ice cubes which the
appliance makes depends on the
temperature in the freezer zone. The
40
lower the temperature, the more ice
cubes are produced.
After the appliance is switched on for
the first time it can take up to 10 hours
for the first ice cubes to drop out of the
ice cube maker and collect in the
container.
Ice cube production is halted
automatically when the ice cube
container is full.
Do not place bottles or other items in
the ice cube maker to chill them
quickly. The ice cube maker could
become blocked and, as a result, be
damaged.
Do not use the first three containers
full of ice cubes, as the water will
have been used to rinse through the
water pipework. This also applies
when making ice cubes for the first
time after not having used the
appliance for a while.
