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

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 container must be completely
shut for ice cubes to be produced.
^ Touch the sensor for the freezer
section 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 section has cooled
down to its set temperature, the ice
cube maker will fill with water.
When the water has frozen, the ice
cubes will fall 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 number of ice cubes which the
appliance makes depends on the

Making ice cubes

temperature in the freezer: The lower
the temperature, the more ice cubes
are produced within a certain time
frame.
After the appliance has been 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.
The first three containers of ice
cubes after switching on for the first
time must not be consumed
because the water used will have
been used to rinse through the
pipework.
This is also the case when the
appliance has been switched off for
a long time.
