DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE!
Never store bottles or food in the ice cube

block and damage the ice maker.
Ice cube production starts as soon as the appliance
has reached the set temperature.
Notes
■ Ice cube production stops automatically when the
ice cube container is full.
■ When using the appliance for the first time,
discard ice cubes produced within the first
24 hours for hygiene reasons.
■ If you have stopped ice cube production for
several days, discard the first 30-40 ice cubes
produced for hygiene reasons.

water filter.
