Operation
5.12 Shelves
u To remove shelf: lift it at the front and
pull out forward.
u To reinsert shelf: simply slide it in as
far as it will go.

u Place items in freezer bags
or containers.
u Store the freezer bags or containers in a drawer.
u To thaw, loosely spread the items out again.

5.16 IceMaker
The IceMaker is in the fourth drawer from the top. The
drawer is labeled “IceMaker”.

5.13 VarioSpace
In addition to the drawers, you
can also take out the shelves.
This gives you space for large
frozen items. Poultry, meat, large
joints of game and tall bakery
items can be frozen and then
presented whole.
u Each drawer can hold up to
55.12 lbs (25 kg) of frozen
food; each plate can hold up to
77.16 lbs (35 kg).

Make sure that the following conditions are fulfilled:
- The appliance is level.
- The appliance is connected to the electricity supply.
- The minimum freezer temperature is 14 °F (-10 °C).
- The IceMaker is connected to the water supply.
- All air was bled from the waterline before starting the
icemaker. The icemaker will only work if there is no air
in the waterline.

The numbers indicate the storage time in months for
different types of frozen foods. The storage times given
are guidelines.

5.15 Compartment for herbs and
berries
With the compartment for herbs and berries, you can
freeze berries, herbs, vegetables, and other small food
items without their clumping together. Items frozen here
will retain their original shape, making it easier to portion
them out later.

5.15.1 Using the compartment for herbs and
berries
u Loosely spread out the
items to be frozen in the
herb and berry compartment.
u Leave the items for 10 to 12
hours
until
they
are
completely frozen.

10

u Pull out the drawer.
u Press On/Off button Fig. 4 (1) so that the LED Fig. 4 (2)
lights up.
u Push in the drawer.
Note
u The IceMaker only produces ice cubes when the
drawer is completely closed.

5.16.2 Producing ice cubes
The production capacity depends on the freezer temperature. The lower the temperature, the more ice cubes can
be produced in a certain period.
The production capacity is 90- 100 ice cubes in 24 hours
at a freezing temperature of 0 °F (-18 °C).
To have the maximum capacity of approx. 130 ice cubes
in 24 hours, activate the SuperFrost Function. Be aware
that this increases the energy consumption because the
compressor will run constantly.
The ice cubes fall out of the IceMaker into the drawer.
When the ice cubes reach a certain height in the drawer,
no more ice cubes can be produced. The IceMaker will
not fill the drawer to the top.
If large quantities of ice cubes are required, the complete
IceMaker drawer can be swapped with the neighboring
drawer. When you close the drawer, the IceMaker automatically restarts production.
When the IceMaker is switched on for the first time, it may
take up to 24 hours for the first ice cubes to be produced.

* Depending on model and options

Maintenance
Note
Particles may accumulate in the IceMaker or water line
the first time the appliance is used or after an extended
period out of service.
u To achieve this, do not consume or use the ice cubes
that are produced within 72 hours.

5.16.3 Setting the water supply time
The opening time of the valve on the IceMaker can be
adjusted if, for example, the water pressure in the pipe is
too low or too high.
The water supply time can be set in stages from E1 (short
supply time) to E8 (long supply time). The default setting
is E3.
u Activate setting mode: press and hold the SuperFrost
button Fig. 2 (9) for approximately 5 s.
w S is shown on the display.

-oru Wait 5 mins.
w The temperature is again displayed on the temperature
display.

5.16.4 Switching off the IceMaker
When the IceMaker is switched off, the drawer of the
IceMaker can also be used for freezing and storing food.
u Press the On/Off button for about 1 second until the
LED goes out.
u Clean the IceMaker.
w This ensures that no water or ice remains in the
IceMaker.

6 Maintenance
6.1 Replacing the water filter
