PLUMBING
CONNECTION
—
Connect
the
water
and
drain
hoses
through
the
rear
wall
of
the
unit
(Fig.
3).
—
Connect
the
water
inlet
hose
to
a
cold
water
tap,
having
a3/
4”
BSP
thread.
The
outlet
hose
is
to
be
placed
into
a
drain,
preferably
equipped
with
an
S
-
trap
to
prevent
any
odour
back-up.
The
drain
must
be
at
a
lower
level
than
the
outlet
of
the
hose
from
the
appliance.
—
The
outlet
hose
should
be
inclined
at
least
10
degrees
so
the
water
can
drain
naturally.
—
If
the
water
is
very
hard
(rich
in
calcium
and
magnesium
salts),
insert
a
softener-filter
on
the
inlet
connection
between
the
tap
and
the
hose.
This
filter
brings
the
water
hardnesstoa
.-
normal
value.
—
Regenerate
or
replace
the
water-softener
filter
(according
to
the
type)
when
the
ice
cubes
are
not
completely
transpar-
ent
or
production
time
is
increased.
This
appliance
conforms
to
EEC
directive
N°
82/499/EEC
on
radiointerference.

OPERATION
Ice
maker
operation
is
completely
automatic.
Ice
is
formed
by
progressive
refrigeration
of
a
film
of
water
which
flows
ona
refrigerated
inclined
plate
(Fig.
4).
When
the
ice
film
attains
the
required
thickness,
a
thermostat
‘automatically
releases
the
ice
sheet
which
slides
on
to
a
cross-hatched
network
of
low
voltage
wire
(Fig.
5).
This
network
melts
the
ice,
cutting
the
sheet
into
cubes.
.
This
continues
until
the
ice
cubes
bin
is
completely
filled.
A
thermostat
then
automatically
stops
the
ice
cubes
produc-
tion.
When
the
level
of
the
ice
cubes
in
the
bin
decreases,
be-
cause
of
melting
or
use,
the
thermostat
will
automatically
re-
start
the
appliance.
The
water
formed
by
melting
ice
cubes
accumulates
in
the
bottom
of
the
bin
and
is
discharged
through
a
drain
hole.
STARTING
UP
Before
using
your
ice
maker
for
the
first
time,
clean
it
tho-
roughly.
Follow
the
instructions
in
the
“Maintenance”
section
of
this
booklet.
—
Plug
the
appliance
into
the
wall
socket.
—
Turn
on
the
water
supply.
-—
Press
the
green
switch.
ADJUSTING
THE
ICE
CUBE
THICKNESS
ice
cube
thickness
is
pre-set
at
the
factory.
The
thickness
can
be
increased
or
decreased
by
turning
the
thermostat
knob
with
a
screwdriver.
Turning
the
knob
clockwise
increases
the
thickness,
turning
it
anti-clockwise
decreases
the
thickness
(Fig.
6).
By
means
of
the
thermostat
knob
it
is
possible
to
ad-
just
the
variations
due
to
the
ambient
temperature,
when
itis
higher
than
32°C
and
lower
than
10°C.
—
Never
turn
the
thermostat
knob
outside
the
field
indicated
on
the
dial.
—
Adjust
the
ice
thickness
thermostat
only
after
a
few
hours
operation
and
only
after
the
bin
has
half-filled
with
ice
cubes.
—
Non-observance
of
the
thermostat
setting
rule
could
result
in
damage
to
the
ice
maker,
especially
if
the
thermostat
knob
is
left
on
alow
setting
in
high
room
temperature.
In
this
case
the
ice
could
become
so
thick
that
the
ice
will
not
be
cut.
On
the
other
hand,
the
ice
thickness
could
be
reduced
to
a
minimum
or
none
at
all.
ADJUSTING
THE
ICE
CUBES
LEVEL
The
thermostat
is
pre-set
at
the
factory.
However,
ifthe
ambient
temperature
is
higher
than
+
32°C
it
is
necessary
to
adjust
the
thermostat
knob
to
position
x
,
ifthe
ambient
temperature
is
lower
than
+
16°C,
it
will
be
necessary
to
adjust
the
thermostat
knob
to
position
(Fig.
7).
MAINTENANCE
Always
pull
out
the
plug
and
turn
off
the
water
before
doing
any
work
(cleaning
or
repair)
on
the
unit.
Periodically
clean
the
appliance
(every
6
months)
and
the
water
system,
to
keep
the
appliance
operating
at
maximum
efficiency
and
to
ensure
the
best
ice
cubes
quality.
When
the
ice
cubes
production
timeis
increased,
and
the
cubes
start
to
lose
their
transparency,
it
is
time
to
clean
the
water
system.
How
often
you
clean
this
system
depends
on
the
hardness
of
the
water.
.
During
freezing,
the
calcium
in
the
water
is
deposited
on
the
refrigerated
plate.
These
deposits
act
as
insulation,
decreas-
ing
the
efficiency
of
the
appliance’s
performance.
To
clean
the
water
system,
proceed
as
follows:
1)
Turn
offthe
water
and
switch
off
the
appliance
by
pressing
the
green
switch.
—
2)
Open
the
ice
bin
and
remove
all
the
cubes.
3)
Remove
the
plug
inside
the
bin
(Fig.
8)
to
drain
the
water
from
the
bin.
4)
Pour
1.5
|
of
water
mixed
with
1,,
litre
of
vinegar
or
4
table-
spoonfuls
of
lemon
juice
or
citric
acid
into
the
bin
using
the
funnel
provided
(Fig.
9).
5)
Press
the
two
switches
(green
and
blue)
and
operate
the
appliance
for
40
minutes
approx.
6)
Release
the
two
switches
(green
and
blue)
and
drain
this
water
mixture
into
the
liner
by
inverting
the
position
of
the
fun-
nel.
7)
Pour
1.51
water
and
2
tablespoonful
of
baking
soda
into
the
bin,
press
the
two
switches
(green
and
blue)
and
operate
the
appliance
for
5
minutes
approx.
8)
Drain
the
water
and
repeat
the
operation,
by
rinsing
with
1.5
|
of
water
and
leaving
the
appliance
operating
for
5
mi-
nutes.
9)
Remove
the
funnel
with
the
hose
after
the
water
drain
and
replace
the
plug.
10)
Clean
the
inside
of
the
bin
reservoir
and
the
door
gasket
with
a
soft
cloth
dampened
in
a
solution
of
warm
water
and
baking
soda.
11)Press
the
green
switch
and
turn
the
water
on:
the
ice
mak-
er
will
begin
to
work
again.
Remove
dust
periodically
from
the
motor
compartment
and
the
condenser
with
a
vacuum
cleaner.
Do
this
by
removing
the
ventilation
grids
on
the
sides
and/or
back
wall
of
the
appli-
ance.
Always
remember
to
unplug
the
appliance
before
work-
ing
on
it.
poe
Important:
To
prevent
odour
contamination
of
the
ice
cubes,
do
not
put
foods
or
beverages
into
the
ice
cube
bin.
When
not
in
use
for
long
periods
of
time
(holidays,
etc.)
turn
off
the
water,
pull
out
the
plug,
remove
all
ice
cubes,
drain
the
water
tank
by
removing
the
plug
as
described
in
the
“Maintenance”
section
of
this
booklet,
and
leave
the
door
open
to
prevent
the
formation
of
odours.
SERVICE
if
the
ice
maker
does
not
work
properly
or
does
not
work
at
all,
before
calling
for
service,
carry
out
the
following
checks
(which
are
also
listed
on
the
sticker
at
the
back
of
the
appli-
ance
Fig.
2).
This
is
very
important
as
travel
expenses
and
la-
bour
costs
will
be
charged
to
you
if
your
call
turns
out
to
be
unjustified.
,
If
the
compressor
does
not
work
and
the
ice
bin
is
empty,
check
that:
—
There
is
power
at
the
outlet.
—
the
plug
is
connected
correctly
to
the
socket
—
one
of
the
power
cord
wires
is
not
disconnected.
The
wash
switch
is
pressed.
.
;
If
the
compressor
works
and
the
ice
bin
is
empty,
check
that:
—
the
water
is
turned
on.
—
the
thermostat
is
set
according
to
the
instructions
given.
If
the
ice
cubes
are
too
thick
or
too
thin,
check
that:
—
the
thermostat
knobs
are
positioned
according
to
instruc-
tions.
If
ice
cubes
formation
takes
too
long.
—
It
is
possible
that
a
calcium
deposit
has
formed
on
the
refri-
gerated
plate.
To
remove
this
deposit,
clean
the
water
system
(as
described
in
the
“Maintenance”
section
of
this
booklet).
If
the
calcium
builds
up
too
rapidly,
install
a
water
softener
filter:
if
the
water
softener
filter
is
already
installed,
itis
necessary
to
replace
or
to
regenerate
it.
If
there
is
no
water
in
the
ice
bin,
check
that:
—
the
drain
hose
is
well
connected
—
the
drain
hose
is
not
clogged
or
kinked.
If
the
ice
cubes
are
not
transparent,
check
that:
—
the
water
is
not
too
hard.
If
itis,
install
the
water
softener
fil-
ter.
If
already
installed,
regenerate
or
replace
it.
If
after
the
above
checks,
the
unit
is
still
not
working
properly,
contact
your
dealer
or
Service.
Describe
the
nature
of
the
fault
and
give
the
mode!
of
the
unit.
The
model
number
is
printed
on
the
rating
plate
at
the

of
the
appliance
(Fig.
