Appliance installation
▪
The appliance must be installed by
qualified personnel only.
▪
Each step must be carried out and
checked in full in the order specified.
▪
Electrical connections must be carried
out by qualified personnel in accord-
ance with the guidelines and standards
for low-voltage installations and the spe-
cifications of the local electricity supply
companies.
▪
A plug-in appliance may only be con-
nected to a socket outlet with earthing
contact, installed according to specifica-
tions. An all-pole mains isolating device
with 3 mm contact opening should be
provided in the house wiring system.
Switches, plug and socket devices, cir-
cuit breakers and fusible cut-outs which
are accessible after installation and
which have all-poles switching are per-
missible as isolating devices. Effective
earthing and separately installed neutral
and earth conductors ensure safe and
fault-free operation. After installation,
live parts and cables with basic insula-
tion must not be accessible. Check old
installations.
▪
Refer to the identification plate for in-
formation on the required mains
voltage, current type and fuse protec-
tion.
▪
All plastering, plasterboarding, wall pa-
pering and painting work is to be car-
ried out prior to installing the appliance.
▪
Efficient repairs can only be guaranteed
if it is possible to de-install the complete
appliance at any time without causing
any damage.
▪
The ice-maker (depending on model)
needs to be connected to the domestic
water supply. Use the water inlet hose
with 3/4 inch thread supplied for this.
The water pressure must be between
0.05 MPa and 0.5 MPa (between 0.5
bar and 5 bar). Any deviation in operat-
ing pressure can affect the functioning
of the appliance or cause leaks in the
hydraulic circuit.
▪
Check that there is a water filter cart-
ridge installed and that the water circuit
has been flushed before switching the
ice-maker on for the first time.
▪
The appliance must be supplied with
drinking water only. Establish the water
connection before establishing the elec-
trical connection, as needed (depend-
ing on model).
▪
Do not attempt to use a garden hose,
threaded adapter or braided supply
line. This would damage the threads on
the water connection solenoid of the ap-
pliance.

Instructions for use
Before using for the first time
▪
The appliance must be installed and
connected to the electricity supply in
accordance with the separate installa-
tion instructions. Have a qualified fitter/
electrician carry out the necessary
work.
▪
Electrical safety (protection against con-
tact) must be ensured by the installa-
tion.
