Troubleshooting guide

The ice has an unpleasant smell

or taste:

The dispenser does not dispense

ice when the lever is pressed:

If the dispenser does not

dispense water when the lever is

pressed:

There is condensation in the ice

and water dispenser:

The automatic ice-maker noises:

The lamp does not work:

• Has the ice absorbed bad odours? Is the quality of the water good? Water

containing minerals may require a filter.

• Is the food properly covered?

• Is the ice bucket/freezer compartment clean? Follow the instructions for

the correct ice dispenser water supply.

• Are the pipes correctly connected to the ice dispenser? The first ice cubes

coming out of the dispenser may have an unpleasant taste, therefore it is

advisable to discard them and make new ice cubes.

• Change the ice selection from cubes to crushed ice, or vice versa, in

order to remove any ice blocks. If the dispenser still does not dispense

ice, wait a couple of minutes and repeat the operation.

• During the first delivery, there will be a delay of 15 to 20 seconds due to

the system needing to fill with water.

• If the appliance is kept at very cold temperatures and the meat drawer

temperature control shutter is open, water delivery might be temporarily

interrupted. Closing the shutter will cause water delivery to recommence

within the next 12 hours.

• Press the corresponding button (marked with A in the

figure) to activate the anticondensation function.

Since the appliance is equipped with an automatic ice-maker, you may hear

a humming sound (coming from the water valve), water trickling and the

sound of ice falling into the bucket.

1. Always unplug the appliance.

2. Refer to chapter “Maintenance and Cleaning”
