Any damage must be reported to your dealer within 24 hours after delivery of the appliance. [. . . ] 3. You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will not make the ice dispenser operate faster or produce greater quantities of ice. 4. To stop dispensing, remove the glass slowly so ice does not fall outside of the glass. 5. Do not use a fine, fragile glass to collect ice. NOTE: The first few batches of ice cubes may have an off-taste; Throw this ice away. Ice is dispensed from the automatic ice maker bucket in the freezer compartment. When the outside dispenser bar is pressed, a trapdoor opens between the ice bucket and the dispenser. When the glass is taken away from the dispenser bar, the trapdoor closes. The dispenser will not operate when the freezer compartment door is open. Large amounts of ice cubes should be taken directly from the bucket, not through the dispenser. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size. When changing from crushed ice to ice cubes, a small quantity of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes. After starting the appliance, it generally takes overnight before the first ice cubes are ready. • If the dispenser does not dispense ice when you press the bar, change the ice selection from ice cubes to crushed ice or vice versa, (see figure) so as to remove any ice blocks. • If the dispenser still does not dispense ice, wait two minutes and repeat this operation. • If there is condensation in the ice/water dispenser area, press the corresponding button (marked A in the figure) to activate the anti-condensation device. 15 3gb33087. fm Page 16 Wednesday, February 11, 2004 5:47 PM To dispense water: After the water dispenser has been switched on, throw the first glasses of water away, then the water can be used. Repeat this operation whenever water has not been dispensed for a long time. You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the lever in order to activate the dispenser. Pressing hard will not make the water dispenser operate faster or produce greater quantities. USE OF THE DISPENSER LIGHT AND DISPENSER LOCK (ON SOME MODELS) The dispenser area has a night light. It can be turned on and off by pressing the button located at the centre of the panel. Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent accidental dispensing by small children and pets. The ice maker will automatically switch off when it finishes making ice. To turn off the water/ice dispenser, press the light button and the ice selection button simultaneously.
