1 SAFETY

DANGER!

A faulty housing or frame may be live!


Hazardous voltages inside the appliance!

• To prevent electric shocks, always comply with the following


instructions:
• Before commencing repairs, ALWAYS disconnect the
appliance from the power supply!
• If tests have to be performed while the appliance is live,
ALWAYS use a residual-current-operated circuit-breaker!
• Ensure that the protective conductor is connected correctly!
This is essential for personal safety and appliance function.
• When repairs are complete, perform a test in accordance with
VDE 0701 and a function and leak test.
• Do not touch any components in the appliance; even the
modules are live.
• ALWAYS comply with the ESD regulations!

2 INSTALLATION

DANGER
CAUTION

Avoid pinch/crush injury hazard –


Read the instructions in the installation manual completely and Finger guard must be installed along the hinge side of the door for
carefully before you begin installation manual. safety.

WARNING

These appliances are top heavy and must be secured to prevent the
possibility of tipping forward.
Keep doors closed until the appliance is completely installed and
secured per installation instructions.
Due to size and weight of appliance and to reduce risk of personal
injury or damage to the product – TWO PEOPLE ARE REQUIRED
FOR PROPER INSTALLATION.

CAUTION 1: CAUTION 4:
To operate the icemaker, icebin should be on its place and
locked. Otherwise ice production cycle will stop at step 5. (see If ice bin is full of ice, ice production cycle will stop at step 5 (see
ice production cycle) ice production cycle)

CAUTION 5:
CAUTION 2: If the water filter is not installed or not well assembled, then ice
production will not start and water will not be dispensed!
Icemaker will be active if ‘’ICE’’ button is pressed. If ice button is
not pressed and ‘’ICE’’ is not displayed on the display ice
production will not start!

CAUTION 3:

If the temperature in freezer compartment is warmer than -12 °C,

DEMO Program 5.17.3 Auto diagnostic program
When DEMO Mode is active:
Activation of the auto diagnostic program:
¾ No loading components are activated.
¾ Switch the appliance off and wait at least three minutes.
¾ All setting functions can be initiated.
¾ Switch the appliance on.
¾ The under voltage display and the sensor error display are
deactivated. ¾ Press the buttons ‘’ALARM OFF’’ and ‘’SETUP’’ together until
“LOAD 0” appears on the display. (ca 5 seconds.)
Demo mode is ended when the appliance is switched off.
→The auto diagnostic program starts.
Program runs as follows:
The electronics check all sensors (-55°C to 60°C)
→ If a sensor is defect, the related error message (see fault
display) appears and the appliance switches to normal mode.
(no load activation)
→ If all sensors are OK, the electronics switch all components
for five seconds on.

Finally the program switches to normal operation.

7.3 Icemaker Fault Display
Action list for icemaker fault list:
When the Ice-maker detects an error the Red Service LED will start
flashing to communicate this error. If an error code occurs do the following control according to the
following action list.
CAUTION:

Icemaker fault display may be seen in normal operation if the


light switch is pressed (fix with a tape) .

The structure of the flashed messages is as follows:

1 long flash to indicate the start of the error code.


This flash should not be counted towards any of the error codes.
Pause with the LED off.
A series of between 1 and 9 flashes. This forms code 1.
Pause with the LED off.
A series of between 1 and 9 flashes. This forms code 2.
Pause with the LED off.
A series of between 1 and 9 flashes. This forms the Device Code.

Then the fault code is established.


for ex.: ( 2 -1 -1 )
2: Code 1

1: Device Code

If an error code is detected, action list should be used for


troubleshooting.
