Any damage must be reported to your dealer within 24 hours after delivery of the appliance. • The packaging box is recyclable and is marked with the recycling symbol . • The appliance is manufactured using recyclable material. [. . . ] 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. For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This may cause a slight delay in dispensing crushed ice. 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. Use warm water to melt the ice if necessary. Never use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bucket. This can cause damage to the ice bucket and the dispenser mechanism. 2. Wash the ice bucket with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents. NOTE: Do not turn the ice maker on until it is connected to the water supply. • It is normal for ice cubes to be stick together at the corners. • The ice maker will not operate until the freezer compartment is cold enough to make ice. • Good water quality is important for good ice quality. Water softener chemicals such as salt can damage the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. 40 3gb33085. fm Page 41 Wednesday, February 11, 2004 5:33 PM COMMON ICE MAKER PROBLEMS PROBLEM The dispenser does not work.
