5.2 POSITIONING
It is advisable to install the appliance in a room
where the temperature is between 10°C and
35°C, and with a water supply temperature of
between 3°C and 25°C.
Avoid installing the appliance where it may be
exposed to direct sunlight or near heat sources
such as radiators, stoves, dishwashers, etc.
This appliance
•
must not be used outdoors
•
must not the installed in damp places or where
it is liable to be sprayed with water
•
must be positioned at a distance of at least 5
cm from the side walls (this does not apply to
built-in models).
5.2.a POSITIONING FOR BUILT-IN MODELS
Ventilation is ensured by the grille on the front panel;
it is therefore not necessary to leave any gap, except
to facilitate installation.
A hole must be made in the surface where the
appliance is to be located as shown in Table (A)
(see Fig. 5) so that the power cable, water feed pipe
and the water drainage pipe can be passed through.
The plug and water supply and drainage
connections must be accessible from the front panel.
To access these, disconnect the appliance from the
power supply, unscrew the screws (13) that hold
the front panel in place (14) and after opening the
door (see Fig. 6) pull out the panel from above.
Before fitting the ice-cube maker in place, the power
cable must be fixed to the base plate as shown in
the diagram in Fig. 6.
Fit the front panel back in place after making these
connections.
•
Pass the plug and cable (15) through the hole
(16) in the plate.
•
Position the cable clamp (17) in its housing.

5.3 CONNECTION TO THE ELECTRICITY MAIN
Before connecting the appliance to the
electricity main, make sure that the mains
voltage rating corresponds to the value
indicated on the rating plate.
Make sure that the appliance is connected
to an efficient earthing system.
Make sure that the capacity of the power
supply system suits the maximum power value
indicated on the rating plate of the appliance.
To ensure that the automatic ice-cube
maker is correctly and safely installed, provide
an adequate socket controlled by an omnipolar
circuit-breaker (9 Fig. 4), with a contact opening
gap of not less than 3 mm, in accordance with
current national safety standards. This switch
must be equipped with fuses, with the
associated residual current device positioned
in such a way as to be readily accessible.
Fit the plug (8 Fig. 4) into the switch socket (9 Fig.
4).
The plug must only be replaced by professionally
qualified and authorized personnel, and the new
plug must comply with current national safety
standards.
If the automatic ice-cube maker comes supplied
without a plug and you wish to connect it
permanently to the power supply, prepare an
omnipolar circuit-breaker, with a contact-opening
gap of not less than 3 mm, in accordance with
national safety standards currently in force. This
switch must be equipped with fuses, with the
associated residual current device positioned in
such a way as to be readily accessible. This
operation must be carried out by a specialized
technician.

consumption (drinking water).
The operating pressure must be between 0.1 and
0.6 MPa.
The appliance must be connected to the water main

with the manufacturer's instructions.
mains and the feed pipe of the automatic
ice-cube maker, so that the water supply may
be shut off if necessary.
Where the feed water is particularly hard, you are
advised to install a softener. Any solid particles (e.g.,
sand) may be eliminated by installing a mechanical
filter, which must be periodically inspected and
cleaned. These devices must comply with the
standards in force in the country of use.

5.4.a FILLING WITH WATER (Fig. 7)
Insert the special seals provided (18) in the two
threaded ring nuts of the water feed pipe (11)
supplied with the automatic ice-cube maker.
Without exerting excessive force (otherwise the
Y
unions could crack), firmly tighten one of the
threaded ring nuts on the outlet of the solenoid val-

5.4.b DRAINAGE (Fig. 7)
Fix the water drainage pipe (12 Fig. 7) in the housing
provided on the rear of the automatic ice-cube maker
(front for the completely built-in model). Make
sure that:
•
The pipe is a hose.
•
The internal diameter is 22 mm, as required.
•
The water drainage hose is not throttled at any
point throughout its length.
•
The drainage hose slopes downwards by at
least 15%.
It is advisable to drain the water straight into an open
drain trap.
6 START-UP
6.1 CLEANING INTERNAL PARTS
The automatic ice-cube maker has already been
cleaned in the factory. However, you are advised to
wash the internal parts again before using the
appliance. Make sure that the power supply cable
is unplugged before carrying out the above cleaning
operation.
For cleaning operations in general, use an ordinary
detergent for washing dishes or a solution of water
and vinegar. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of cold
water and remove any ice that may have been
produced during the initial cycles.
It is advisable to avoid using abrasive detergents or
powders, since these might damage the finish. (For
further information regarding cleaning of internal
parts, refer to Point 9.3 of this Instruction Manual.)
6.2 START-UP (Fig. 8)
When you start up the automatic ice-cube maker
the first time, or when you start it up again after
a long period at a standstill, pour three liters of
water into the internal basin.
This filling operation must be carried out by
raising the flaps (20) and pouring the water
directly into the internal basin.
In the cycles subsequent to the initial one, the
appliance will be filled with water in a fully automatic
way.
Once the above operation has been performed,
