cubes in the freezer compartment.
The temperature can be set from 3 °F (−16 °C) to −11 °F
(−24 °C).
Long-term storage of food should be at 0 °F (−18 °C) or
lower.
To protect foods from freezer burn, a temperature setting
of −11 °F (−24 °C) is possible.
To protect fatty foods such as fish and meat from
oxidation, a permanent temperature setting of −11 °F
(−24 °C) is possible.
The freezer compartment can be used to store perishable
foods long-term. The low temperatures slow down or stop
the spoilage.

17 Water system

Water system

Your appliance is equipped with water-carrying
Water system
components.
The water system only works if a water filter or a bypass
cap is installed.
Switch off ice cube production before disconnecting the
appliance from the drinking water connection. → Page 22
17.1 Water filter
The water filter filters particles and the taste of chlorine out
of the water.
The water filter reduces further contamination, e.g. from
chloramines, lead and pharmaceutical products.
Note: The water filter does not filter bacteria or microbes
out of the water.
Change the water filter:
¡ Every 6 months.
¡ If "Clean Filter" lights up.
¡ If the water output has visibly reduced.
¡ If ice cube production has visibly reduced.
Tips
¡ A new water filter can be purchased from our customer
service, your dealer or our website.
¡ If you do not want to use a water filter in your appliance
or an external water filter system is installed, you can
permanently replace the water filter with a bypass cap.
The bypass cap filters only large particles out of the
water and can be cleaned as required.
