Automatic Icemaker (on some models)
The icemaker will produce seven cubes
per cycle—approximately 100–130 cubes
in a 24-hour period, depending on
freezer compartment temperature,
room temperature, number of door
openings and other use conditions.
There are two types of icemakers: power
switch models and feeler arm models.
If the refrigerator is operated before
the water connection is made to the
icemaker, set the power switch to O (off)
or move the feeler arm to the STOP (up)
position.
When the refrigerator has been
connected to the water supply, set the
power switch to the I (on) position or move
the feeler arm to the ON (down) position.
On power switch models, the green light
will come on.
You will hear a buzzing sound each time
the icemaker fills with water.
The icemaker will fill with water when
it cools to 15°F. A newly-installed
refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours
to begin making ice cubes.
Throw away the first few batches of ice
to allow the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the
sweep of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the
feeler arm, the icemaker will stop
producing ice.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined
together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes
will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
On power switch models, the green power
light will blink if ice cubes get stuck in the
icemaker. To correct this, set the power
switch to O (off) and remove the cubes. Set
the power switch to I (on) to restart the
icemaker. After the icemaker has been
turned on again, there will be a delay of
about 45 minutes before the icemaker
resumes operation.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle
multiple times when making one batch of ice.
