Cleaning the ice maker
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals,
especially prior to vacation or moving.
1 Turn off the ice
maker.
2 Remove the ice bin
by pulling straight
out.
3 Empty and carefully
clean the ice bin
with mild detergent.
Do not use harsh or
abrasive cleaners.
Rinse with clear
water.

replacing in the freezer.
5 Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on.
IMPORTANT
When removing or replacing the ice bin, DO NOT
rotate the auger in the ice bin. If the auger is
accidentally rotated, you must realign the auger by
turning it in 90 degree turns (see below) until the ice
bin fits into place with the drive mechanism. If the
auger is not properly aligned when replacing the ice
bin, the refrigerator will produce no ice. The fresh food
door also may not close properly causing warm air to
leak into the fresh food compartment.
CAUTION
If the water supply to your refrigerator is softened,
be sure the softener is properly maintained.
Chemicals from a water softener can damage the
ice maker.
CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp
instrument to break up the ice. This could damage
the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water. Before
replacing the ice bin, make sure it is completely
dry.
