Automatic ice Water aker/Dispenser 19
Priming the water suppEy
CAUTION
For proper dispenser operation, recommended
water supply pressure should fall between 30 psi
and 100 psi. Excessive pressure may cause water
filter to malfunction.
Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding
a drinking glass against the water dispenser
paddle.
Keep the glass
in this position
until water
comes out of the
dispenser, it may
take about 1Vz
minutes.
Continue
dispensing water
for about three
(3) minutes to
flush the system and plumbing connections of
any impurities (stopping to empty the glass as
necessary).
NOTE
The water dispenser has a built-in device that shuts
off the water flow after three (3) minutes of continuous
use. To reset this shutoff device, simply release the
dispenser paddle.
maker operation & care
After the refrigerator is installed properly and has
cooled for several hours, the ice maker can produce ice
within 24 hours. It can completely fill an ice bin in about
eight (8) hours.
The ice maker produces approximately 10 pounds of
ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.
iMPORTANT
Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can
work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you
cannot connect a water supply, set the ice maker's
On/Off icon to Off and turn off the water supply valve;
otherwise, the ice maker's fill valve may make a loud
chattering noise when it attempts to operate without
water.
Turning the ice maker on and off
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's On/Off
icon on the control panel. Press and hold the "Ice Off"
icon for three (3) seconds to turn the ice maker "ON" or
"OFF".
NOTE
The ice maker atso has a built-in plastic signal bale
arm that automatically stops ice production when the
ice bin is full. This signal arm should not be used to
manually stop the ice maker.
Using the ice maker after installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime
the water supply system. Air in new plumbing lines can
result in two (2) or three (3) empty ice maker cycles.
Furthermore, if the system is not flushed, the first ice
cubes may be discolored or have an odd flavor.
iMPORTANT
On occasion, unusually small disc-shaped ice may
be noticed in the bucket or in dispensed ice. This
could occur in normal operation of the ice maker. If
you start seeing these more frequently, it may be
an indication of tow water pressure or the water
filter needs to be replaced. As the water filter nears
the end of its useful life and becomes clogged with
particles, less water is delivered to the ice maker
during each cycle. Remember, if it's been six (6)
months or longer since you last changed your water
filter, replace the water filter with a new one. Poor
quality household water may require the filter to be
changed more frequently.
