Using your ice maker
Information about your ice maker
Your automatic ice maker will produce approximately eight cubes of ice every 2 – 3 hours,
depending on freezer compartment temperature and number of door openings.
The ice cube tray will fill with water after the freezer has reached the correct temperature. First
cubes will normally freeze after several hours.
When cubes are frozen, they will be ejected from the mould into the ice storage bin.
Ice making will continue until the storage bin is full.
Ice making will resume when the ice is used.
For maximum ice storage, level the stored cubes with the ice scoop.
Your Ice & Water product comes with a smaller ice bin inside the larger freezer bin. Attached to
this is a scoop for the ice.
If a large amount of ice is required, remove the smaller storage bin and allow ice to fall into the
larger bin.
If ice is not used often, old cubes will become cloudy and taste stale and will shrink. Empty the
ice storage bin periodically and wash in lukewarm water. Dry thoroughly and place back.
Important!
Avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, and do not place your fingers on
the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
Do not use ice cubes that may have become discoloured, usually with a green-blue colour. If such
dis-colouration is noted, discard the ice cubes and contact your local authorized service centre.
Ensure the ice maker is connected to the filter and to a drinkable water supply only.
Installation of the water connection to the ice maker must be completed by a qualified service
technician (see installation instructions).
