If your freezer has an automatic icemaker, it will
provide a sufcient supply of ice for normal use.
During the initial startup of your freezer, however,
no ice will be produced during the rst 24 hours
of operation.
Automatic ice makers are also optional
accessories that may be installed in some models
at any time. Call your local dealer for information.
Turning Your Ice Maker On
After the plumbing connections have been
completed, the water supply valve must be
opened. Place the ice container under the ice
maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower
the wire signal arm to its “down” or ON position.
New plumbing connections may cause the rst
production of ice cubes to be discolored or
have an odd avor. These rst cubes should be
discarded until the cubes produced are free of
discoloration and taste.
Turning Your Ice Maker Off
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until
it clicks and locks in the “up” or OFF position. The
ice maker also turns off automatically when the ice
container is full. If your model has an adjustable
freezer shelf, place the shelf in the lower position,
so that the wire signal arm will hit the ice when
the container is full.
Ice Maker Tips
• If the ice maker will be turned off for a long
period of time, turn the water supply valve
to the closed position.
• Ice cubes stored too long may develop an
odd avor. Empty the ice container and
ensure that the wire signal arm is in its
“down” or ON position. The ice maker will
then produce more ice.
• Occasionally shake the ice container to keep
ice separated.
• Keep the wire signal arm in its “up” or OFF
position until the freezer is connected to the
water supply or whenever the water supply
is turned off.
• The following sounds are normal when the
ice maker is operating:
• Motor running
• Ice loosening from tray
• Ice dropping into ice container
• Running water
• Water valve opening or closing

IMPORTANT
Your ice maker is shipped with the wire signal
arm in the ON position. To ensure proper
function of your ice maker, hook up water
supply immediately or turn ice maker OFF by
lifting the wire signal arm until it clicks and
locks in the UP position.
Check the leveling bracket on the ice maker to
ensure the ice maker is level. If the gap between
the freezer wall and the ice maker is the same
at top and bottom, then ice maker is level. If
the ice maker is not level, loosen the screw and
slide the bracket to the correct position to make
it level. Retighten the screw. You will need a ¼
inch socket wrench for this task.
CAUTION
• DO NOT place the ice container in dishwasher.
• Wash the ice container in warm water with
mild detergent. Rinse well and dry.
• Stop the ice maker when cleaning the
freezer and during vacations.
