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.
If the refrigerator is operated before the
water connection is made to the icemaker,
set the power switch to
O (off)
.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, set the power switch to
I (on)
. The green light will come on.
The icemaker will fill with water when it
cools to 15°F (-10°C). 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.
If ice cubes get stuck in the icemaker, the
green power light will blink. 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
operations.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple
times when making one batch of ice.
