Ice & Chilled Water
Dispemer
(continued)
To Stop
Dispensi~
Release pressure from cradle and
withdraw slowly to catch last ice
cubes or drops of water.
Some slight dripping may occur
following dispensing of chilled
water. If excessive, the spill should
be wiped dry immediately.
Do not pour water in spill shelf
because it is not
self-draining—
pour it in kitchen sink. The shelf
and its grille should be cleaned
regularly according to instructions
on page 13.
If Ice Clumps Form in
Sto~e
Bin...
The
Icemaker
ejects cubes in
groups of eight, and it is normal for
several cubes to be joined together.
However, if you don’t use the ice
very often, ice clumps may form in
the storage bin and can clog the
dispenser.
If this happens:
●
Remove storage bin from freezer
compartment.
●
Break up ice clumps with
fingertip pressure and discard
remaining clumps.
●
Replace bin before remaining
cubes melt and fuse together.
To Remove Ice Cube
StorWe
Bin
Lift the left corner to free the bin
from the shelf and pull the bin
straight out, supporting
it
at front
and back.
To Replace Ice Cube
Sto~e
Bin...
Slide the bin back until the
tib
on
the bin locks into the slot in the
shelf.
If bin does not go all the way
back, remove it and rotate the drive
mechanism 1/4 turn. Then push bin
back again until the tab on the bin
locks
into the slot in the
shelf.
If Ice Is Not Used Often . . .
Old ice cubes will become cloudy
and taste stale. Empty ice storage
bin periodically and wash it in
lukewarm water. Be sure to allow
storage bin to cool before replacing
it—otherwise ice cubes will stick
to the metal auger.

You’ll hear occasional sounds that
may be unfamiliar. These are normal
icemaking sounds and are not
cause for concern.

m.
Your ice cubes can only
be as fresh-tasting as the
water that produces them.
That’s why it’s a good
idea
to
purify your water
with a water filter.
Its activated charcoal
removes musty, stale
odors and unpleasant
medicinal, metallic
tastes. A porous fiber
cartridge-catches dirt,
1
rust particles, sand and
Y
silt, while special
crysmls

reduce deposits of hard scale.
The
filter is an option at extra
cost, available from your
Hotpoint
dealer. Specify
