Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin
To Remove the Ice Storage Bin:
1. Hold the base of the storage bin and press the release button.
2. Pull out the storage bin.
To Replace the Ice Storage Bin:
IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to turn the auger driver, behind
the ice bin, counterclockwise to properly align the ice bin with the
auger driver. The ice storage bin must be locked in place for
proper ice dispensing.
1. Slide the ice bin into the guide rails located on either side of
the enclosure.
2. Push the ice bin in until resistance is felt. Raise the front
slightly and push the ice bin in until an audible “click” is heard.
Ice Production Rate
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
■ The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period.
■ To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See “Using the Controls.” Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
NOTE: Setting the freezer to a colder temperature may make
some foods, such as ice cream, harder.
Remember
■ The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals
(such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to
poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided,
make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well
maintained.
■ Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This
can cause damage to the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.
■ Do not store anything in the ice storage bin.
Water and Ice Dispensers
IMPORTANT:
■ After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing
the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy container
to depress and hold the water dispenser pad for 5 seconds,
then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to
flow. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and
releasing the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off)
until a total of 4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed. This will flush
air from the filter and water dispensing system, and prepare
the water filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in
some households. As air is cleared from the system, water
may spurt out of the dispenser.
■ Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water.
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
■ The dispensing system will not operate when the refrigerator
door is open.
Calibrate Measured Fill
Household water pressure may affect the accuracy of the
Measured Fill feature. So, for optimum performance of your water
dispenser, you must first calibrate Measured Fill.
IMPORTANT: Flush the water system before calibrating Measured
Fill.
1. Place a sturdy measuring cup (1 cup [237 mL] size) on the
dispenser tray centered in front of the water dispenser paddle.
NOTE: Depending on your model, a measuring cup may be
provided.
2. Press and hold the OPTIONS and LOCK buttons at the same
time for 3 seconds. The words “Back” and “1 Cup” will appear
on the display screen. Also, the Calibrate Measured Fill icon
will illuminate and remain lit while the Measured Fill feature is
being calibrated.
