will continue until the feeler arm senses that there are
enough cubes in the bin and halts the operation
temporarily Be sure nothing interferes with the swing of
the feeler arm
For maximum ice storage, level the stored cubes with
your hand occasionally.
Once your icemaker is in operation, throw away
the first few batches of ice cubes. This wilt flush away
any impurities in the water line Do the same thing after
vacations or long periods when ice isn't used
CAUTION: Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes
may be discolored, usually appearing with o green-
bluish color_ This unusual discoloration is apparently due
to a combination of factors such as certain characteristics
of local waters, household p_umbing and the accumulation
of copper salts in an inactive water supply line which
feeds the icemaker. Continued consumption of such
discolored ice cubes may be iniurious to health If your
ice cubes are discolored, discard them and contact your
Sears Service Center.
Move feeler arm to STOP (up) position when:
• thehome water supply isto be off for several hours
* the ice storage bin isto Be removed for a period of time.
- going away on vacation (Also turn off the valve in the
wafer supply tine to the refrigerator..)
if ice is not used often, old cubes will become cloudy
and taste stale. Empty the ice storage bin periodically
and wash it in lukewarm water.
If this is your first icemaker, you will hear occasional
sounds that may be unfamiliar. They ore normal ice-
making sounds and are not cause for concern.

For only one or two ice
cubes, leave thetray
right-side up, twist both

as many cubes as you want.
Wash ice trays in lukewarm water only. Do not
