AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER
After the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, move the wire lever
arm on the icemaker into the down
(ON) position to start its operation.The
icemaker will fill with water when the
freezer reaches the proper temperature.
It may be 8 to 12 hours before the ice-
maker furnishes any usable ice cubes.
Discard all the cubes from the first two or
three batches made.These initial ice cubes
may be irregularly shaped, discolored, or
contain impurities from the new water
supply piping.
When the ice cubes are ejected it is
normal for several cubes to be joined
together at the ends. They can easily be
broken apart. The icemaker will continue
to make ice until the supply of ice cubes
raises the wire lever arm, shutting the ice-
maker off.
To manually stop the operation of the ice-
maker, move the wire lever arm into the
up (OFF) position.
Certain sounds may accompany the var-
ious cycles of the icemaker.
• buzzing of the water valve
• running of the water as the tray fills
• rattling of the ice cubes falling into an
empty ice bin.
If the ice is not used frequently, the ice
cubes will become cloudy, shrink, stick
together and taste
stale. Empty the ice
storage bin periodically
and wash it in luke-
warm water. Rinse and
dry thoroughly.
ICE BIN
To check the ice level or gain access to
the ice bin, lift the door on the bin.
TO REMOVE THE BIN:
•Turn off the icemaker by moving the
icemaker wire lever arm up to the OFF
position.
•While holding the top edge of the ice
bin, grasp the lower edge of the ice bin
and pull down to release the latch, then
pull ice bin out.
•Reverse procedure to replace the ice
bin.
•Turn the icemaker on by lowering the
wire lever arm.
Note:
Beverages and foods should NOT be
placed in the ice storage bin for quick
chilling.These items can block the wire
lever arm, causing the icemaker to mal-
function.
To avoid personal injury or prop-
erty damage, observe the fol-
lowing:
• Do not place fingers or hands
on the automatic ice making
mechanism while the refriger-
ator is plugged in.This will help
protect you from possible
injury. It will also prevent inter-
ference with moving parts of
the ejector mechanism and the
heating element that releases
the cubes.
• Under certain rare circum-
stances, ice cubes may be dis-
colored, usually appearing with
a green-bluish hue.The cause of
this unusual discoloration can
be a combination of factors
such as certain characteristics
of local waters, household
plumbing and the accumulation
of copper salts in an inactive
water supply line which feeds
the ice maker. Continued con-
sumption of such discolored ice
cubes may be injurious to
health. If such discoloration is
observed, discard the ice cubes
and contact your dealer to pur-
chase and install a water line
filter.
•Water damage due to
improper water connection
may cause mold/mildew
growth.
• Clean up water and ice spills to
avoid personal injury and to
prevent mold/mildew growth.
