Maintaining the Ice Bucket
To clean the ice bin/bucket, wash with a mild
detergent, rinse well, and dry thoroughly it. Do
not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Ice is made in cubes. When you select
“Crushed”, the ice maker grinds the ice cubes
into crushed ice.
When you select Cubed Ice after using the
Crushed Ice mode, a small amount of residual
crushed ice might be produced.
The ice cubes generated by the rapid ice
making process will look white, which indicates
they were generated normally.
As the ice maker in the refrigerator room
makes ice cubes even faster, move the ice
cubes from the refrigerator ice bin to the
freezer ice bin if you need more ice cubes.
If ice doesn’t come out, pull out the ice bucket
and press the test button located on the right
side of ice maker. See the illustration below.
Do not press the test button continuously
when the tray is filled with ice or water. Water
may overflow or ice may jam the bucket.
Making Ice
To fill the ice bucket to maximum capacity after
installation, follow these steps:
1. Allow your refrigerator to operate and cool
down for 24 hours (or 1 full day).
- Waiting 24 hours will allow your ice maker to
cool properly.
2. Dispense 4 to 6 ice cubes into the glass.
3. After 8, and then 16 hours, dispense a full
glass of ice.
To test the ice maker, press the Test button
on the ice maker. You will hear the refrigerator
chime (ding-dong). When the chime sounds,
release the Test button.
The chime sounds automatically again to let
you know the ice maker is working well.
If you want to remove the ice cubes
without using the ice bucket, please turn
the ice maker off and remove the ice
CAUTION
maker’s front cover from the ice maker.
Note that the ice cubes in the ice maker
can spill out over the drawer.
Do not put food in the ice bucket. If you
store food in the ice bucket, the food can
strike the ice maker when you open or
close the door, causing damage to the ice
maker.
Note that the ice cubes in the ice bucket
may spill out over the drawer when you
remove the ice bucket from the drawer. If
this occurs, be sure to clear the ice cubes
that spilled out of the drawer.
If a power failure occurs, ice cubes may
melt, and then freeze together when
the power comes back on, causing the
dispenser to stop working.
To prevent this problem, after a power failure, pull
out the ice bucket and discard the residual ice or
water.
If you use all the ice at once, you must
repeat ice making Steps 2 and 3, left.
However, only wait 8 hours before dispensing the
first 4 to 6 ice cubes. This will replenish the ice
cubes and ensure maximum ice production.
Using the Ice Off Function
When you select the Ice Off mode, remove all ice
cubes from the bucket. If you leave the ice cubes
in the bucket, the ice cubes may clump together,
making it diffi cult to remove them. To remove the
ice bucket, push the button on the upper right of
the bucket (1 in the illustration above), lift up the
bottom, and then pull out. To put the bucket back
in, push the bucket straight back until you hear a
click. If the bucket does not fi t, turn the helix 90
degree (see the last illustration on the right, above)
and try again.
