Ice Dispenser
To operate apply pressure against the
dispenser bar with a glass or other con-
tainer. This activates the ice auger and
ice wheel which automatically delivers
ice to the glass.
;lease pressure on the dispenser
_r before glass is full. Do not
remove the glass until the last of the
cubes fail.
Normal Operation. Allow 4 to 12 hours
after installation for the first ice harvest
The time required will depend on the
freezer temperature and the amount of
food in the unit
The ice storage bin takes about three or
four days to fill, depending on how often
you use iL At first, your family will be
using it quite frequently
To help meet this demand, you can
speed ice production by turning the
freezer control to a colder setting.
For best overall operation of the
unit, be sure to return the freezer
control to its previous position as
soon as possibler
I1you use very littteice over a period of
a week or so -- or if you use none at all
for that period -- the ice cubes may
freeze into a solid mass and the unit wilt
not dispense ice. You must then remove
',e ice bin (follow instructions on next
lge), thaw the ice and throw it away.
Overload, if you hold the dispenser bar
in the ON position for approximately 4-5
minutes, the dispenser motor may trip
out on overload This could occur if you
were trying to fill a large container with
ice, The overload will reset automatica!ly
in approximately 3 minutes, after which
ice can again be dispensed.
IMPORTANT! UNDER NO CIRCUM-
STANCE SHOULD YOU USE AN ICE
PICK OR SIMILAR SHARP INSTRU-
MENT TO BREAK THE ICE To do this
could cause damage to the ice bin
and/or ice auger.
How the Ice Dispenser Works
Safety. All the ice making and dispens-
ing mechanisms are enclosed within
their own compartment for safety and
for maximum storage space in the
freezer section.
Whenever the freezer door is opened,
the ice dispenser mechanism is inter-
rupted. This prevents the dispensing of
ice and also insures that you can serv-
ice the ice bucket safely
Water is automatically measured into
the ice maker. When the water freezes,
a sensor initiates the ejector blades that
dump the cubes into the U-shaped harm
vester bin, where they are held in stor-
age for delivery When you push the
Dispenser Bar, a large auger gently, but
firmly, moves cubes from the bin, See
Figure 17.
