Ice Production
Models 245 and 249FFI
The level of ice in the ice
container is controlled by an ice
level arm. When the containers
are filled with ice, the ice level
arm senses the level and shuts
down the icemaker. As ice is
used, the level drops and the
level arm signals the icemaker to
restore ice production.
The icemaker is designed to
produce a more than adequate
supply of ice for normal family
consumption. the length of time
between ice harvest cycles will
vary depending on load
conditions, door openings and
ambient room temperatures. On
the average, you can expect a
harvest of ice every two hours.
If ice is not used regularly, it
will tend to fuse together. To
avoid this, empty the ice
container periodically.
NOTE: To shut off icemaker, lift
icemaker stop arm to the up or
off position. See illustration.
For general cleaning of the
refrigerator and freezer interior
surfaces and removable parts,
wash with a mild solution of
soap and water to which a small
amount of baking soda has been
added. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. Avoid getting water
on lights and/or control dial.
To insure proper performance,
the cleaning of your unit’s
condenser is required.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This
should be performed every 3 to 6
months under normal use and
living conditions.
To expose the condenser,
remove the kickplate at the base
of the unit. To do this, remove
the screws located at each corner
of the kickplate.
Use a "soft" bristle brush and
vacuum hose to remove the
accumulation of dust and lint
particles on the condenser.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Failure
to properly clean this area could
result in temperature lost and/or
possible mechanical failure of
the refrigerator and/or freezer.
