REMEMBER
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 3 days
to completely fill ice container.
Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid
impurities that may be flushed out of the system.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of
the water supplied to your ice maker.
Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply.
Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of
the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water
supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is
operating properly and is well maintained.
It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners.
They will break apart easily.
For Style 1 ice maker, do not force the wire shutoff arm up or
down.
Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin.
Freezer Shelf
1. Remove the shelf by lifting it up and pulling it straight out.
2. Replace the shelf by putting it over the supports and lowering
it into place.
Frozen Food Storage Guide
Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food,
the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and
moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside
a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in
the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice
crystals.
Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within
24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs. of food per cubic foot
[907-1,350 g per L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in the
freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to leave
enough room for the door to close tightly.
For more information on preparing food for freezing, check a
freezer guide or reliable cookbook.
Freezer Basket
The freezer basket can be used to store bags of frozen fruits and
vegetables that may slide off freezer shelves.
Remove and replace the freezer basket:
1. Pull the basket forward out to the stop.
2. Lift the front of the basket and slide it out the rest of the way.
3. Replace the basket by positioning it on the side wall guide
rails. Lift the basket front slightly while pushing it past the
guide rail stops and slide basket in the rest of the way.
