FEATURES
Ice Maker Storage Bin
To remove the ice bin:
1. Pull the covering panel out from the bottom and then
slide it back toward the rear.
2. Lift the signal arm so it clicks into the OFF (up) position.
Ice can still be dispensed, but no more can be made.
3. Lift up the front of the storage bin and pull it out.
4. Empty the ice bin. Use warm water to melt the ice if
necessary. Never use anything sharp to break up the
ice in the bin. This can cause damage to the bin and
the dispenser mechanism.
5. Wash with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry
thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or
solvents.
6. When you replace the bin, make sure it is pushed in
all the way or the dispenser will not work. Then push
the signal arm down to the ON position to restart ice
production. Make sure the door is closed tightly.
Water and Ice Dispensers
(on some models)
Depending on your model, you may have one or more of
the following options: the ability to select either crushed or
cubed ice, a special light that turns on when you use the
dispenser, or a lock option to avoid accidental dispensing.
The ice dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer.
When the dispenser lever is pressed:
A trapdoor opens in a chute between the dispenser
and the ice bin.
Ice moves from the bin and falls through the chute.
When you release the dispenser lever, the trap door
closes and the ice dispensing stops. The dispensing
system will not operate when the freezer door is open.
Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice.
Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer.
The button controls are designed for easy use and
cleaning.
For cubed ice, press the CUBE button until the red
indicator appears in the window above the CUBE
button.
For crushed ice, press the CRUSH button until the red
indicator appears in the window above the CRUSH
button.
For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being
dispensed. This may cause a slight delay when dispensing
crushed ice. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and
pieces of ice may vary in size. When changing from
CRUSH to CUBE, a few ounces of crushed ice will be
dispensed along with the first cubes.
WARNING
Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.
