Whirlpool RT14EK Freezer User Manual


 
Using the ice cube trays
(RT14DK, RT14HD, and RT14GD)
If you don’t use the cubes, they may shrink.
The moving cold air starts a slow evapora-
tion. The longer you store cubes, the smaller
they get.
To remove ice:
1. Hold tray at both ends.
2. Twist slightly.
Using the automatic ice maker
(Optional on RT14DK, RT14EK, RTl4HD, and RT14GD,
factory-installed on RT14DM)
If you have an automatic ice maker, or if you
plan to add one later, there are a few things
you will want to know:
l For models RT14DK, RT14EK, RT14HD
and RT14GD: The aluminum water inlet
tube, supplied with your refrigerator, is in
the rear bottom of the refrigerator, on the
compressor support plate. Use this tube
instead of the tube provided in the acces-
sory kii.
l The ON/OFF lever is a wire signal arm.
DOWN to make ice automatically
UP to shut off the ice maker
IMPORTANT: Do not turn ice maker on
until it is connected to the water supply.
Instructions for ice maker water supply
hook up are attached to the back of the
refrigerator cabinet.
l The dial or lever on the side of the ice
maker changes the size of the cubes.
l Good water quality is important for good
ice quality. Try to avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water
softener chemicals, such as salt from a
malfunctioning softener, can damage the
ice maker mold and lead to poor ice
quality. If a softened water supply cannot
be avoided, make sure that the water
softener is well maintained and operating
properly.
