Connect the ice maker to the water supply as instructed in
the installation instructions.
Proper water flow and a level
refrigerator are essential for optimal ice maker performance.
Operating Instructions
• Confirm ice bin is in place and ice
maker arm is down.
• After freezer section reaches
between 0° to 2° F (-18° to -17°
C), ice maker fills with water
and begins operating. You will
have a complete harvest of ice
approximately every three hours.
• Allow approximately 24 hours after installation to receive first
harvest of ice.
• Discard ice created within first 12 hours of operation to assure
system is flushed of impurities.
• Stop ice production by raising ice maker arm until click is heard.
• Ice maker will remain in the off position until arm is pushed
down.
• The first one or two batches will probably contain undersized
and irregular cubes because of air in the supply line.
• When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for several cubes to
be joined together at the ends. They can easily be broken apart.
The ice maker will continue to make ice until the supply of ice
cubes raises the ice maker arm, shutting the ice maker off.
• Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of the ice
maker. The motor may have a slight hum, the cubes will rattle
as they fall into an empty storage pan and the water valve may
click or “buzz” occasionally.
• If the ice is not used frequently, the ice cubes will become
cloudy, shrink, stick together and taste stale. Empty the ice
storage bin periodically and wash it in lukewarm water. Be sure
to dry the bin thoroughly before replacing it.
• Beverages and foods should not be placed in the ice storage
bin for quick chilling. These items can block the ice maker arm,
causing the ice maker to malfunction.
• Turn off (arm up) the ice maker when the water supply is to be
shut off for several hours.
To Remove the Ice Bin:
• Pull it forward, away from the ice maker. To avoid the ice maker
dumping ice while the bin is removed, turn the ice maker off by
raising the icemaker arm.
To Install the Ice Bin:
• Reverse the above procedure. Turn the ice maker on by
lowering the ice maker arm.
CAuTION
To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe the
following:
•
Do not place fingers or hands
on the automatic ice making
mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in. This will
help protect you from possible injury. It will also prevent
interference with moving parts of the ejector mechanism
and the heating element that releases the cubes.
•
Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may be
discolored, usually appearing with a green-bluish hue. The
cause of this unusual discoloration can be a combination
of factors such as certain characteristics of local waters,
household plumbing and the accumulation of copper salts
in an inactive water supply line which feeds the ice maker.
Continued consumption of such discolored ice cubes may
be injurious to health. If such discoloration is observed,
discard the ice cubes and contact your dealer to purchase
and install a water line filter.
•
Water damage due to improper water connection may
cause mold/mildew growth.
•
Clean up water and ice spills to avoid personal injury and to
prevent mold/mildew growth.
Water Dispenser
The Water Dispenser is located on the left
side wall of the fresh food section. This
design is for cold water dispensing only.
To Dispense Water:
• Hold container under spout and press
dispenser pad.
