Ice maker operation & care

(select models)

After the refrigerator is installed properly, the ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours. It can completely fill an ice bin in about three (3) days.

When using the ice maker for the first time and in order for the ice maker to work properly, it is necessary to clear air from water filter tubing. Once ice maker begins making ice, allow the bucket to fill completely, then discard the first TWO (2) FULL buckets of ice. It will take at least two (2) days to completely fill the bucket on regular ice making mode or 1 1/2 days on fast ice mode.

The ice maker produces approximately four (4) pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.

IMPORTANT

Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you cannot connect a water supply, lift the ice maker’s wire signal arm to turn it off. Otherwise, the ice maker’s fill valve may make a loud chattering noise when it attempts to operate without water.

Turning the ice maker on and off

Ice production is controlled by lifting/lowering the ice maker’s wire signal arm. To gain access to the ice maker, pull the freezer drawer out. Lift the wire signal arm to turn the ice maker OFF and lower the wire signal arm to turn it ON.
