Automatic Ice and Water Dispenser
Do not use the ice chute as a handle when removing or replacing the ice storage bin. Surfaces there may be sharp.
Do not put fingers up ice chute. Surfaces there may be sharp.
CLEANING THE ICE DISPENSER
Clean the dispenser and ice container at regular intervals, particularly before you take a vacation or move, or if the ice dispenser sticks.
1.Turn off ice production by pressing the ice maker’s On/Off switch.
2.Remove ice container by lifting up and out. Empty and carefully clean the container with mild detergent. Rinse with clear water. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. Allow ice container to dry completely before replacing in the freezer.
3.Remove ice chips and clean the shelf and chute that supports the ice container.
4.Replace the ice container. Press the ice maker’s On/Off switch to resume ice production.
IMPORTANT: When removing or replacing the ice bin, do not rotate the auger in the ice bin. If the auger is accidentally turned, you must realign the auger by turning it in 90° turns until the ice bin fits into place with the drive mechanism.
Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:
1.An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice storage bin to melt and freeze together and jam the dispenser mechanism.
2.The ice dispenser is not used frequently. Ice cubes will freeze together in the bin and jam the dispenser mechanism. Remove the ice storage bin and shake to loosen the cubes.
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to break up the ice. This could damage the ice storage bin and dispenser mechanism.
