Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles ofthe ice maker. Examples are: (1) the motor may have a slighthum, (2)the cubes will rattle asthey fall into an empty storage bin, and (3) the water valve may click or "buzz" occasionally. All of these sounds are normal and should be ignored.

Note: When dispensing ice cubes, it is important that you use only the ice supplied by

thisicemaker. Icefromanyothersourcecouldcauseanicejam. Ifthis happens,remove and discard all ice from the storage bin and any ice lodged in the ice chute.

The ice maker has a wire sensor arm that is con- nected to a shut-off switch. This arm stops the mechanism when the ice cube storage bin is full,

and restarts it after several ice cubes have been used. You can use the stop arm to stop all production of ice at any time. All you needto do is raise the arm into the OFF position.

The ice maker should be turned off (arm up) when:

1. ice storage bin is to be removed for extendedperiod of time.

2. Refrigeratorisnot tobe usedfor a considerabletime, such as vacations. Also, turn off the water supplyto the ice maker in this instance,if practical.

3. Water supply is to be shut-offfor several hours.
