Information about your ice maker
Your automatic ice maker will produce approximately eight cubes of ice every 2 – 3 hours, depending on freezer compartment temperature and number of door openings.
The ice cube tray will fill with water once the freezer has reached the correct temperature. The first cubes will normally be produced after several hours.
When cubes are frozen, they will be ejected from the ice tray into the ice storage bin. Ice making will continue until the storage bin is full.
Ice making will resume when the ice is used.
For maximum ice storage, level the stored cubes with the ice scoop provided.
Your Ice & Water product comes with a smaller ice bin inside the larger freezer bin. Attached to this is the scoop for the ice. This scoop provides hygienic access to the ice.
If a large amount of ice is required, remove the smaller storage bin and allow ice to fall into the larger bin.
If ice is not used often, old cubes will become cloudy, taste stale, will shrink and may stick together. Empty the ice storage bin periodically, wash in lukewarm water, dry thoroughly and place back in the correct position.
