12–24 hours to begin making ice.

Icemaker

 

The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle—approximately 15 cycles in a 24-hour period.

If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to O (off).

When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, set the power switch to I (on).

Throw away the first full bucket of ice to allow the water line to clear.

Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the feeler arm.

When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice.

It is normal for several cubes to be joined together.

If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.

Feeler Arm

If ice cubes get stuck in the icemaker, set the power switch to O (off) and remove the cubes. Set the power switch to I (on) to restart the icemaker.

After the icemaker has been turned on again, there will be a delay of about 45 minutes before the icemaker resumes operations.

The ice bucket is conveniently located in the upper freezer basket. Occasionally ice cubes may spill out of the bucket. Should the ice cubes fall to the bottom of the freezer, they are of no concern; they will sublimate away harmlessly.

NOTE: In homes with low water pressure, you may hear the icemaker water valve cycle on several times when making one batch of ice.
