Ice and Water

Press the switch ON to activate ice maker. Slide bin into guide rails located on either side of the enclosure. Push the ice bin in until resistance is felt. Raise the front slightly and push the ice bin completely in. An audible “click” is heard when the ice bin is located correctly.

Operating Instructions

Confirm ice bin is in place.

After freezer section reaches between 0° to 2° F (-18° to -17° C), ice maker fills with water and begins operating. You will have a complete harvest of ice approximately every hour.

Allow approximately 3 to 6 hours after installation to receive first harvest of ice.

Discard ice created within the first 12 hours of operation to verify system is flushed of impurities.

Stop ice production by pressing the ON/OFF switch located on the front of the ice maker.

The first one or two batches will probably contain undersized and irregular cubes because of air in the supply line.

When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for several cubes to be joined together at the ends. They can easily be broken apart. The ice maker will continue to make ice until the supply of ice cubes raises the ice maker arm, shutting the ice maker off.

Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of the ice maker. The motor may have a slight hum, the cubes will rattle as they fall into an empty storage pan and the water valve may click or “buzz” occasionally.

If the ice is not used frequently, the ice cubes will become cloudy, shrink, stick together and taste stale. Empty the ice storage bin periodically and wash it in lukewarm water. Be sure to dry the bin thoroughly before replacing it.

Beverages and foods should not be placed in the ice storage bin for quick chilling. These items can cause the ice maker to malfunction.

Press the switch on the ice maker front to OFF when the water supply is to be shut off for several hours.

WARNING

To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe the following:

Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in. This will help protect you from possible injury. It will also prevent interference with moving parts of the ejector mechanism and the heating element that releases the cubes.

Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may be discolored, usually appearing with a green- bluish hue. The cause of this unusual discoloration can be a combination of factors such as certain characteristics of local waters, household plumbing and the accumulation of copper salts in an inactive water supply line which feeds the ice maker. Continued consumption of such discolored ice cubes may be injurious to health. If such discoloration is observed, discard the ice cubes and contact your dealer to purchase and install a water line filter.

Water damage due to improper water connection may cause mold/mildew growth.

Clean up water and ice spills to avoid personal injury and to prevent mold/mildew growth.

Do not dispense ice directly into thin glass, fine china or delicate crystal.
