NOTE: Automatic Ice Maker feature is included only in certain models. Please check your product specification.

Personal Injury Hazard

Avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the heating element that releases the cubes. DO NOT place fingers or hands on the automatic icemaking mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.

A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.

This icemaker will produce eight cubes per cycle-- approximately 100-130 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other operating conditions.

NOTE: If the cube size is smaller or larger than you

expected, you can regulate the size with the cube size button.

Every time you press the cube size button, the indicator moves up one light. The higher the light position, the larger the cubes will be. Pressing at highest position returns indicator to lowest position.

Type 2

Ic

•Feeler Arm

This type of icemaker will produce twelve cubes per cycle approximately 80-100 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other operating conditions.

If the refrigerator is used before the water connection is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to 0 (off}.

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

The icemaker will fill with water only when it cools to freezing. A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes.

Throw away the first few batches 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 some cubes to be stuck together.

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

WHEN YOU SHOULD SET THE ICEMAKER

POWER SWITCH TO O (OFF)

•When the water supply will be shut off for several hours.

•When the ice storage bin is removed for more than a minute or two.

•When the refrigerator will not be used for several days.

NORMAL SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR

•The icemaker water valve will buzz as the icemaker fills with water. If the power switch is in the I (on) position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water.

To stop the buzzing, move the power switch to O (off). NOTE: Keeping the power switch in the I (on) position

before the water line is connected can damage the icemaker.

•You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills.

PREPARING FOR VACATION

Set the icemaker power switch to O (off) and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator.

If the surrounding air temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified servicer drain the water supply system to prevent serious property damage due to flooding from ruptured water lines or connections.
