CLEANING THE ICE DISPENSER

Clean the dispenser and ice container at regular intervals, particularly before you take a vacation or move, or if the ice dispenser sticks.

1.Stop ice production by lifting the wire signal arm to the "up" or OFF position.

2.Remove ice container by lifting up and out. Empty and

carefully clean the container with mild detergent. Rinse with clear water. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. Allow ice

container to dry completely before replacing in the freezer.

3.Remove ice chips and clean the shelf and chute that supports the ice container.

4.Replace the ice container. Lower the wire signal arm on the ice maker to the "down" or ON position and the ice maker will resume production.

Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:

1.An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice storage bin to melt and freeze together and jam the dispenser mechanism.

\\	2. The ice dispenser is not used frequently. Ice cubes will freeze
	together in the bin and jam the dispenser mechanism.
	Remove the ice storage bin and shake to loosen the cubes.
	NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to break up
	the ice. This could damage the ice storage bin and dispenser
	mechanism.
