Icemaker Accessory Kit

If your refrigerator did not already come

equipped with an automatic icemaker,

an icemaker accessory kit is available at

extra cost.

Check the back of the refrigerator for the

specific icemaker kit needed for your

model.

Automatic Icemaker

(on some models)

The icemaker will produce eight cubes

per cycle—approximately 100 cubes in a

24-hour period, depending on freezer

compartment temperature, room

temperature, number of door openings

and other use conditions.

If the refrigerator is operated before

the water connection is made to the

icemaker, keep the feeler arm in the

STOP

(up) position.

When the refrigerator has been

connected to the water supply, move the

feeler arm to the

ON

(down) position.

The icemaker will fill with water when it

cools to freezing. A newly-installed

refrigerator may take 8 to 12 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 swing

of the feeler arm.

It is normal for several cubes to be joined

together.

If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes

will become cloudy and taste stale.
