There are two types of icemakers: power switch models and feeler arm models.
If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to 0 (off) or move the feeler arm to the STOP (up) position.
When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, set the power switch to the I (on) position or move the feeler arm to the ON (down) position. On power switch models, the green light will come on.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to 15°F. A
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 several cubes to be joined together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
On power switch models, the green power light will blink if ice cubes get stuck in the icemaker. To correct this, set the power switch to 0 (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 operation.

Water Filter Accessory
The water filter is an option at extra cost and is available from your dealer. Specify WR97X0214. It has complete installation instructions and installs on 1/4″ O.D. copper water line or plastic tubing that is included in a GE SmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing kit. When using the plastic tubing, an additional piece of plastic tubing (WX08X10002) must also be ordered since the plastic tubing should not be cut.
NOTE: The only GE approved plastic tubing is that supplied in GE SmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing kits. Do not use any other plastic water supply line because the line is under pressure at all times.
Certain types of plastic will crack or rupture with age and cause water damage to your home.
