Icemaker

The icemaker will produce seven cubes

 

 

 

per cycle—approximately 100–130 cubes

 

 

in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer

 

 

compartment temperature, room

the power switch.

 

 

If the refrigerator is operated before the

 

 

water connection is made to the icemaker,

 

 

set the power switch in the O (off) position.

 

 

When the refrigerator has been connected

 

 

to the water supply, set the power switch to

 

 

the l (on) position.

 

 

The icemaker will fill with water when it

 

 

cools to 15°F (–10°C). A newly installed

 

 

refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin

 

 

making ice cubes.

 

 

You will hear a buzzing sound each time

 

 

the icemaker fills with water.

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.

NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple times when making one batch of ice.
