Automatic Icemaker

Safety Instructions

Power			The icemaker will produce seven cubes
Switch		Icemaker	per cycle—approximately 100–130 cubes
			in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer
			compartment temperature, room
			temperature, number of door openings
			and other use conditions.
			See below for how to access ice and reach
Green			the power switch on dispenser models.
	Feeler Arm		If the refrigerator is operated before the
Power Light
			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.

Operating Instructions Installation

Models without a shelf above the ice bin

To access ice and reach the icemaker power switch:

Lift the bin, then pull it forward until the bin stops.

Lower the bin to access ice or reach the power switch.

NOTE: In order to take full advantage of the tilt-out ice bin, only store items on the shelf below the ice bin that are no taller than the lowest point on the bin.

Accessing Ice and Reaching the Power Switch on Dispenser Models

There are two types of ice storage bins on dispenser models. One has a shelf above the bin, the other does not.

Special note about dispenser models without a shelf above the ice bin:

■These models have a tilt-out ice bin. The bin can be tilted out as shown in the illustrations, and it will hold itself up while you take ice out or turn the icemaker power switch on and off. Be sure to put the bin back in place before closing the door.

■To restore your ice level from an empty bucket stage, the following steps are recommended:

12 hours after the first batch of ice has fallen into the bin, dispense 3 to 4 cubes.

After an additional 6 hours, dispense 3 to 4 cubes again.

These steps will restore your ice level in the shortest amount of time.
