Power		Automatic Icemaker (on some models)
Switch	Icemaker	The icemaker will produce seven cubes 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 the

Power Light		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 power light will turn green
		when the freezer light switch is pressed in or when
		the freezer door is closed.
		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.

NOTE: Set the power switch to the O (off) position if the water supply is shut off.
