Ice Storage Bin

To remove:

Lift up the access door to reach the icemaker. Set the icemaker power switch to the O (off) position. With the access door closed, support the storage bin at the bottom while slightly lifting. Pull bin straight out.

To replace:

Slide the bin back until the tab on the bin locks into the slot on the shelf. If the bin does not go all the way back, remove it and rotate the drive mechanism 1/4 turn. Then push the bin back again.

Important facts about your ice and water dispenser

Do not add ice from trays or bags to the storage bin. It may not crush or dispense well.

Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of narrow or extra-tall glasses. Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause the door in the chute to freeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute, poke it through with a wooden spoon.

Beverages and foods should not be quick-chilled in the ice storage bin. Cans, bottles or food packages in the storage bin may cause the icemaker or auger to jam.

To keep dispensed ice from missing the glass, put the glass close to, but not touching, the dispenser opening.

Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you selected CUBED. This happens occasionally when a few cubes accidentally get directed to the crusher.

After crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from the chute.

The first glass of water dispensed may be warmer than the following ones. This is normal.

Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips

Automatic Icemaker

A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12–24 hours to begin making ice.

The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle—approximately 15 cycles or more 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, set the power switch to O (off).

When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, set the power switch to I (on). The green light will come on.

Throw away the first full bucket of ice.

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.

After the icemaker has been turned on again, there will be a delay of about 45 minutes before the icemaker resumes operations.

NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water pressure, you may hear the icemaker water valve cycle on several times when making one batch of ice. Recommended water pressure is 60 psi.

48, 42 specifications

The GE 42 and GE 48 are two state-of-the-art aircraft engines produced by General Electric, renowned within the aerospace sector for their advanced technologies and high-efficiency performance. These engines, designed primarily for commercial and military aviation, exemplify GE's commitment to innovation in the world of jet propulsion.

One of the distinguishing features of the GE 42 is its high bypass ratio, which allows for reduced fuel consumption and lower emissions during operation. This characteristic directly contributes to the engine's environmental efficiency, making it a favorite among airlines looking to minimize their carbon footprint while maximizing fuel economy. The GE 42 is equipped with advanced composite fan blades and fan cases, which contribute to its robust performance while maintaining a lightweight structure.

On the other hand, the GE 48 boasts similar high bypass ratio features but comes with slightly enhanced performance metrics suitable for larger aircraft. The GE 48 utilizes cutting-edge digital technologies, including predictive maintenance systems, enabling real-time monitoring of engine performance. This capability allows operators to make informed decisions about maintenance schedules and operational efficiency.

Both engines employ the latest in additive manufacturing, allowing for complex parts to be produced with a high degree of precision and reduced waste. This not only enhances performance but also lowers production costs, ensuring that GE remains competitive in the market. Additionally, both the GE 42 and GE 48 feature improved aerodynamics, with specially designed turbine blades that optimize airflow, thereby boosting overall efficiency.

The durability of these engines is another notable highlight. They are designed to withstand extreme operational conditions, ensuring reliability whether used for long-haul flights or military missions. Engine life extends through advanced materials that can endure high temperatures and stresses, making them suitable for various applications.

In conclusion, the GE 42 and GE 48 stand out in the aviation industry for their innovative technologies and characteristics. Their high bypass ratios, use of advanced materials, digital monitoring systems, and aerodynamic designs make them exemplary choices for modern aviation needs, catering to both commercial and military sectors while focusing on sustainability and performance. As aviation technology continues to evolve, these engines remain at the forefront, embodying the future of flight.
