in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer

 

 

compartment temperature, room

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

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.

Troubleshooting Tips

Dispenser Cradle

Spill Shelf

To Use the Dispenser

Press the glass gently against the top of the dispenser cradle.

The spill shelf is not self-draining. To reduce water spotting, the shelf should be cleaned regularly.

If no water is dispensed when the refrigerator is first installed, there may be air in the water line system. Press the dispenser arm and run 11⁄ gallons to remove trapped air from the

2

water line and to fill the water system. To flush out impurities in the water line, throw away the first six glassfuls of water.

Locking the Dispenser

Press the LOCK pad for 3 seconds to lock the dispenser and control panel. To unlock, press and hold the pad again for 3 seconds.

Door Alarm

To set the alarm, press the DOOR ALARM pad. The indicator light will illuminate. This alarm will sound if either door is open for more than 2 minutes. The beeping stops when you close the door.
