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.

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.

The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to freezing. A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes.

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.

If ice cubes get stuck in the icemaker, the green power light will blink. To correct this, set the power switch to O (off) and remove the cubes. Set the power switch to I (on) to restart the icemaker.

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

Preparing for Vacation

Set the icemaker power switch to O (off) and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator.

If the temperature can drop below freezing, have a qualified servicer drain the water supply system (on some models) to prevent serious property damage due to flooding.

When you should set the icemaker power switch to O (off)

When the ice storage bin is removed for more than a minute or two.

When the water supply will be shut off for several hours.

When the refrigerator will not be used for several days.

Normal sounds you may hear

The icemaker water valve will buzz when the icemaker fills with water. If the power switch is in the I (on) position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. Keeping the power switch in the

I (on) position before it is hooked up to water can damage the icemaker. To prevent this, move the power switch to the O (off) position. This will stop the buzzing.

The sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills.
