The freezer compartment of your refrigerator is equipped with ice cube trays and an ice storage bin. The bin is designed to stack neatly on top of the stacked ice cube trays. To release the ice cubes from a tray, hold the tray
upside down over the bin and twist both ends.
Your refrigerator is automatic ice maker ready. The number for the ice maker kit you need appears on the data plate (see page 1).

sure to dry the bin before replacing it or the ice cubes will stick to the metal auger.
To check the ice level or gain access to the ice bin, lift open the door on the ice maker.
To remove the bin, reach under the bin front and pull down on the back edge. After it snaps free, pull the bin straight forward. To avoid the ice maker dumping ice while the bin
is removed turn the ice maker off by lifting the wire lever. To replace the ice bin, align the bottom rails to the corre-
sponding shelf grooves and push it straight back until it stops and latches. Make sure the tabs, at the back of the bin, that turn the spiral auger are positioned between the prongs from the auger motor. Turn the ice maker on by lowering the wire arm.
Beverages and foods should not be placed in the ice storage bin for quick chilling. These items can block the wire lever arm, causing the ice maker to malfunction.

After your refrigerator has been connected to the water sup- ply, move the wire lever arm into the down position. This will start its operation. The ice maker will fill with water when the freezer reaches the proper temperature. It may be
8 to 12 hours before the ice maker furnishes any usable ice cubes.
Discard all the cubes from the first two or three batches made. These initial ice cubes may be irregularly shaped, discolored, or contain impurities from the new water supply
piping.
When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for several cubes to be joined together at the ends. They can easily be broken apart. The ice maker will continue to make ice until the sup-
ply of ice cubes raises the wire lever arm, shutting the ice maker off.
To manually stop the operation of the ice maker, move the wire lever arm into the up position,
Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of the ice maker,
•buzzing of the water valve
•running of the water as the tray fills
•rattling of the ice cubes falling into an empty ice bin.
If the ice is not used frequently, the ice cubes will become cloudy, shrink, stick together and taste stale. Empty the ice

local waters, household plmnbing and the accumula- tion of copper salts in an inactive water supply line
which feeds the ice maker.
Continued consumption of such discolored ice cubes may be injurious to health. If such discoloration is
observed, discard the ice cubes and contact your deal- er from whom the refrigerator was purchased.
