To Prime The Water Supply System:

1.Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a drinking glass against the water dispenser button.

2.Keep the glass in this position until water comes out of the dispenser. There will be noticeable spurts and sputters as the system pushes air out through the system and

dispensing spout. This is normal. This may take about 1V2 minutes.

3.Continue dispensing water for about 3 minutes to flush the system of any air and impurities. Empty glass as needed.

ICE MAKER

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, it will provide a sufficient supply of ice for normal use. During the initial startup of your refrigerator, no ice will be produced during the first 24 hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle two or three times before making a full tray

of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately one to two days to fill the ice container.

New plumbing connections may cause the first production of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor. Discard ice

made during the first 24 hours.

TURNINGYOUR

To stop the ice maker, lift the wire

 

signal arm until it clicks and

 

locks in the "up" or OFF position.

The ice maker also turns off

 

automatically when

container is full. If your model

 

has an adjustable freezer shelf,

 

place the shelf in the lower

position, so that the wire signal

 

arm will hit the ice when the

 

container is full.

160 minutes.

 

 

TURNINGYOUR ICE MAKER ON

After the plumbing connections have been completed, the water supply valve must be opened. Place the ice container under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower the wire signal arm to its "down" or ON position.
