Reverse Door Catch
1.Remove the hole plugs from the opposite side of the door and set aside.
2.Remove the screws from the magnetic door catch and replace it on the opposite side of the door.
3.Push the hole plugs into place on the opposite side of the door.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
4.Plug in ice maker or reconnect power.
Normal Sounds
Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces such as floors, walls and cabinets can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be making them.
■You will hear a buzzing sound when the water valve opens to fill the water reservoir for each cycle.
■Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line. Items stored on top of the ice maker can also make noises.
■The
■Water running over the evaporator plate may make a splashing sound.
■Water running from the evaporator plate to the water reservoir may make a splashing sound.
■As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your ice maker.
■You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.
■During the harvest cycle, you may hear a “thud” when the ice sheet slides from the evaporator onto the cutter grid.
■When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water running continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a rinse cycle before it begins to make ice.
ICE MAKER USE
How Your Ice Maker Works
When you first start your ice maker, the water pan will fill and the system will rinse itself before starting to make ice. The rinsing process takes about 5 minutes.
Under normal operating conditions, the ice maker will cycle at preset temperatures. The ice level sensor located in the ice storage bin will monitor the ice levels.
IMPORTANT:
■If the water supply to the ice maker is turned off, be sure to set the ice maker control to OFF.
■The ice maker is designed to make clear ice from the majority of water sources on a daily basis. If your results are unsatisfactory, your water may need to be filtered or treated.
The Ice Making Process
1.Water is constantly circulated over a freezing plate. As the water freezes into ice, the minerals in the water are rejected. This produces a sheet of ice with a low mineral content.
2.When the desired thickness is reached, the ice sheet is released and slides onto a cutter grid. The grid divides the sheet into individual cubes.
3.The water containing the rejected minerals is drained after each freezing cycle.
4.Fresh water enters the machine for the next ice making cycle.
5.Cubes fall into the storage bin. When the bin is full, the ice maker shuts off automatically and restarts when more ice is needed. The ice bin is not refrigerated, and some melting will occur. The amount of melting varies with room temperature.
NOTE: As the room and water temperatures vary, so will the amount of ice produced and stored. This means that higher operating temperatures result in reduced ice production.
