OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
A
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 stuck together .
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale, and shrink.
NOTE: If the cube size is smaller or larger than you expected, you can regulate the size with the cube size button. (nomally caused by variations in water pressure.)
Every time you press the cube size button, the indicator light go up. The higher position light is on, the larger cubes will be. (1st step is the next after the 5th step.)
WHEN YOU SHOULD SET THE ICEMAKER POWER SWITCH TO O (OFF)

NORMAL SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR
The icemaker water valve will buzz as 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. To stop the buzzing, move the power switch to O (off).
NOTE: Keeping the power switch in the I (on) position before the water line is connected can damage the icemaker.
You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills.
PREPARING FOR VACATION
The icemaker will produce 5 pcs cubes per cycle approximately
If the refrigerator is used 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 icemaker will fill with water when it cools to freezing.
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.
Set the icemaker power switch to O (off) and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator.
If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified servicer drain the water supply system (on some models) to prevent serious property damage due to flooding from ruptured water lines or connections.
