Ice Maker and Ice Storage Bin (on some models)

IMPORTANT: To avoid low ice production and poor quality ice, flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See “Water Dispenser.”

Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced. Allow 2 to 3 days for the storage bin to fill completely following installation.

The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well maintained.

If the ice in the storage bin clumps together, break up ice using a plastic utensil and discard. Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice. This can cause damage to the ice bin and the dispenser mechanism.

Do not store anything in the ice storage bin.

Ice Production Rate

The ice maker should produce approximately 3 lbs (1.4 kg) of ice per day under normal operation.

To increase ice production, select the increased ice production feature from the Options menu on the control panel. See “Using the Control(s).”
