If the freezer compartment door is open, make sure the inside flap is not blocked as it serves as lock sensor that shuts off the transfer of ice from the automatic ice maker into the bucket installed in the door.

To remove and replace the ice bucket:

1.Place four fingers in bucket base opening and rest thumb on the release button.

2.Holding the base of the bucket with both hands, press the release button and lift the bucket up and out. It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the OFF position. The ice maker will not produce ice without the

bucket installed in the door.

Normal Ice Production should produce approximately 7 to 9 batches of ice in a 24-hour period.

Ice bucket care:

1.Empty the bucket. Use warm water to melt the ice if necessary. Never use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bucket. This can cause damage to the ice bucket and the dispenser mechanism.

2.Wash the ice bucket with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry thoroughly.

Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents.

NOTE: Do not turn the ice maker on until it is connected to the water supply.

It is normal for ice cubes to be stick together at the corners. They can be separated easily.

The ice maker will not operate until the freezer compartment is cold enough to make ice.

This can take overnight.

Good water quality is important for good ice quality. Water softener chemicals such as salt can damage the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice.
