2.To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure the ice maker will not continue to operate.

MAX

NORMAL

To remove and replace the ice storage bucket:

1.Hold the base of the storage bin with both hands and press the release button to lift the storage bin up and out.

NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the OFF (right) position when removing the storage bin. The sensor cover (“flipper door”) on the left wall of the freezer stops the ice maker from producing ice if the door is open or the storage bin is removed.

2.Replace the storage bin on the door and push down to make sure it is securely in place.

To increase ice production rate:

Normal Ice Production: In normal ice production mode, the ice maker should produce approximately 7 to 9 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If ice is not being made fast enough, turn the Freezer Control toward a higher (colder) number in half number steps. (For example, if the control is at 3, move it to between 3 and 4.) Wait 24 hours between each increase.

Maximum Ice Production (on some models): In maximum ice production, the ice maker should produce approximately 10 to 14 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If your refrigerator has the maximum ice production feature, push the switch to MAX.

To remove and replace ice storage bin:

1.Pull the covering panel out from the bottom and then slide it back toward the rear.

2.Lift the wire shutoff arm so it clicks into the OFF (up) position. Ice can still be dispensed, but no more can be made.

3.Lift up the front of the storage bin and pull it out.

4.Replace the bin by pushing it in all the way or the dispenser will not work. Push the wire shutoff arm down to the ON position to restart ice production. Make sure the door is closed tightly.

Style 2

To turn the ice maker on/off:

The ON/OFF switch is located on the top right side of the freezer compartment.

1.To turn the ice maker on, slide the control to the ON (left) position.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The ice maker sensors will automatically stop ice production, but the control will remain in the ON (left) position.

2.To manually turn the ice maker off, slide the control to the OFF (right) position.

Clean the ice storage bin or bucket

1.Empty the ice container. Use warm water to melt the ice if necessary.

NOTE: Never use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin or bucket. This can cause damage to the ice container and the dispenser mechanism.

2.Wash ice bin or bucket with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents.

REMEMBER

Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice.

Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid impurities that may be flushed out of the system.

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.

It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners. They will break apart easily.

For Style 1 ice maker, do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.

Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice storage bin/bucket.
