Ice cube trays.. .

If cubes are not used, they may shrink. The moving cold air starts a slow evaporation. The longer cubes are stored, the smaller they get.

Optional automatic ice maker.. .

If you have the automatic ice maker accessory or plan to add one later (Part No. ECKMF-61). there are a few things you will want to know:

l The ON/OFF lever is a wire signal arm. Down...for making ice automatically; Up...toshut off the ice maker.

To remove ice:

1.Hold tray at both ends.

2.Slightly twist.

The ice maker will not operate until the freezer is cold enough to make ice. This can take overnight. Because of new plumbing connections, the first ice may be discolored OToff-flavored. Discard the first few batches of ice.

Your ice maker will work faster when the freezer is colder. If you want rnme ice, turn the Temperature Control to a higher number, or turn the Air Control to a higher number.

If you remove the ice bin, raise the signal arm to shut off the ice maker. When you return the bin, push it all the way in and lower the arm to the ON position.

If cubes are stored too long, they may develop an off-flavor...like stale water. Throw them away. They will be replaced. Cubes in the ice bin can also become smaller by evaporation.

Good water quality is important for good ice quality It is not recommended that the ice maker be con- nected to a softened water supply Water softener chemicals such as salt from a malfunctioning soft- ener can damage the ice maker mold and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, then it is important that the water soft- ener be well maintained and operating properly
