Ice Maker Operation

(on some models)

After the freezer section reaches normal freezer temperature, the ice maker fills with water and begins forming ice. Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Ice maker should then produce approximately 7 to 9 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid impurities that may be flushed out of the system.

After ice is made, the ice cubes drop into the storage bin. When ice storage bin is full, ice maker arm raises to the “OFF” position (arm up). If ice is not needed, you can stop the ice maker by raising the arm to the “OFF” position (arm up). Listen for a click sound to be sure that the ice maker will not continue to operate.

To start ice maker, lower arm to the “ON” position (arm down). Do not force arm up or down. Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice storage bin.

■The ON/OFF lever for the ice maker is a wire signal arm located on the side of the ice maker. Push the arm down to start making ice automatically, and push it up to shut off the ice maker.

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

■The ice maker will not operate until the freezer is cold enough to make ice. This can take as long as overnight.

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

REMEMBER:

■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.
