Priming the water supply system
Forproper dispenser operation, recommended water
supply pressure should fall between 30 psi and 100 psi.
Excessivepressure may cause water filter to malfunction.
1
Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a
drinking glass against the water dispenser paddle.
2
Keep the glass in this position until water comes out
of the dispenser. It
may take about
11/2
minutes,
Continue dispensing
water for about four
(4) minutes to flush the
system and plumbing
connections of any
impurities (stopping
to empty the glass as
necessary).
Turning off the ice maker will result in existing ice melting
in the bin.
Turning off the ice maker will disable the ice dispenser.
YOUwill sti!l be able to disPense water........................................................
The ice maker also has a built-in plasticsignal arm that
automatically stops iceproduction when the ice bin isfull. This
signal arm should not be used to manually stop the ice maker.
Using the ice maker after
installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the
water supply system. Air in new plumbing lines can result
in two (2) or three (3) empty ice maker cycles. Furthermore,
if the system is not flushed, the first ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor.
The water dispenser hasa builbin device that shuts off the
water flow after three (3) minutes of continuous use. To reset
this shutoff device, simply releasethe dispenser paddle.
Ice maker operation & care
After the refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled
for several hours, the ice maker can produce ice within 24
hours. The ice maker will fill the ice bin from the rear. You
must dispense some ice to force the ice forward in the bin.
This will allow the bin to fill completely.
Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can work
On occasion, unusually small ice cubes may be noticed in
the bucket or in dispensed ice. This could occur in normal
operation of the ice maker. If you start seeing these more
frequently, it may be an indication of low water pressure
or the water filter needs to be replaced. As the water filter
nears the end of its useful life and becomes clogged with
particles, less water is delivered to the ice maker during
each cycle. Remember, if it's been six (6) months or longer
"since you last changed your water filter, replace the water
filter with a new one. Poor quality household water may
require the filter to be changed more frequently.
as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you cannot
connect a water supply, set the ice maker's On/Off icon to
Off and turn off the water supply valve; otherwise, the ice
maker's fill valve may make a loud chattering noise when
it attempts to operate without water.
