Priming the water supply system
For proper dispenser operation, recommended water
supply pressure should fall between 30 psi and 100
psi. Excessive pressure 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
7"
position until water
comes out of the
dispenser, It may
take about
1_/2
minutes,
3
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).
The water dispenser has a built-in device that shuts off
the water flow after three (3) minutes of continuous
use. To reset this shutoff device, simply release the
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
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.
Turning the ice maker on and off
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's On/Off
icon on the control panel. Press and hold the "Ice Off"
icon for three (3) seconds to turn the ice maker "ON" or
"OFF". Where the ice maker is "OFF" the red LED above
the icon will be illuminated.
Turning off the ice maker will result in existing ice
Turning off the ice maker will disable the ice dispenser.
You wi!l still be ab!e to dispense water. ......................................
The ice maker also has a built-in plastic signal bale arm
that automatically
stops ice production when the ice bin
is full. 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,
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.
