Ice Production Rate
Normal Ice Production: The ice maker should produce a
complete batch of ice every 3 hours. If ice is not being made
fast enough, adjust the Freezer Control to a lower (colder)
number in steps. Wait 24 hours. If necessary, gradually adjust
the Freezer Control to the lowest setting, waiting 24 hours
between each adjustment.
Optimlce Production (on some models): The ice maker
should produce approximately 16 to 20 batches of ice in a
24-hour period. If your refrigerator has the Optimlce
production feature, press the Optimlce touchpad.

• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
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.
• Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin.
