Tests the alarm.
The indicator light assures you that your freezer is running. If the
indicator light is not glowing, immediately check for:
• Power interruption.
• An unplugged power cord.
• An open circuit breaker or blown fuse.
• A burned out indicator light.
NOTE: The ice maker kit must be purchased separately from
your authorized Whirlpool dealer. Ice maker kit part number is
EC KM F94.
To Turn the Ice Maker On/Off
NOTE: Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
• To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is
made, the ice cubes fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes
will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position.
• To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shutoff arm to
the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure
the ice maker will not continue to operate.
Shut Off Arm
When installing the ice maker kit, part number ECKMF94, it is
necessary to replace the shut off arm that is included with the kit,
with the longer one supplied with the freezer.
Portable Ice Bin
The ice bin may be used as a storage container or a portable ice
bucket.
The lid must be open when used as an ice bin.
Close the lid to use as a portable ice bucket or storage container.
Ice Production Rate
The ice maker should produce approximately 7 to 9 batches of
ice in a 24-hour period. If ice is not being made fast enough, turn
the Temperature Control toward a higher (colder) number in half
number steps. (For example, if the control is at 3, move it to
between 3 and 4.) Wait 24 hours and, if necessary, gradually turn
the Temperature Control to the highest setting, waiting 24 hours
between each increase.
Remember
• 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.
