Notice
● Amount of stored ice is automatically detected by the stored ice amount detecting lever of the
Automatic ice maker which cannot be seen usually.

specifi ed level and it restarts making ice when the amount is below the level.

Automatic ice maker may stop making ice before the amount of stored ice is enough.
