HOWTO USE
Automatic
Icemaker
(continued)
CAUTION
* The
first
ice
produced
may
include
particles
or odor
from
the water
supply
line or the water
tank.
* Throw
away
the first
few batches
of ice
(about
24 cubes).
This
is also necessary
if the refrigerator
has not been
used for a
long time.
Never
store
beverage
cans
or
other
items
in the
ice bin
for the
purpose
of
rapid
cooling.
Doing
so may damage

or the containers
may burst.
If discolored
ice
is dispensed,
check
the water
filter
and water
supply.
If the
problem
continues,
contact
a qualified
service
center.
Do not
use the
ice or
water
until the problem
is corrected.
Be sure nothing
interferes
with
the sweep
of the automatic
shut off arm.
It is normal
for some
cubes
to be stuck
together.
If ice is not used frequently,
old ice cubes
will
become
cloudy,
taste
stale,
and
shrink.
* Never use thin
crystal
glass or crockery
to
collect
ice. Such containers
may chip
or
break
resulting
in glass fragments
in the
ice.
When
You Should
Turn the
Icemaker

will
be shut
off
for several
