Ice Production Rate
The ice maker should produce a complete batch of ice
approximately every 3 hours.
To increase ice production, lower the freezer and
refrigerator temperature. See "Using the Controls." Wait
24 hours between adjustments.
Remember
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow
3 days to completely fill the ice storage bin. 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.

REFRIGERATOR FEATURES

Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.

Refrigerator Shelves

The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to meet your
individual storage needs.
Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and
adjusting the shelves to fit different heights of items will make
finding the exact item you want easier. It will also reduce the
amount of time the refrigerator door is open, and save energy.

1. Remove the shelf/frame by tilting it up at the front and
lifting it out of the shelf supports.
2. Replace the shelf/frame by guiding the rear shelf hooks into
