POWER FAILURE / FREEZER FAILURE
N O T E N O T E
N O T E N O T E N O T E
Do not open freezer door unnecessarily if freezer is off for
several hours.
If a power failure occurs, frozen foods will stay frozen for at
least 24 hours if the freezer is kept closed. If the power failure
continues, pack seven or eight pounds of dry ice into the freezer
every 24 hours. Look in the Yellow Pages under Dry Ice , Dairies ,
or Ice Cream Manufacturers for local dry ice suppliers. Always
wear gloves and use caution when handling dry ice.
If the freezer has stopped operating, see Freezer Does Not
Run in the Troubleshooting Guide. If you cannot solve the
problem, call Sears Service immediately.
If the freezer remains off for several hours, follow the directions
above for the use of dry ice during a power failure. If necessary,
take the food to a local locker plant until the freezer is ready to
operate. Look in the Yellow Pages under Frozen Food Locker
Plants .

ICE SERVICE

If your freezer has an automatic ice maker, it will provide a
sufficient supply of ice for normal use. During the initial startup
of your freezer, however, no ice will be produced during the first
24 hours of operation. Automatic ice makers are also optional
accessories that may be installed in some models at any time.
Call your local dealer for information.
TURNING YOUR ICE
MAKER ON
After the plumbing
connections have been
completed, the water
supply valve must be
opened. Place the ice
container under the ice
maker, pushing it as far
back as possible. Lower
the wire signal arm to its
"down" or ON position.
New plumbing
connections may cause
the first production of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd
flavor. These first cubes should be discarded until the cubes
produced are free of discoloration and taste.
TURNING YOUR ICE MAKER OFF
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and
locks in the "up" or OFF position. The ice maker also turns off
automatically when the ice container is full. If your model has an
adjustable freezer shelf, place the shelf in the lower position, so
that the wire signal arm will hit the ice when the container is full.
IMPORTANT
Check the leveling bracket on the ice maker to ensure the ice
maker is level. If the gap between the freezer wall and the ice
maker is the same at top and bottom, then the ice maker is
level.
Your ice maker is shipped with the wire signal arm in the ON
position. To ensure proper function of your ice maker, hook up
water supply immediately or turn ice maker OFF by lifting the
wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the UP position.
ICE MAKER TIPS
• Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor.
Empty the ice container and ensure that the wire signal
arm is in its "down" or ON position. The ice maker will
then produce more ice.
• Occasionally shake the ice container to keep ice
separated.
• Keep the wire signal arm in its "up" or OFF position until
the freezer is connected to the water supply or whenever
the water supply is turned off.
• The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is
operating:
• Motor running
• Ice loosening from tray
• Ice dropping into ice container
• Running water
• Water valve opening or closing
• Wash the ice container in warm water with mild detergent.
Rinse well and dry.
CAUTION CAUTION
CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION
Ice Maker
Do Not place the ice container in your dishwasher.
• Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and during
vacations.
• If the ice maker will be turned off for a long period of time,
turn the water supply valve to the closed position.
