Storage Features - Kenmore 970F44853 Series Use & Care Manual

Ice Service
• 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 appliance
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
NOTE
Shelf must be installed at its highest
position for the ice maker wire signal arm
to function properly.
IMPORTANT
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.
Check the leveling bracket on the ice
maker to ensure the ice maker is level. If
the gap between the unit wall and the
ice maker is the same at top and bottom,
then ice maker is level. If the ice maker is
not level, loosen the screw and slide the
bracket to the correct position to make it
level. Retighten the screw. You will need a
¼ inch socket wrench for this task.

CAUTION
• DO NOT place the ice container
in dishwasher.
• Wash the ice container in warm water
with mild detergent. Rinse well and dry.
• Stop the ice maker when cleaning the
freezer and during vacations.
