Automatic Icemaker - LG LRFXC2406 Series Owner's Manual

Automatic Icemaker

WARNING
• DO NOT place fingers in the automatic icemaker
when the refrigerator is plugged in.
• Avoid contact with any moving parts of the
ejector mechanism or with the heater that
releases the ice cubes.
Before Using the In-Door Icemaker
NOTE
• Ice is made in the automatic in-door icemaker
and sent to the dispenser. The icemaker
produces 70 - 182 cubes in a 24-hour period,
depending on freezer compartment
temperature, room temperature, number of
door openings and other operating conditions.
• It takes about 12 to 24 hours for a newly
installed refrigerator to begin making ice.
• Ice-making stops when the in-door ice bin is full.
When full, the in-door ice bin holds
approximately 6 to 8 (12-16 oz.) glasses of ice.
• Foreign substances or frost on the ice-detecting
sensor can interrupt ice production. Make sure
the sensor area is clean at all times for proper
operation.
• To increase ice production, use the Ice Plus
function. The function increases both ice making
and freezing capabilities.

Before Using the Freezer Icemaker
This feature is only available on some models.
The feature may vary depending on model
purchased.
NOTE
• Throw away the first bin full of ice after
installation. This is also necessary if the
refrigerator has not been used for a long time.
• The icemaker begins producing ice
approximately 48 hours after the appliance is
initially installed.
• The sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is
normal.
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice
production will stop.
• The amount and shape of ice may vary according
to the environment (ambient temperature
around the appliance, frequency of the door
being opened, amount of food stored in the
appliance, water pressure, etc.).
• In the event of a power outage, throw away the
ice stored in the ice bin.

NOTE
• This automatic freezer icemaker produces 12
cubes at a time, 50-110 pieces within a 24 hour
period if conditions are favorable. This amount
may vary according to the environment (ambient
temperature around the appliance, frequency of
the door being opened, amount of food stored
in the appliance, etc.).
• Ice cubes which are stored in the ice bin for a
long time may clump together and be difficult to
separate. If this happens, empty the ice bin
completely and clean it before reinstalling it.
