Freezer Icemaker
Auto shutoff
(feeler arm)
NOTE
• The 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.).
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice
production will stop.
• Sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.
• The icemaker begins producing ice
approximately 48 hours after the appliance is
initially installed.
• Discard the first ice cubes produced after initial
install.
• 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.
WARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
• DO NOT place fingers or hands on the
automatic ice making mechanism while the
refrigerator is plugged in.
CAUTION
• Never store beverage cans or other items in
the ice bin for the purpose of rapid cooling.
Doing so may damage the icemaker or the
containers may burst.
Power Switch
Turning the Automatic Icemaker On
or Off
To turn off the automatic icemaker, set the
icemaker switch to OFF (O). To turn on the
automatic icemaker, set the switch to ON (I).
Normal Sounds You May Hear
• Keeping the power turned on to the icemaker
before the water line is connected can damage
the icemaker.
• The icemaker water valve will buzz as the
icemaker fills with water. If the power switch is
in the ON (I) position, it will buzz even if it has
not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the
buzzing, move the power switch to OFF (O).
• You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into
the bin and water running in the pipes as the
icemaker refills.
NOTE
• Do not keep the power turned on to the
icemaker if the water line is not connected.
Doing so can damage the icemaker.
Preparing for Vacation
Set the icemaker power switch to OFF (O) and
shut off the water supply to the appliance.
If the ambient temperature will drop below
freezing, have a qualified technician drain the
water supply system to prevent serious property
damage due to flooding caused by ruptured water
lines or connections.
NOTE
• The ice bin should be emptied any time the
power switch is turned to the OFF (O) position.
