Automatic Icemaker

On some models the icemaker is in back,
on others it is on the side.
The icemaker will produce eight cubes
per cycle—approximately 120 cubes in a
24-hour period, depending on freezer
compartment temperature, room
temperature, number of door openings
and other use conditions.
If the refrigerator is operated before
the water connection is made to the
icemaker, keep the feeler arm in the
STOP (up) position.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, move the feeler arm
to the ON (down) position.
The icemaker will fill with water when it
cools to freezing. A newly-installed
refrigerator may take 8 to 12 hours to
begin making ice cubes.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to
allow the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the swing
of the feeler arm.
To Use the Dispenser
Press the rim of the glass gently against
the dispenser pad.
Select CUBED ICE
, CRUSHED ICE
(on some models) or WATER
The spill shelf is not self-draining. To
reduce water spotting, the shelf and its
grille should be cleaned regularly.
If no water is dispensed when the refrigerator is
first installed, there may be air in the water line
system. Press the dispenser pad for at least two
minutes to remove trapped air from the water
line and to fill the water system. To flush out
impurities in the water line, throw away the
first six glassfuls of water.
Icemaker
(On some models)
A light switch (on some models) turns
the night light in the dispenser on or off.
The light also comes on when the
dispenser pad is pressed. The light in the
.
dispenser should be replaced with a 7
watt maximum bulb when it burns out.
CAUTION: Never put fingers or any other
objects into the ice crusher discharge
opening.
