Twin Drawer Shelf
To remove:
1 Remove the drawers.
2 Reach in, push the front of glass cover up,
and at the same time, pull it forward as far
as it will come.
Tilt it and take it out. Avoid cleaning the cold glass
cover with hot water because the extreme
temperature difference may cause it to break.

Remove the drawer frame. (Always remove
the glass cover before you take out the
drawer frame.)
Lift the frame off the supports at each side and
back, pull it forward, tilt it and take it out.

Automatic Icemaker

(on some models)
The icemaker will produce approximately
100–130 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on
the 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, move the
feeler arm to the STOP (up) position.
When the refrigerator has been connected to
the water supply, move the feeler arm to the ON
(down) position.
You will hear a buzzing sound each time the
icemaker fills with water.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to
15°F. A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to
24 hours to begin making ice cubes.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow
the water line to clear.
Fruit and Vegetable Drawers
Excess water that may
accumulate in the bottom of
the drawers should be emptied
and the drawers wiped dry.
(on some models)
Slide the control all the way to the LOW
setting to provide lower humidity levels
recommended for most fruits.
To replace:
1 Lower the frame until it rests on the
supports at each side and back.
2
Replace the glass cover, pushing its rear
edge firmly into the rear frame channel and
gently lowering the front into place.
3 Replace the drawers.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the
feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm,
the icemaker will stop producing ice.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined
together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple
times when making one batch of ice.
Icemaker Accessory Kit
If your refrigerator did not already come equipped
with an automatic icemaker, an icemaker
accessory kit is available at extra cost.
Check the back of the refrigerator for
the specific icemaker kit needed for
your model.
