produces 2 batches of round ice (6 pieces total)
in the same period.
• For more ice, select the 6 ICE mode. For clearer
ice, select the 3 ICE mode.
• The time needed to make ice may vary according
to operating conditions.
• The ice bin stores 20 - 30 pieces of round ice.

Storage Bin
The ice dispensing chute may become blocked with
frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost
