Water flows from household
supply through dual solenoid
valve (I) to water reservoir (2]
and to automatic icemaker (3]
,as needed
Water is frozen in cube mold (4]
and ejected into storage bin [5)
•where a motor-powered
auger
moves cubes forward to dispens-
ing unit. When you touch the
CUBES pad on front of freezer
compartment
door, ice cubes wilt
dispense through chute in door
when cradle is pressed
When you touch the CRUSHED
pad, baffle in housing channels

and is dispensed when cradle

Important
Facts about
Your Custom Dispenser
o Your icemaker will produce an
average of five cubes an hour--
approximately
t20 cubes in a 24-
hour period--depending
on freezer
compartment
temperature,
room
temperature,
number of door open-
ings and other use conditions
The ice storage bin holds about
250 cubes ......
o Intermittent dispensing of ice is
normal. If ice flow interruption is
more than brief, ice clump[s) may be
the cause and should be removed
following
instructions
below and
on page !2.
;
a Overfilling
glass with ice and
use of narrow or extra-tall glasses
should be avoided. This can jam the
chute or cause the door in the chute
to freeze shut. Periodicalty open the
freezer compartment
door and took
down into the chute. If ice is block-
ing the chute, poke it through with
a wooden spoon,
o To help keep bits of ice from being
sprayed beyond the glass, place
glass close to ice chute--but
not so
close that it blocks outcoming
ice.
= ice should not be dispensed into
thin glasses, fine china or delicate
crystal--they can crack or chip from
the combined pressure of your hand
pressing them against the cradle
and ice dropping into the container.
= Ice should be dispensed before
filling glass with soda or other
beverage mixe& This will prevent
splashing which is annoying and
which, if the splash reaches the ice
and water selector switch, could
cause it to stick or bind.
e Beverages and foods should not
be quick-chilled
in the ice storage
bin. Cans, bottles or food packages
in the storage bin can cause the
icemaker to malfunction.
= Ice other than that produced by
your icemaker should not be added
to the ice storage bin--it may not
crush and/or dispense welt.
