(on icemaker-equipped
models)
If your refrigerator

operated
before water
is

keep the
icemaker feeler arm in the
STOP (up) position
When the refrigerator
has been connected
to
the water
supply and
the water
has been
turned
on, position the
Icemaker

position
after cooling to freezing temperature, and first cubes
normally freeze after several hours. When cubes are
solidly Frozen, they will be ejected from the mold into the
ice storage bin by means of a sweeper arm lcemaking
will continue until the feeler arm senses that there are
enough cubes in the bin and halts the operation
temporarily
Be sure nothing interferes with the swing of
the feeler arm
For maximum
ice storage,
level the stored cubes with
your hand occasionally
Once your icemaker
is in operation,
throw
away
the first few batches of ice cubes. This wilt flush
away any impurities in the water line Do the same thing
after vacations or long periods when ice isn't used
CAUTION:
Under certain rare circumstances, ice
cubes may be discolored, usually appearing with a
green-bluish hue This unusual discoloration
is
apparently due to a combination
of factors such as
certain characteristics of local waters, household
plumbing and the accumulation of copper salts in an
inactive water supply line which feeds the icemaker
Continued consumption of such discolored ice cubes
may be injurious to health_ If your ice cubes are
discolored,
discard them and contact your Sears
Service Center
Move feeler arm to STOP (up) position when:
• the home water supply isto be off for several hours
• the ice storage bin is to be removed for a period
of time
• going away on vacation
(Also turn off the valve in the
water supply line to the refrigerator )
If ice is not used often, old cubes will become
cloudy and taste stale. Empty the ice storage bin
periodically
and wash it in lukewarm water
If this is your first icemaker,
you will hear
occasional sounds that may be unfamiliar They
are normal ice-making sounds and are not cause
for concern
Ice Trays
(on models without automatic icemaker)
To release
ice cubes, turn the tray upside down,
hold it over a container, and h,vist both ends
For only one or two ice
cubes, leave the tray right-
side up, twist both ends
slightly, and remove as
many cubes as you want
Wash ice trays in lukewarm
water
only. Do not put
them in an automatic dishwasher°
