If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, it will provide a
sufficient supply of ice for normal use. During the initial startup
of your refrigerator, no ice will be produced during the first 24
hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the
ice maker to cycle two or three times before making a ful! tray
of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately one to two days
to fill the ice container.
New plumbing connections may cause the first production of
ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor. Discard ice
made during the first 24 hours.
ICE MAKER TIPS
Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor.
Empty the ice container and ensure that the wire signal
arm is in its 'down" or ON position. The ice maker will then
produce more ice.
Occasionally shake the ice container to keep ice
separated.
Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and during
vacations.
if the ice maker will be turned off for a long period of time,
turn the water supply valve to a closed position.
TURNING YOUR ICE MAKER ON
After the plumbing connections have been completed, the
water supply valve must be opened. Place the ice container
under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower
the wire signal arm to its 'down" or ON _osition.
TURNING YOUR ICE MAKER OFF
To stop the ice maker, lift the
wire signal arm until it clicks and
locks in the "up" or OFF position.
The ice maker also turns off
automatically when the ice
container is full. If your model
has an adjustable freezer shelf,
place the shelf in the lower
position, so that the wire signal
arm wil! hit the ice when the
container is ful!.
Wash the ice container in warm water with mild detergent.
Rinse well and dry.
Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and during
vacations.
If the ice maker will be turned off for a long period of time,
turn the water supply valve to the closed position.
