Turning the Ice Maker
On/Off
The On/Off
switch is located
on the top right side of the freezer
compartment.
To turn on the ice maker, slide the control
to the ON
(left)
position.
To manually
turn off the ice maker, slide the control
to the OFF
(right)
position.
NOTE: Your ice maker
has an automatic
shutoff.
The ice maker
sensor passes a beam from one freezer
wall to the other,
automatically
stopping
ice production
when the storage
bin is full.
The control
will remain
in the ON
(left) position.
REMEMBER:
Allow
24 hours to produce
the first batch of ice. Allow
3 days
to completely
fill ice container.
Discard
the first three batches
of ice produced
to avoid
impurities
that may be flushed
out of the system.
The quality
of your ice will be only as good as the quality
of the
water
supplied
to your ice maker.
Avoid
connecting
the ice maker
to a softened
water
supply.
Water
softener
chemicals
(such as salt) can damage
parts of
the ice maker and lead to poor quality
ice. If a softened
water
supply
cannot
be avoided,
make sure the water
softener
is
operating
properly
and is well maintained.
It is normal
for the ice cubes to be attached
at the corners.
They will break
apart
easily.
Do not store anything
on top of the ice maker
or in the storage
bin.

release
button
to lift the storage
bin up and out.
NOTE:
It is not necessary
to turn the ice maker
control
to the
OFF (right)
position
when removing
the storage
bin. The sensor
cover ("flipper
door")
on the left wall of the freezer
stops the
ice maker
from producing
ice if the door is open or the storage
bin is removed.
Replace
the storage
bin on the door and push down to make
sure it is securely
in place.
