NOW TO PRIME THE WATER SUPPLY
SYSTEM
Your refrigerator's water supply system includes several
tubing lines, a water filter, a water valve and a water tank.
To ensure that your water dispenser works properly, this
system must be completely filled with water when your
refrigerator is first connected to the household water
supply line and whenever you replace the water filter.
TO PRIME THE WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM:
• Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a
drinking glass against the water dispenser paddle.
• Keep the glass in this position until water comes out
of the dispenser. There will be noticeable spurts and
sputters as the system pushes air out through the
system and dispenser nozzle. This is normal. This
may take about 11/2minutes.
Continue dispensing water for about 3 minutes to
flush the system of any air and impurities. Empty
glass as needed.
The ice maker and container are located in the top of the
freezer compartment. After the refrigerator is installed
properly and has cooled for several hours, the ice
maker can begin making ice within 24 hours. Air in new
plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle two
or three times before making a full tray of ice. With no
usage, it will take approximately two days to fill the ice
container.
Because of new plumbing connections, the first
production of ice cubes may be discolored or have an
odd flavor. Discard ice made during the first 24 hours.
TURNING YOUR REAR MOUNTED iCE
MAKER ON/OFF
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's ON/OFF
power switch. To gain
access to the ice maker,
pull the ice cream shelf
out. Press the switch to
the "O" position to turn
it Off and press it to the
'1" position to turn it On.
The ice maker also has
a built-in wire signal
arm, which automatically
stops ice production
when the ice bin is full.
DO NOT use this signal
arm to manually stop the
ice maker.
