Remember that water quality determines your ice quality. If the water source
uses a water softener, ensure that the softener is maintained and working
properly. Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener can damage the ice
maker.
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the "up"
or OFF position. The ice maker turns off automatically when the ice container
is full. If your model has an adjustable freezer shelf, place the shelf so the wire
signal arm will hit the ice when the ice container is full.
Ice Maker Tips
•
Ice stored too long may develop an odd flavor. Empty the container and
be sure the wire signal arm is in its "down" or ON position. The ice maker
will then produce more ice.
•
Occasionally shake the container to keep ice separated.
•
Keep the wire signal arm in its "up" or OFF position until the refrigerator is connected to the water
supply or whenever the water supply is turned off.
•
The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating.
•
Motor running
•
Ice loosening from tray
•
Ice dropping into ice container
•
Running water
•
Water valve opening or closing
CAUTION
DO NOT place the ice container in your dishwasher.
•
Wash ice container in warm water with mild detergent. Rinse well and dry.
•
Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer or for short vacations.
•
If the ice maker will be turned off for a long period of time, turn the water supply valve to the closed
position.
