AUTOMATIC
ICEMAKER (continued)
ACAUTION
*
The first ice and water dispensed
may include particles
or odor from the water supply line or the water tank.
* Throw away the first few batches of ice (about 24
cubes). This is also necessary if the refrigerator
has not
been used for a long time.
*
Never store beverage
cans or other items in the ice
bin for the purpose of rapid cooling.
Doing so may
damage
the icemaker
or the containers
may burst.
If discolored
ice is dispensed, check the water filter
and water supply. If the problem
continues, contact
a
Sears or other qualified
service center. Do not use the
ice or water until the problem
is corrected.
*
Keep children
away from the dispenser. Children
may
play with or damage
the controls.
The ice passage may become blocked
with frost if only
crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates
by removing the ice bin and clearing
the passage with
a rubber spatula.
Dispensing cubed ice can also help
prevent frost buildup.
*
Never
use thin crystai
glass or crockery
to collect
ice.
Such containers
may chip
or break
resulting
in glass
fragments
in the ice.
*
Dispense ice into a glass before filling
it with water
or other beverages.
Splashing
may occur if ice is
dispensed
into a glass that already
contains liquid.
*
Never
use a glass that
is exceptionally
narrow
or
deep.
Ice may jam
in the ice passage
and
refrigerator
performance
may
be affected.
*
Keep
the glass at a proper distance
from the ice
outlet.
A glass held too close to the outlet may prevent ice
from dispensing.
* To avoid personal injury, keep hands out of the ice
door and passage.
*
Never
remove
the dispenser
coven
*
if ice or water dispenses unexpectedly,
turn off: the
water supply and contact Sears Home Service at
1-800-4-MY
HOME ®.

refills.
