HOW TO USE
Automatic Icemaker
Ice is made in the automatic icemaker and sent
to the dispenser. The icemaker will produce 7
cubes per cycle - approximately 70-120 cubes in
a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compart-
ment temperature, room temperature, number
of door openings and other operating conditions.
It takes about 12 to 24 hours for a newly
installed refrigerator to begin making ice.
Wait 72 hours for full ice production to
occur.
Ice making stops when the ice storage
bin is full. When full, the ice bin holds
approximately 6 to 8 (12-16 oz) glasses of
ice.
To turn off the automatic icemaker, set
the icemaker ON/OFF button on the dis-
play to Ice Off. To turn on the automatic
icemaker, set the ON/OFF button on the
display to Ice On.
The water pressure must be between 20
and 120 psi on models without a water
filter and between 40 and 120 psi on
models with a water filter to produce the
normal amount and size of ice cubes.
When You Should Turn the Icemaker Off
Set the Icemaker ON/OFF Button to "Ice Off":
When the water supply will be shut
off for several hours.
When the ice bin is removed for
more than one or two minutes.
When the refrigerator will not be
used for several days.
NOTE: The ice bin should be emptied when the
icemaker ON/OFF button is set to the Ice Off
mode.
Normal Sounds You May Hear
NOTE: Keeping the icemaker ON/OFF button
set to the Ice On mode before the water line is
connected can damage the icemaker.
You will hear the sound of cubes drop-
ping into the bin and water running in the
pipes as the icemaker refills.
WARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
DO NOT place fingers or hands on the auto-
matic ice making mechanism while the refrig-
erator is plugged in.

Preparing for Vacation
Set the icemaker ON/OFF button to the Ice Off
mode and shut off the water supply to the re-
frigerator.
NOTE: The ice bin should be emptied any time
the icemaker ON/OFF button is set to the Ice
Off mode.
If the ambient temperature will drop below
freezing, have a qualified technician drain the
water supply system to prevent serious prop-
erty damage due to flooding caused by ruptured
water lines or connections.
Power Failure
During a power failure, ice may drop into the
freezer compartment. Remove the ice storage
bin and discard all the ice. Dry the storage bin
and reinstall it. Once power is restored, crushed
ice will be selected by default.
