ICE PRODUCTION RATE

• Normal Ice Production: The ice maker
should produce a complete batch of ice every
3 hours. If ice is not being made fast enough,
adjust the freezer control to a lower (colder)
number in steps. Wait 24 hours. If neces-
sary, gradually adjust the freezer control to
the lowest setting. Wait 24 hours between
each adjustment.
• OptimIce Production (Some Models): The
ice maker should produce approximately 16
to 20 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If
your refrigerator has the OptimIce production
feature, press the OptimIce touchpad.
REMEMBER
• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch
of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice
produced.
• 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.
• Do not store anything on top of the ice maker,
or in the ice storage bin.
