Special note about ClimateKeeper2 T" d ispenser
models:
Dispenser models have a tilt-out ice bin.
The bin can be tilted out as shown in
the illustrations, and it will hold itself up while
you take ice out or turn the icemaker power
switch on and off. Be sure to put the bin back
in place before closing the door.
_To restore your ice levelfrom an empty bucket
stage,the following stepsare recommended:
O
12 hours after the first batch of ice has fallen
into the bin, dispense 3 to 4 cubes.
O
After an additional 6 hours, dispense 3 to/4
cubes again.
These steps will restore your ice level
in the shortest amount of time.
On dispenser models with a tilt-out ice bin, to
access ice or reach the power switch:
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow
the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep
of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm,
the icemaker will stop producing ice. It is normal
for several cubes to be joined together. If ice is
not usedfrequently, old ice cubes will become
cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
If ice cubes get stuck in the icemaker,the green
power light will blink. To correct this, set the
power switch to O and remove the cubes.
Setthe power switch to I to restart the icemaker.
After the icemaker has been turned on again,
there will be a delay of about/45 minutes before
