Automatic Ice Maker

Ice maker operation & care
After the refrigerator is installed properly, the ice maker
can produce ice within 24 hours. It can completely fill
an ice bin in about three days.
When using the ice maker for the first time and in
order for the ice maker to work properly, it is necessary
to clear air from water filter tubing. Once ice maker
begins making ice, allow the bucket to fill completely,
then discard the first TWO FULL buckets of ice. It will
take at least two days to completely fill the bucket on
regular ice making mode or 1½ days on fast ice mode.
The ice maker produces approximately 2 to 2.5 lbs (0.9
to 1.1 kg) of ice every 24 hours depending on usage
conditions. The ice bin will hold approximately 7 lbs
(3.2 kg) of ice.
IMPORTANT
Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can
work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you
cannot connect a water supply, lift the ice maker's
wire signal arm to turn it off. Otherwise, the ice
maker's fill valve may make a loud chattering noise
when it attempts to operate without water.
Turning the ice maker on and off
Ice production is controlled by lifting/lowering the ice
maker's wire signal arm. To gain access to the ice
maker, pull the freezer drawer out. Lift the wire signal
arm to turn the ice maker OFF and lower the wire
signal arm to turn it ON.
Ice maker tips
• If your refrigerator is not connected to a water supply
or the water supply is turned off, turn off the ice maker
by lifting wire signal arm.
• The following sounds are normal when the ice maker
is operating:
- Motor running
- Ice dropping into ice bin
- Water valve opening or closing
- Running water
• Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor.
Empty the ice bin as explained below.
Fast Ice Function
Your refrigerator is equipped with a Fast Ice Function,
that will, if activated at your user interface, allow an
increase in ice production. You do not need to deacti-
vate it, if not needed, your refrigerator will operate on
normal conditions.
Cleaning the ice maker
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals,
especially prior to vacation or moving.
1. Turn off the ice maker.
2. Remove the ice bin.
3. Empty and carefully clean the ice bin with mild detergent.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. Rinse with clean
water.
CAUTION
If the water supply to your refrigerator is
softened, be sure the softener is properly
maintained. Chemicals from a water softener
can damage the ice maker.
4. Allow the ice bin to dry completely before replacing in the
freezer.
5. Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on.
Remove and empty the ice bin if:
• An extended power failure (one hour or longer)
causes ice cubes in the ice bin to melt and freeze
together.
Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen the cubes or
clean as explained above.
CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp
instrument to break up the ice. This could
damage the ice bin.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water. Before
replacing the ice bin, make sure it is completely
dry.
