Automatic Icemaker

(on some models)
The icemaker will produce approximately
3 to 3 1 ⁄ lbs. of ice in a 24-hour period,
2
depending on the freezer compartment
temperature, room temperature, number
of door openings and other use conditions.
There are two types of icemakers: power
switch models and feeler arm models.
If the refrigerator is operated before the
water connection is made to the icemaker,
set the power switch to O (off) or move the
feeler arm to the STOP (up) position.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, set the power switch to
the I (on) position or move the feeler arm to
the ON (down) position. On power switch
models, the green light will come on.
The icemaker will fill with water when it
cools to 15°F. A newly-installed refrigerator
may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making
ice cubes.
Once the icemaker starts to make ice,
it may take up to 48 hours to fill the bin,
depending on the temperature settings
and number of door openings.
You will hear a buzzing sound each time
the icemaker fills with water.
Icemaker Accessory Kit
If your refrigerator did not already come
equipped with an automatic icemaker,
an icemaker accessory kit is available at
extra cost.
This refrigerator will accept accessory icemaker IM4A or IM6. Use instruction sheet L
supplied in the kit for assembly inside freezer compartment.
To facilitate installation of an icemaker kit, the following parts are included with your
refrigerator:
Part Part Number
Ice Fill Cup WR29X10074
Ice Fill Tube WR17X12339
Ice Fill Tube Seal WR17X12337
NOTE: It is important that you DO NOT discard these parts, as they will be needed if
you plan to install accessory icemaker kit IM4A or IM6.

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 used frequently, old ice cubes
will become cloudy, taste stale, shrink or
fuse together.
On power switch models, the green power
light will blink if ice cubes get stuck in the
icemaker. To correct this, set the power
switch to O (off) and remove the cubes.
Set the power switch to I (on) to restart the
icemaker. After the icemaker has been
turned on again, there will be a delay of
about 45 minutes before the icemaker
resumes operation.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple
times when making one batch of ice.
Check the back of the refrigerator for the
specific icemaker kit needed for your model.
