Automatic
Hcemaker
A newly
installed
refrigerator
may take
up to
24 hours
to begin
making
ice.
How
the ncemaker
Works
The icemaker
will produce
8 cubes
per cycle--
approximately
120 cubes
in a 24-hour
period--depending
on freezer compartment
temperature,
room
temperature,
number
of door
openings
and other
use conditions,
If you use your refrigerator
befbre
the water
connection
is made,
make sure the icemaker
fi_eler arm
is in the STOP
(up) position.
When
the water supply
has been connected
to the icemaker,
move the feeler
arm to ON (down)
position.

STOP (up)
position

position
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to
fieezing. Note:
With a newly-installed
refrigeratoz;
allow about 24 hours for the freezer compartment
to
get cold enough to make ice.
Throw
away the first few batches
of ice cubes (16 or
24 cubes)_ This will flush away any impurities
in the
water line. Do the same thing
after vacations
or
extended
periods
when
ice isn't used.
To make
sure the bin Ells with
ice, level the cubes
occasionally.
When
cubes fall into the bin they may pile
up close to the icemaker
and push the feeler arm to the
STOP
(up) position
before the bin gets full Keeping
the
cubes level allows the icemaker
to fill the bin_
The icemaker
ejects cubes in groups
of 8, and it is
normal
for several cubes
to be joined
together.
