1. Water fills the empty cube mold when the
freezer has cooled to freezing temperature.
Cold air is forced directly over the mold.
HOW THE ICEMAKER WORKS
3. The feeler arm senses when the bin is full
and signals the icemaker to stop ejecting
more cubes. However, the mold has been
refilled and cubes frozen so the new supply
is ready when needed. As soon as ice is
removed from the bin, the feeler arm signals
that more is needed. Icemaker resumes
operation by ejecting ready-and-waiting
frozen cubes.

2. When frozen, the cubes are moved up and
out of the mold. The sweeper arm ejects
them into the ice storage bin below.
