HOW TO USE YOUR ICEMAKER
1. To start the Icemaker, lower the feeler arm to the
ON (down) position. Make sure the ice storage
bin is below the icemaker and pushed back as
far as possible.
Arm down —
icemaker will operate
Arm up —
stops operation
2. When the Icemaker is first connected or after
any extended period of non-use, you should
discard the first few batches of cubes. Use ice
regularly to maintain the best quality.
3. The feeler arm must be free to operate upward
and outward over the top of the ice storage bin
during each ice-delivery cycle. Make sure
packages in the freezer compartment do not
block its movement.
4. Raise the feeler arm to the STOP (up) position
when:
a. Ice storage bin is to be removed for extended
period of time.
b. Refrigerator is not to be used for an extended
time, such as vacations. Also, turn off the
water supply to the Icemaker in this instance.
c. Water supply is to be shut off for several
hours.
5. During operation, you may hear certain sounds,
such as the hum of the motor, movement of the
cube ejector, humming or clicking of the water
valve, and rattling of ice as it falls into the bin.
These sounds are normal.
6. The Icemaker ejects cubes in groups and it is
normal for several cubes to be joined together.
7. Ice cubes that have been in the ice storage bin for
a considerable length of time may pick up off-flavor
tastes, stick together, and gradually become
smaller. We suggest that these cubes be thrown
away.
8. The ice storage bin should be cleaned occasion-
ally in warm water. Rinse and wipe dry. Be sure to
put the icemaker feeler arm in the STOP (up)
position when cleaning the bin.
9. Keep the cubes distributed levelly and the bin
can reach its maximum cube capacity. If the
cubes should build up in one area of the ice
storage bin after being ejected from the mold,
just level them out with your hand.
