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.

  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.
