When removing or replacing the ice bin, do not rotate the
auger in the ice bin. If the auger is accidentally turned, you
must realign the auger by turning it in 90° turns until the ice
bin fits into place with the drive mechanism.
Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:
1.
An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice
cubes in the ice storage bin to melt and freeze together
and jam the dispenser mechanism.
2.
The ice dispenser is not used frequently. Ice cubes will
freeze together in the bin and jam the dispenser
mechanism. Remove the ice storage bin and shake to
loosen the cubes.
