Installation Instructions

WATER VALVE INSTALLED

Refer to the 

Water Line Installation Instructions

for

connection to the home water supply. After water
line installation is completed, set the 

icemaker

power switch

to 

I

(on).

Even when the icemaker power switch is in the 

I

(on) position, power to the icemaker will be

interrupted when the freezer door/drawer is open.
This prevents ice ejecting from the icemaker from
missing the ice bucket and dropping into the back
of the freezer. Because power to the icemaker is
interrupted while the door/drawer is open, the
green power light on the icemaker will be off. To
make sure the icemaker is working properly, press
the freezer light switch located on the upper right
side of the freezer compartment. The power light
on the icemaker will come on.

Note: 

After installing the icemaker, 

do not

open

the door/drawer for approximately 4 hours. This
will allow the freezer to reach the correct operating
temperature for making ice, and will prevent water
from spilling out of the icemaker mold.
