About the automatic icemaker.
Automatic Icemaker
The icemaker will produce seven cubes
per cycle—approximately 100–130 cubes
in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer
compartment temperature, room
temperature, number of door openings
and other use conditions.
See below for how to access ice and reach
the power switch on dispenser models.
If the refrigerator is operated before the
water connection is made to the icemaker,
set the power switch in the
O (off)
position.
When the refrigerator has been connected to
the water supply, set the power switch to the
l (on)
position.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools
to 15°F (–10°C). A newly installed refrigerator
may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice
cubes.
You will hear a buzzing sound each time
the icemaker fills with water.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to
allow the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep
of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler
arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined
together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes
will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
NOTE:
In homes with lower-than-average
water pressure, you may hear the icemaker
cycle multiple times when making one batch
of ice.
A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
Lift the bin, then pull it
forward until the bin stops.

To access ice and reach the
icemaker power switch:
Accessing Ice and Reaching
the Power Switch on Dispenser
Models
There are two types of ice storage bins
on dispenser models.
One has a shelf above
the bin, the other does not.
Special note about dispenser models
without a shelf above the ice bin:
■
These models have a tilt-out ice bin.
The bin can be tilted out as shown in
the illustrations, and it will hold itself
up while you take ice out or turn the
icemaker power switch on and off.
Be sure to put the bin back in place
before closing the door.
■
To restore your ice level from an empty
bucket stage, the following steps are
recommended:
12 hours after the first batch of ice
has fallen into the bin, dispense
3 to 4 cubes.
After an additional 6 hours, dispense
3 to 4 cubes again.
These steps will restore your ice level
in the shortest amount of time.
To access ice, pull the bin forward.
To reach the power switch, pull the
shelf straight out. Always be sure to
replace the shelf.
