ICE MAKER AND STORAGE BIN
■
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
■
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of
the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals
(such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to
poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided,
make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well
maintained.
■
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the storage
bin. This can cause damage to the ice container and the
dispenser mechanism.
■
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or
storage bin.
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
■
The On/Off switch, located on the left wall of the freezer
door, can only be accessed when the ice storage bin has been
removed. See the following section for bin removal instructions.
ON
OFF
■
To turn on the ice maker, flip the switch to the On (up) position.
■
To manually turn off the ice maker, flip the switch to the Off
(down) position.
NOTE:
Your ice maker has an automatic shut off to keep the
storage bin from overfilling during normal operation. As ice is
made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin, and the ice cubes
will raise the shut off arm to the Off (up) position. When the
storage bin is at full capacity, the ice maker will automatically
stop ice production, but the ice maker On/Off switch will remain
in the On (up) position.
Removing and Replacing the Ice Storage Bin
1.
Press down the release lever and tilt the bucket outward. Use
both hands to hold the base of the storage bin, then lift it up
and out.

NOTE:
It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the
Off (right) position when removing the storage bin. The sensor
cover (“
flipper door
”) on the left wall of the freezer stops the ice
maker from producing ice if the door is open or the storage bin is
removed.
