ICEMAKER (continued)

CAUTION

• The first ice and water dispensed may include particles

or odor from the water supply line or the water tank.

• Throw away the first few batches of ice. This is also

necessary if the refrigerator has not been used for a

long time.

• Never store beverage cans or other items in the ice

bin for the purpose of rapid cooling. Doing so may

damage the icemaker or the containers may burst.

• If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water filter

and water supply. If the problem continues, contact a

Sears or other qualified service center. Do not use the

ice or water until the problem is corrected.

• Keep children away from the dispenser. Children may

play with or damage the controls.

• The ice passage may become blocked with frost if only

crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates

by removing the ice bin and clearing the passage with

a rubber spatula. Dispensing cubed ice can also help

prevent frost buildup.

• Never use thin crystal glass or crockery to collect ice.

Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass

fragments in the ice.

• Dispense ice into a glass before filling it with water

or other beverages. Splashing may occur if ice is

dispensed into a glass that already contains liquid.

• Never use a glass that is exceptionally narrow or

deep. Ice may jam in the ice passage and refrigerator

performance may be affected.

• Keep the glass at a proper distance from the ice outlet.

A glass held too close to the outlet may prevent ice

from dispensing.

• To avoid personal injury, keep hands out of the ice

door and passage.

• Never remove the dispenser cover.

• If ice or water dispenses unexpectedly, turn off the

water supply and contact Sears Home Services at

1-844-469-6667.

WHEN TO SET ICEMAKER TO OFF

• When the water supply will be shut off for several

hours.

• When the ice bin is removed for more than one or two

minutes.

• When the refrigerator will not be used for several days.

NOTE:

The ice bin should be emptied any time the

icemaker is turned off.

PREPARING FOR VACATION

Press the refrigerator control panel Ice Maker button to

read OFF. Shut off the water supply to the refrigerator.
To turn icemaker ON or OFF: Press the control panel Ice

Maker button. ON or OFF illuminates in the control panel

display.

NOTE:

The ice bin should be emptied any time the

icemaker is turned off.

If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have

a qualified technician drain the water supply system to

prevent serious property damage due to flooding caused

by ruptured water lines or connections.
