The Dispenser Lock
The dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to avoid
unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the
refrigerator, to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply
deactivates the controls and dispenser paddles. To turn off the
ice maker, see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”

Ice Maker and Ice Storage Bin
(on some models)
IMPORTANT: To avoid low ice production and poor quality ice,
flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See
“Water Dispenser.”
■
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced. Allow 2 to 3 days for the
storage bin to fill completely following installation.
■
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.
■
If the ice in the storage bin clumps together, break up ice
using a plastic utensil and discard. Do not use anything
sharp to break up the ice. This can cause damage to the ice
bin and the dispenser mechanism.
■
Do not store anything in the ice storage bin.
Ice Production Rate
■
The ice maker should produce approximately 3 lbs (1.4 kg)
of ice per day under normal operation.
■
To increase ice production, select the increased ice
production feature from the Settings or Options menu on the
control panel. See “Using the Control(s).”
Ice Maker
The ice maker is located on the left-hand side of the refrigerator
compartment ceiling. Ice cubes are ejected into the ice storage
bin, located on the left-hand refrigerator door.
Turn the Ice Maker On/Off
1. Push up on the latch on the left-hand side of the ice
compartment to open the door.
2. Turn on the ice maker by moving the switch to the (left) ON
position.
NOTES:
■
To manually turn off the ice maker, move the control to
the OFF (right) position.
■
Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The sensor will
automatically stop ice production if the storage bin is
full, if the door is open or the storage bin is removed.
The control will remain in the ON (left) position.
3. Close the ice compartment door.
