Key  Eject Lock 

(Some Models)

The key  eject lock is located below the handle.  The key
is packaged in the plastic bag with the use and care
guide.

The purpose of the lock is to keep your frozen food supply
secure and to help reduce the hazard of child entrapment.

To lock or unlock the freezer you must hold the key in the
lock while turning.  The lock is spring loaded so the key
cannot be left in the lock.

NOTE:

 

 

Be sure to keep your key in a safe location out of

the reach of children.

Refrigerated Shelves: Manual Defrost

Your freezer is equipped with refrigerated shelves.
Packages in direct contact with the shelves will have the
best refrigeration.  Fresh, unfrozen food packages should
be stored directly on the shelves and not on top of already
frozen food packages.

When placing the food packages in your freezer it should
be remembered:
a)  The shelves of the foodliner have the best freezing
capability.  The doorshelf temperatures, and the bottom
temperatures are somewhat higher.  Therefore packages
sensitive to temperature (meat, poultry, etc.)  should not
be placed on the doorshelf or the freezer bottom.

b)  Give the cold air a chance to completely surround the
packages.

Removable Shelf 

(some models)

If there is a removable shelf in your freezer, it can be
removed in order to facilitate storage space for large food
items.  To remove the shelf, lift up and pull forward.

Storage Baskets

To remove, lift up and take basket out.

Ice Maker Operation (some models)

To turn the ice maker on/off:

NOTE: Do not force the wire shut-off arm up or down.
• To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shut-off arm.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shut-off. As ice is

  made, the ice cubes fill the ice storgae bin and the ice
  cubes will raise the wire shut-off arm to the OFF (arm up)
  position.
• To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shut-off arm
  to the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to

make sure the ice maker will not continue to operate.

To increase ice production rate:

The ice maker should produce approximately 7 to 9 batches
of ice in a 24 hour period. If ice is not being made fast enough,
turn the temperature control toward a higher (colder) number
in half number steps.
For example, if the control is set to 3, move it to between 3
and 4. Wait 24 hours and if necessary gradually turn the
temperature control to the highest setting, waiting 24 hours
between each increase.

REMEMBER:

• 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 water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener c h e m i -
cals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and
lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply can not be
avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly
and well maintained.
• Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin.

Ice Maker Water Supply Connection 

(Some Models)

Read all directions carefully before you begin installation.

IMPORTANT:

• If you turn the freezer on before the  water line is connected,
be sure to turn the ice maker OFF.
• All installations must meet local plumbing code require-
ments.
• Use plastic tubing and check for leaks. Install plastic tubing
in areas where temperatures will remain above freezing.

Note

:Your freezer dealer can obtain a kit with a 1/4"

(6.35mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union and plastic
tubing. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve
complies with your local plumbing codes. Do not use a
piercing-type or 3/16" (4.76mm) saddle valve that reduces
water flow and clogs more easily.

Tools Required: 

Standard screwdriver, 7/16" and 1/2"

open end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches, 1/4"
nutdriver and drill bit, hand drill or electric drill (properly
grounded).

Cold water supply

Connect the ice maker to a cold water line with water
pressure between 30 and 120 psi. If you have questions
regarding your water pressure, call your utility company.

Connecting to water line:
1

.Unplug freezer or disconnect power.

2

.Turn OFF main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long

enough to clear water lines.

3

.Locate a 1/2" to 1 1/4" (12.7 mm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold

water pipe near the freezer. 

  NOTE:

 A horizontal pipe will

work but drill on the top side of the pipe, not the bottom. This
will help keep water away from the drill and normal sediment
from collecting in the valve.
