ABOUT THE AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
A newly-installed refrigerator may take
12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
The icemaker will produce 12 cubes per cycle—
approximately 90–130 cubes in a 24- hour period,
depending on freezer compartment temperature,
room temperature, number of door openings and
other operating conditions.
If the refrigerator is used before the water
connection is made to the icemaker, set the power
switch to
O (off)
.
When the refrigerator has been connected to the
water supply, set the power switch to
I (on)
.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to
freezing. A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12
to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow the
water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the
Automatic Shut off Arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the Automatic Shut
off Arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice.
It is normal for several cubes to be stuck together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale, and shrink.
WHEN YOU SHOULD SET THE
ICEMAKER POWER SWITCH TO
O (OFF)
• When the water supply will be shut off for
several hours.
• When the ice bucket is removed for more than a
minute or two.
• When the refrigerator will not be used for
several days.
NORMAL SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR
• The icemaker water valve will buzz as the
icemaker fills with water. If the power switch is
in the
I (on)
position, it will buzz even if it has
not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the
buzzing, move the power switch to
O (off)
.
NOTE:
Keeping the power switch in the
I (on)
position before the water line is connected can
damage the icemaker.
• You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into
the bin and water running in the pipes as the
icemaker refills.
PREPARING FOR VACATION
Set the icemaker power switch to
O (off)
and
shut off the water supply to the refrigerator.
If the ambient temperature will drop below
freezing, have a qualified servicer drain the water
supply system to prevent serious property
damage due to flooding from ruptured water lines
or connections.
