2. Turn the adjusting screw 

(Figure 2)

 using a flat tip 

screwdriver in a small increment clockwise for a COLDER 
setting (slower ice production) or counterclockwise for 
a WARMER setting (faster ice production).

3. Replace the front grille (two screws).

Ice Maker

When the ice bucket is full, the ice making mechanism will 
shut off. However, the refrigeration system will continue 
to cool and maintain the cube supply. Frost-free icemaker 
units have lower ice production than manual defrost 
units.

IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT

Do not place cans or bottles in the ice compartment 
because they will freeze.

Figure 3

Ice production may be interrupted by raising the bin arm 
into an upright and locked position 

(Figure 3)

. The unit 

will maintain temperature for ice storage. 

IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT

If you are not intending to use the ice maker and 
turn the supply valve off, it is imperative to raise 
the bin arm of the ice maker (Figure 3). Fa
ilure to 
raise the bin arm may result in damage to the water 
valve.

Certain sounds are normal during the unit’s operation. 
You may hear the compressor or fan motor, the water 
valve, or ice dropping into the ice bucket.

WARNING

NEVER use an ice pick, knife or other sharp 
instrument to separate cubes. Shake the ice 
bucket instead.

During periods of limited usage or high ambient 
temperatures, it is common for cubes to fuse together. 
Shake the bucket to break apart cubes. If the ice maker is 
not used regularly, the ice bucket should be emptied 
periodically to ensure fresh cubes.

It is normal for cubes to appear cloudy. This is caused by 
air being trapped in the water due to fast freezing. It has 
nothing to do with the health, taste or chemical make-up 
of the water. It is the same air that is in every glass of 
water you drink.

The ice bucket can be removed for emptying and 
cleaning. To remove the ice bucket, raise the bin arm and 
remove the bucket from the ice compartment. Use the ice 
bucket for ice storage only.

Normal Operating Sounds

All models incorporate rigid foam insulated cabinets to 
provide high thermal efficiency and maximum sound 
reduction for its internal working components. In spite of 
this technology, your model may make sounds that are 
unfamiliar. 

Normal operating sounds may be more noticeable 
because of the unit’s environment. Hard surfaces such as 
cabinets, wood/vinyl/tiled floors and paneled walls have a 
tendency to reflect normal appliance operating noises.

Common refrigeration components, and a brief 
description of the normal operating sounds they make, 
are listed below. 

NOTE:

 Your product may not contain all 

of the components listed.

• Compressor: The compressor makes a hum or pulsing 

sound that may be heard when it operates. 

• Evaporator: Refrigerant flowing through an evaporator 

may sound like boiling liquid. 

• Condenser Fan: Air moving through a condenser may be 

heard.

• Automatic Defrost/Drain Pan: Water may be heard 

dripping or running into the drain pan when the unit is in 
the defrost cycle.
