Removing and Replacing the Ice Storage Bin:

1. Press down the release lever and tilt the bucket outward. Use 

both hands to hold the base of the storage bin, then lift it up 
and out. 

NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the 
OFF (right) position when removing the storage bin. The 
sensor cover (“flipper door”), located on the right wall of the 
freezer door, stops the ice maker from producing ice if the 
door is open or the storage bin is removed.      

2. Replace the bin by sliding it onto the door, then tilting it back 

into an upright position. The release lever will click when the 
bin is securely in place.

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off:

To turn ON the ice maker, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.

To manually turn off the ice maker, lift the wire shutoff arm to 
the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click. Ice can still 
be dispensed, but no more can be made.

NOTE: The ice maker has an automatic shutoff to keep the 
storage bin from overfilling during normal operation. As ice is 
made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin, and the ice cubes 
will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not 
force the wire shutoff arm up or down.

Removing and Replacing the Ice Storage Bin:

1. Pull the covering panel up from the bottom.
2. Lift the wire shutoff arm so it clicks into the OFF (up) position.
3. Lift up the front of the storage bin and pull it out. 

4. Replace the bin by pushing it in all the way or the dispenser 

will not work. 

5. To restart ice production, push the wire shutoff arm down to 

the ON position. Make sure the door is closed tightly.

Water Filtration System

(on some models)

Water Filter Status Indicator

The water filter status indicator, located on the control panel’s 
display screen, will help you know when to change your water 
filter. 

When the water filter is in good condition, the water filter 
status indicator icon does not appear on the control panel.

When the control panel’s water filter status indicator icon 
appears in orange, this tells you that it is almost time to 
change the water filter. It is recommended that you order a 
replacement filter when the orange icon appears.

Replace the water filter when the water filter status indicator 
icon changes from orange to red. 

If water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases 
noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should be replaced 
at least every 6 months, depending on your water quality and 
usage.

After changing the water filter, reset the status indicator by 
pressing and holding the RESET ALARM button for 
3 seconds. When the system is reset, the water filter status 
indicator icon will disappear from the display screen.
