Ice Service

If your freezer has an automatic icemaker, it will 
provide a sufficient supply of ice for normal use. 

During the initial startup of your freezer, however, 

no ice will be produced during the first 24 hours of 

operation. Automatic ice makers are also optional 

accessories that may be installed in some models 
at any time. Call your local dealer for information.

Turning Your Ice Maker On

After the plumbing connections have been 

completed, the water supply valve must be 
opened. Place the ice container under the ice 
maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower 

the wire signal arm to its “down” or ON position. 
New plumbing connections may cause the first 

production of ice cubes to be discolored or have an 
odd flavor. These first cubes should be discarded 
until the cubes produced are free of discoloration 
and taste.

Turning Your Ice Maker Off

To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until 
it clicks and locks in the “up” or OFF position. The 
ice maker also turns off automatically when the ice 
container is full. If your model has an adjustable 
freezer shelf, place the shelf in the lower position, 
so that the wire signal arm will hit the ice when the 
container is full.

IMPORTANT

Your ice maker is shipped with the wire signal arm 

in the ON position. To ensure proper function of 

your ice maker, hook up water supply immediately 
or turn ice maker OFF by lifting the wire signal 
arm until it clicks and locks in the UP position.

Check the leveling bracket on the ice maker to 
ensure the ice maker is level. If the gap between 
the freezer wall and the ice maker is the same 
at top and bottom, then ice maker is level. If the 
ice maker is not level, loosen the screw and slide 
the bracket to the correct position to make it level. 
Retighten the screw. You will need a 1/4 inch 
socket wrench for this task.

Ice Maker Tips

•     Ice cubes stored too long may develop an 

odd flavor. Empty the ice container and 
ensure that the wire signal arm is in its 

“down” or ON position. The ice maker will 

then produce more ice.

•     Occasionally shake the ice container to keep 

ice separated.

•     Keep the wire signal arm in its “up” or OFF 

position until the freezer is connected to the 
water supply or whenever the water supply is 
turned off.

•     The following sounds are normal when the 

ice maker is operating:

•     Motor running
•     Ice loosening from tray
•     Ice dropping into ice container
•     Running water
•     Water valve opening or closing

       

CAUTION

•  When moving the freezer, pull straight out. 

Do not shift the freezer from side to side as 
this may tear or gouge the floor covering. 

•  Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. 

Do not touch interior metal surfaces with 
wet or damp hands.
