Once Your Icemaker and
Dispenser Are in Operation
Throw away the first few batches
of ice cubes (16 or 24 cubes). This
will flush away any impurities in
the water line. Do the same thing
after vacations or extended periods
when ice isn’t used.
Discard the first six
of
water in the kitchen sink. This will
eliminate the slight “plastic” taste
temporarily imparted to the water
by the water reservoir.
Keep ice level to keep icemaker
productive. Cubes ejected into
an empty storage bin will
up
close to the icemaker and push the
feeler arm up to the OFF position
prematurely when the bin is only
partially full. Open the ice access
door, reach in, level the cubes by
hand and
will resume.
Keeping cubes distributed evenly
will allow the icemaker to produce
enough ice to fill the bin to its
maximum capacity.
Caution:
Under certain rare circumstances,
ice cubes may be discolored,
usually appearing with a
bluish hue. The cause of this
unusual discoloration is apparently
due to a combination of factors
such as certain characteristics of
local waters, household plumbing
and the accumulation of copper
salts in an inactive water supply
line which feeds the icemaker.
Continued consumption of such
discolored ice cubes may be
injurious to health. If such
discoloration is observed, discard
the ice cubes and contact your
Factory Service Center
or an authorized Customer
Servicer.
To Dispense Ice and Water
●
For ice, set selector switch to
CUBED or CRUSHED. For water,
simply position glass beneath words
“CHILLED
I
—
●
Grip glass or other container
gently near the rim and press rim
firmly against ice or water
dispenser cradle.
Caution: Never put fingers
or other objects into the ice
crusher discharge opening.
When Dispensing Ice...
Some crushed ice may be dispensed
even though you selected CUBED.
This happens occasionally when a
few cubes accidentally get channeled
to the crusher.
Sometimes a mound of snow will
form on the door in the ice chute.
This condition is normal, and
usually
occurs when you have dispensed
crushed ice repeatedly. The snow will
eventually evaporate.
When Dispensing Water...
The water system provides
approximately six successive
6-ounce
which
several hours must be allowed for
replenished water reservoir supply
to cool. You probably will not drain
all the chilled water from the
reservoir on a single occasion.
The first glass of water dispensed
may be warmer than the
ones. This is normal.
Dispensed water is chilled, not
iced. For colder water, simply add
crushed ice or cubes before
dispensing water.
