• 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
• Wash the ice container in warm water with mild
detergent. Rinse well and dry.
If your freezer has an automatic ice maker, 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
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 the ice maker is level.
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.
CAUTION
do Not place the ice container in your dishwasher.
• Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and
during vacations.
• If the ice maker will be turned off for a long period
of time, turn the water supply valve to the closed
position.
