Ice Maker
(on some models)
IMPORTANT: For models with a water filter, after connecting the
refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, fill and
discard three full containers of ice to prepare the water filter for
use.
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the
OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. 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.
Ice Storage Bin
1. Wash the ice storage bin with mild soap and warm water.
2. Slide the ice storage bin under the ice maker, and push it
toward the back as far as it will go.
3. Lower the arm on the ice maker to the “on” position.
NOTE: It usually takes approximately 24 hours for the ice
maker to begin producing ice. You may notice the ice has an
“off-taste.” If so, discard the first three batches of ice
produced. After that the “off-taste” should be gone.
Ice Production Rate
■
The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period. Allow 3 days to completely fill the
ice container.
■
To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See “Using the Control(s).” Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
Remember
■
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals
(such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to
poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided,
make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well
maintained.
■
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This
can cause damage to the ice storage bin and the dispenser
mechanism.
■
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or ice
storage bin.
REFRIGERATOR FEATURES
NOTE: Your model may have some or all of these features.
Refrigerator Shelves
The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to match your
individual storage needs.
Glass Shelves
To remove a shelf:
1. Remove items from the shelf.
2. Slide the shelf straight out to the stop.
3. Depending on your model, lift the back or front of the shelf
past the stop. Pull the shelf out the rest of the way.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
