Mounting the ice maker
Refer to the side diagram for the following
step.
1. Look at the ice maker’s ll cup and note that the rear of
the cup has a “U” shaped groove (either of the sides may
also be grooved). Use your ngers, (or a pair of pliers, if it is
easier), and remove only the rear “knock-out” from the cup.
Bend the area back and forth inside the groove until it breaks
free. The ll tube will t through this cutout when you install
the ice maker.
Refer to the side diagram for the following
steps.
1. Remove and discard the blank connector from the wiring
harness. To remove it, lift the locking arm on the side of the
blank connector so it is over the tab of the wiring harness
connector, and pull the blank connector off.
2. Insert the end of a small-bladed screwdriver under the edges
of each of the three ice maker mounting hole plugs in the
side of the freezer liner, and pry them out of their holes. You
can discard the plugs.
3. For Top/Bottom Freezers Only: Partially install two 3⁄4" hex-
head sheet-metal screws into the two top mounting holes
(shown in the diagram) of the freezer liner. You will hang the
ice maker over these two screws later, so make sure that
they protrude out far enough.
4. For Side-By-Side Models Only: Refer to DETAIL A and mount
the two mounting clips (from the ice maker kit) to the top
mounting holes of the freezer liner with two 3⁄4" hex-head
sheet-metal screws. Make sure that both clips hang straight
down and then tighten the screws.
