ICE MAKER
Ice Maker Operation and Care
After you have properly installed the
refrigerator, the ice maker can produce
ice within 24hours. When using the ice
maker for the first time, and in order
for it to work properly, you need to
clear air from the water tubing and the
filter. Furthermore, if you do not flush
the system, the first ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor. Once
the ice maker begins making ice, allow
the bin to fill completely, and then discard
the first FULL bin of ice.
Ice Maker and Storage Bin Capacity
This ice maker should produce between 2
and 2.5 lbs of ice per 24 hours depending
on usage conditions. The ice bin will hold
about 6 lbs of ice.
Turning the Ice Maker On and O
Press the power button to turn the ice
maker on (button should illuminate).
Freezer Ice Maker
(optional accessory)
NOTE
The ice maker will only produce the ad-
vertised production rate if the product
is set at 0°F.
CAUTION
Properly maintain the water supply
to the refrigerator if it is softened.
Chemicals from a water softener can
damage the ice maker.
Ice Maker Tips
• The following sounds are normal
when the ice maker is operating:
- Motor running
- Ice dropping into ice bin
- Water valve opening or
closing
- Running water
• Ice cubes stored too long may
develop an odd flavor. Empty the
ice
bin. (See
To remove freezer ice
container in
STORAGE FEATURES).
NOTE
The freezer ice maker fills in the center
of the ice bin. Occasionally move the
ice to the borders to allow the bin to fill
completely.
