AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER Using the ice maker after installation Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the water supply system. Air in new plumbing lines can result in two or three empty ice maker cycles. Furthermore, if the system is not flushed, the first ice cubes may be discolored or have an odd flavor.
Ice maker/dispenser tips Remove and empty the ice bin if: • If your refrigerator is not connected to a water supply or the water supply is turned off, turn off the ice maker as described in the previous section. • An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice bin to melt and refreeze together after power is restored, jamming the dispenser mechanism. • The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating: • You do not use the ice dispenser frequently.
IMPORTANT When removing or replacing the ice bin, avoid rotating the auger in the ice bin. If the auger is accidentally rotated, you must realign the auger by turning it in 45 degree turns (see below) until the ice bin fits into place with the drive mechanism. If the auger is not properly aligned when replacing the ice bin, the refrigerator will not dispense ice. The fresh food door also may not close properly causing warm air to leak into the fresh food compartment.
