IMPORTANT
Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can
work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you
do not fill the water tank, set the ice maker’s On/
Off feature to Off; otherwise, the ice maker’s fill
valve may make a loud chattering noise when it
attempts to operate without water.
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker’s On/Off
feature on the control panel. Pressing the On/Off
feature turns the ice maker on & off.
NOTE: The ice maker also has a built-in plastic
signal arm that automatically stops ice production
when the ice bin is full. This signal arm should not
be used to manually stop the ice maker.
IMPORTANT
Turning off the ice maker simply disables ice making.
You will still be able to dispense existing ice, and
you will still be able to dispense water.

Ice maker/Dispenser tips
CAUTION
If the water supply to your refrigerator is softened,
be sure the softener is properly maintained.
Chemicals from a water softener can damage
the
ice maker.
CAUTION
Do not fill the Water tank with anything other then
clean water (Filtered or Mineral water).
Soft drink, juice, tea or hot water etc, can damage
your automatic icemaker.
The Water tank can withstand a maximum water
temperature of 60°C
Tip and Useful Information
Remove and clean ice bin and water tank once a
month, discarding unused ice and water. This will
ensure fresh ice and smooth operation of your
icemaker.
Make sure your refr
igerator is level to avoid
uneven ice cubes.
Ice Maker operation & care
A
fter the refrigerator is installed pro
perly and has
cooled for several hours, the ice maker can produce ice
within 24 hou
rs. The ice maker will fill the ice bin from
the rear. Yo
u must dispense some ice to force the ice
forward in the bin. This will allow the bin to fill
completely.
Ice Maker and storage bin capacity
This ice maker should produce 2.5 to 3 pounds of ice
per 24 hours. The ice bin will hold about 4 pounds of
ice.
Dispenser
NOTE: The water dispenser h
as a built-in device
that shuts off the water flow after three minutes of
continuous use. To reset this shutoff device,
simply release the dispenser paddle.
Only the first 26 ounces (750 ml
) of dispensed
water is chilled.
