Ice Service
If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, mini-
mal ice will be produced during the first 24 hours of
operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the
ice maker to cycle 2 or 3 times before making a full
tray of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately 1
to 2 days to fill the ice bin.
New plumbing connections may cause the first pro-
duction of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd
flavor. Discard ice made during the first 24 hours.
Turning Your Ice Maker On
After the plumbing connections have been
completed, the water supply valve must be opened.
Place the ice bin under the ice maker, pushing it as
far back as possible. Press the ice maker’s On/O
button. The button will illuminate in green when the
ice maker is On.
Turning Your Ice Maker O
To stop the ice maker, press the ice maker’s On/O
button. The ice maker also stops producing
ice automatically when the bin is full, and then it
resumes when the level in the bin drops.
IMPORTANT
To ensure proper function for your ice maker, hook
up water supply immediately or turn ice maker OFF.
If the ice maker is on and the water supply is not
connected, the water valve can make a loud chat-
tering noise.
Ice Production: What To Expect
The ice maker will produce about 2 pounds of ice
every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.
Note: You can make more ice by setting the freezer
to a colder setting. Ice is produced at a rate of 10
cubes every 100 to 160 minutes.
Ice Maker Tips
CAUTION
Do Not place the ice container in your dishwasher.
• Wash ice container in warm water with mild
detergent. Rinse well and dry.
• Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer or
for short vacations.
• If the ice maker will be turned o for a long
period of time, turn the water supply valve to
the closed position.
Remember that water quality determines your ice
quality. If the water source uses a water softener,
ensure that the softener is maintained and working
properly. Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener
can damage the ice maker.
CAUTION
Do Not place the ice container in your dishwasher.
