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
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to
break up the ice. This could damage the ice bin and
dispenser mechanism.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water. Before replacing
the ice bin, make sure it is completely dry.
IMPORTANT
When removing or replacing the ice bin, DO NOT rotate
the auger in the ice bin. If the auger is accidentally rotated,
you must realign the auger by turning it in 45 degree turns
(seebelow)untiltheicebintsintoplacewiththedrive
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.

Ice maker/dispenser tips
• If your refrigerator is not connected to a water
supply or the water supply is turned off, turn off the
ice maker by holding the On/Off soft-touch icon for
three seconds.
• 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
• When dispensing ice, you will hear a snapping or
clicking sound when the ice chute opens and closes.
• If you need a large quantity of ice at one time, it is
best to get cubes directly from the ice bin.

quantity of little pieces along with the whole cubes.

Removing Ice Bin
Remove and empty the ice bin if:
• An extended power failure (one hour or longer)
causes ice cubes in the ice bin to melt and freeze
together, jamming the dispenser mechanism.
• You do not use the ice dispenser frequently. Ice
cubes will freeze together in the bin, jamming the
dispenser mechanism.
Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen the cubes or
clean as explained above.
