Your refrigerator has an automatic
icemaker and a dispenser that
dispenses ice cubes and crushed ice
through the freezer compartment
door. Here's how they work.
Automatic icemaker
(1)
fills ice
storage bin
(2).
.-.
J
Pressure on the ice cradle
(3)
activates the motor-powered auger
(4)
which feeds cubes from storage
bin
into glass through chute
(5)
when selector switch is set at ICE
CUBES.
When the switch is moved to
CRUSHED ICE, a baffle
in
the
housing channels cubes through the
crusher
(6)
and crushed ice falls
into the glass through the chute.
Spills are caught
in
a recessed
area
(7).
Water
is
supplied automatically to
the icemaker by a solenoid valve.
A
connection to the household cold
water system is all that's needed.
Important Facts about
Your Dispenser
Your
icemaker will produce an
average of five cubes an hour-
approximately
120
cubes in a
24-
hour period-depending on freezer
compartment temperature, room
temperature, number of door
openings and other use conditions.
The ice storage bin holds about
200
cubes.
Intermittent dispensing of ice is
normal.
If ice flow interruption is
more than brief, ice clumps may be
the cause and should be removed,
following instructions below and
on page
6.
Avoid overfilling glass with ice
and use of narrow
or
extra-tall
glasses.
Backed-up ice can
jam
the
chute or cause the door
in
the chute
to freeze shut. Periodically open
the freezer compartment door and
look down into the chute.
If
ice is
blocking the chute, poke it through
with a wooden spoon.
To
help keep bits of ice from
being sprayed beyond the glass,
place glass close to ice chute-
but not
so
close that it blocks
outcoming ice.
Ice should
not
be dispensed
into thin
glasses,
fine china
or
delicate crystal-they
can crack or
chip from the combined pressure of
your hand pressing them against the
cradle and ice dropping into them.
Ice should be dispensed before
filling
glass
with beverage.
This
will prevent splashing, which is
annoying and which, if the splash
reaches the ice selector switch,
could cause it to stick or bind.
Beverages and foods should not
be quick-chilled in the ice storage
bin.
Cans,
bottles or food packages
in the storage bin may cause the
icemaker to malfunction.
Ice other than that produced
by
your
icemaker should not be
added to the ice storage
bin-it
may not crush or dispense well.
