How Your Ice Maker Works
When you first start your ice maker, the water pan will fill and the
system will rinse itself before starting to make ice. The rinsing process
takes about 5 minutes.
Under normal operating conditions, the ice maker will cycle at preset
temperatures. The ice level sensor located in the ice storage bin will
monitor the ice levels.
IMPORTANT: If the water supply to the ice maker is turned off, be sure
to set the ice maker control to OFF.
The Ice Making Process
1. Water is constantly circulated over a
freezing plate. As the water freezes into
ice, the minerals in the water are
rejected. This produces a sheet of ice
with a low mineral content.
