Automatic Ice & Water Dispenser

ICE DISPENSER OPERATION & CARE

The ice maker, ice bin, and dispenser feeding mechanism are located in the top of

the freezer compartment. After the refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled

for several hours, the ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours. It can completely

fill an ice bin in about two days.

The ice maker produces 4 to 6 pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage

conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 8 cubes every 75 to 90 minutes.

The ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can work as soon as you install your

refrigerator. If you cannot connect a water supply, turn the ice maker's On/Off switch to Off.

Otherwise, the ice maker's fill valve may be noisy when it attempts to operate without water.

Using The Ice Dispenser After Installation

Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the water supply system as

described on page 22. Air in new plumbing lines can result in two or three empty

ice maker cycles. Furthermore, if the system is not flushed,

the first ice cubes may be discolored or have an odd flavor.

NOTE

The ice maker also has a built-in wire signal arm, which

automatically stops ice production when the ice bin is full. This

signal arm should not be used to manually stop the ice maker.

Turning The Ice Dispenser On And Off

Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's On/Off

power switch. Press the switch to the "O" position to turn it

Off and press to the "I" position to turn it On.
