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.
,, Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd
flavor. Empty the ice bin as explained below.
,, When dispensing cubed ice, it is normal to have
a small quantity of little pieces along with the
whole cubes.
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.
Cleaning
the ice maker
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals,
especially prior to vacation or moving=
1 Turn off the ice
maker.
2
Remove the ice bin
by pulling straight
out.
3
Empty and carefully
clean the ice bin
with mild detergent.
Do not use harsh or
abrasive cleaners.
Rinse with clear
water.
Removing Ice Bin
4 Allow the ice bin to dry completely before
replacing in the freezer.
5
Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on.
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.
CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp
instrument to break up the ice. This could damage
the ice bin.
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 (see below) until the ice
bin fits into place with the drive 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.

Most models allow for an additional freezer ice
maker to be installed. Call your local dealer for more
information.
