Some models are equipped with ice cube

trays and an ice storagebin.To releasethe

ice cubes from a tray, hold the tray upside

down over the bin and twist both ends.

Depending on the model you have cho-

sen, the ice bin either slides into rails

under an ice cube tray rack or stacks

neatly on top of the icecube trays.

Energy rating guides that are post-

ed on the refrigerator at the time of

purchase do not include optional

ice maker energy usage.

Some models are automatic ice maker

ready.The number of the appropriate ice

maker kit needed for installation into

these models appears on the data plate.

The kit contains installation instructions

and water connection instructions.

Other models have a factory installed ice

maker. Connect the ice maker to the

water supply as instructed in the separate

instructions furnished with the refrigera-

tor.Proper water flow and a level refrig-

erator is essential for optimal ice

maker performance.

After your refrigerator has been connect-

ed to the water supply, move the sensor

arm into the down position.The ice maker

will fill with water when the freezer reach-

es the proper temperature.

Some ice makers are equipped with an

adjustable sensor arm that allows you to

adjustthe amountof ice inyour icestorage

trayfor times when less ice is needed.

Wire Lever

Arm

Arm

To adjust the amount of ice produced:

(select models) Rotate the wire lever arm

to provide the desired level of ice produc-

tion. The 100% setting provides maxi-

mum ice production.

It may be 8 to 12 hours before the ice

maker furnishes any usable ice cubes.

The first one or two batches will prob-

ably contain undersized and irregular

cubes because of air in the supply

line.

The initial batch may also contain

impurities from the new water supply

piping. Therefore, all cubes from the

first two or three batches should be

discarded.

When the ice cubes are ejected it is

normal for several cubes to be joined

together at the ends.They can easily

be broken apart. The ice maker will

continue to make ice until the supply

of ice cubes raises the sensor arm,

shutting the ice maker off.

Certain sounds may accompany the

various cycles of the ice maker. The

motor may have a slight hum, the

cubes will rattle as they fall into an

empty storage pan and the water

valve may click or "buzz" occasionally.

If the ice is not used frequently,the ice

cubes will become cloudy, shrink, stick

together and taste stale. Empty the ice

storage bin periodically and wash it in

lukewarm water. Be sure to dry the bin

before replacing it.

To remove the ice bin, pull it forward,

away from the ice maker. To avoid the

ice maker dumping ice while the bin is

removed, turn the ice maker off by lift-

ing the sensor arm.

To replace the ice bin, reverse the

above procedure. Turn the ice maker

on by lowering the sensor arm.

Beverage and foods should not be

placed in the ice storage bin for quick

chilling. These items can block the

sensor arm, causing the ice maker to

malfunction.

Turn off (arm up) the ice maker when

the water supply is to be shut off for

several hours.
