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.

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ts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.
