Utility Compartment
The utility compartment may be removed for easier cleaning.
To remove and replace the utility compartment:
1. Remove the utility compartment by squeezing against one
side while raising the utility compartment up and pulling it
straight out.
2. Replace the utility compartment by positioning one side in the
lock and sliding in the opposite side until it stops.
Ice Maker
IMPORTANT: For models with a water lter, after connecting the
refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water lter, ll and
discard three full containers of ice to prepare the water lter for
use.
For products without any part of the ice dispensing circuit, ice
maker and internal water circuit parts can only be installed by the
Manufacturer or by its Service Agent.
For Easy Connect (ice maker ready) products, ice maker can be
easily installed by the user, following instruction given with the kit.
In "Accessories" part of this manual you can nd the ice maker
part number to be purchased.
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shut-off arm.
To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shut-off arm to the
Off (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made,
the ice cubes will ll the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will
raise the wire shut-off arm to the Off (arm up) position. Do not
force the wire shut-off arm up or down.
Ice Storage Bin
1. Wash the ice storage bin with mild soap and warm water.
2. Slide the ice storage bin under the ice maker and push it
toward the back as far as it will go.
3. Lower the arm on the ice maker to the On position.
NOTE: It usually takes approximately 24 hours for the ice
maker to begin producing ice. You may notice the ice has
an “off-taste.” If so, discard the rst three batches of ice
produced. After that the “off-taste” should be gone.
Ice Production Rate
■ The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period. Allow 3 days to completely ll the
ice container.
■ To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperatures. See “Using the Controls.” Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
Remember
■ The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of
the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals
(such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead
to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be
avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly
and is well maintained.
■ Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This
can cause damage to the ice storage bin and the dispenser
mechanism.
■ Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or ice
storage bin.
REFRIGERATOR CARE
Cleaning
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT:
■ Because air circulates between both sections, any odors
formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid
odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods
tightly.
■ For stainless steel models, stainless steel is corrosion
resistant and not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion of
your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using the
following cleaning instructions.
To Clean Your Refrigerator:
NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, ammable uids, muriatic acid,
cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers
containing petroleum products on exterior surfaces (doors and
cabinet), plastic parts, interior and door liners, or gaskets. Do not
use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
WARNING

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or re.
