Automatic ice makers are also optional
accessories that may be installed in most
models at any time. Call your local dealer for
information.
TURNING YOUR ICE MAKER ON
After the plumbing connections have been
completed, the water supply valve must be
opened. Place the ice container under the ice
maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower
the wire signal arm to its "down" or ON position.
TURNING YOUR ICE MAKER OFF
To stop the ice
maker, lift the
wire signal arm
until it clicks
and locks in
the "up" or
OFF position.
The ice maker
also turns off
automatically
when the ice
container is full.
If your model
has an adjustable freezer shelf, place the shelf
in the lower position, so that the wire signal arm
will hit the ice when the container is full.
Your ice maker is shipped from the factory
with the wire signal arm in the ON position.
To ensure proper function of your ice maker,
hook up water supply immediately or turn
ice maker OFF by lifting the wire signal arm
until it clicks and locks in the UP position.
If the ice maker is not turned off and the
water supply is not connected, the water
valve will make a loud chattering noise.
ICE PRODUCTION: WHAT TO
EXPECT
The ice maker will produce 2.5 to 3 pounds
of ice every 24 hours depending on usage
conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 8 cubes
every 80 to 160 minutes.
Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener
can damage the ice maker. If the ice maker
is connected to soft water, ensure that the
softener is maintained and working properly.
ICE HA|(ER TIPS
Ice cubes stored too long may develop an
odd flavor. Empty the ice container and
ensure that the wire signal arm is in its
"down" or ON position. The ice maker will
then produce more ice.
Occasionally shake the ice container to
keep ice separated.
Stop the ice maker when cleaning the
freezer and during vacations.
If the ice maker will be turned off for a
long period of time, turn the water supply
valve to a closed position.
For information on ice maker noises, see
Normal Operating Sounds and Sights
section.
Do Not place the ice container in your
dishwasher.
Wash the ice container in warm water with
mild detergent. Rinse well and dry.
Stop the ice maker when cleaning the
freezer and during vacations.
If the ice maker will be turned off for a
long period of time, turn the water supply
valve to the closed position.
