Priming the Water Supply
System
Your refrigerator's water supply system
includes several tubing lines, an advanced
water filter, and a distribution valve bank to
ensure ample supply to the ice and water
dispenser at all times. This system needs to
be completely filled with water when first
connected to an external supply line.
For proper dispenser operation,
recommended water supply pressure
should fall between 30 psi and 100 psi.
Excessive pressure may cause water filter to
malfunction.
ii
To prime the water supply system:
1 Begin filling the system by pressing and
holding a drinking glass against the water
dispenser paddle.
Keep the glass in this position until water
comes out of the dispenser. It may take
about :!.l/z minutes.
Continue dispensing water for about four
minutes to flush the system and plumbing
connections of any impurities (stopping to
empty the glass as necessary).
How Huch Ice Will a Rear Hounted Ice
Haker Produce in 24 Hours?
A rear mounted ice maker will produce 3 to
4 pounds of ice every 24 hours, depending on
usage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of
8 cubes every 75 to 90 minutes.
Using the Ice Maker after Installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure
to prime the water supply system. Air in new
plumbing lines can result in two or three empty
ice maker cycles. Furthermore, if the system
is not flushed, the first ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor.
Your ice maker is shipped from the factory
with the wire signal arm in the ON position
(side mounted) or with the switch turned
ON (rear mounted). 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 (side mounted)
or turn the On/Off switch to the Off (O)
position (rear mounted). If the ice maker
is not turned off and the water supply
is not connected, the water valve will
..........make a loud chattering noise.
The water dispenser has a built-in device
that shuts off the water flow after three
minutes of continuous use. To reset this
shutoff device, simply release the dispenser
paddle.
Ice Maker Operation & Care
The ice maker, ice bin, and dispenser feeding
mechanism are located in the top of the freezer
compartment. After the refrigerator is installed
properly and has cooled for several hours, the
ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours. ]:t
can completely fill an ice bin in about two days.
Ice Production: What to Expect
How much ice will a side-mounted ice
maker produce in 24 hours?
A side mounted ice maker will produce 4 to
4.5 pounds of ice every 24 hours, depending
on usage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate
of 8 cubes every 75 to 90 minutes.
