Ice maker operation & care
After the refrigerator is installed properly, the ice maker
can produce ice within 24 hours. It can completely fill an
ice bin in about three days.
When using the ice maker for the first time and in order
for the ice maker to work properly, it is necessary to
clear air from water filter tubing. Once ice maker begins
making ice, allow the bucket to fill completely, then
discard the first TWO FULL buckets of ice. It will take at
least two days to completely fill the bucket on regular
ice making mode or 11/2days on fast ice mode.
The ice maker produces approximately four pounds of
ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.
• The following sounds are normal when the ice maker
is operating:
Motor running
Ice dropping into ice bin
Water valve opening or closing
Running water
• Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor.
Empty the ice bin as explained below.
Fast Ice Function
Your refrigerator is equipped with a Smart Fast Ice
Function, that will, if activated at your user interface,
allow an increase in ice production. You do not need to
deactivate it, if not needed, your refrigerator will operate
on normal conditions.
Turning the ice maker on and off
Ice production is controlled by lifting/lowering the ice
maker's wire signal arm. To gain access to the ice
maker, pull the freezer drawer out. Lift the wire signal
arm to turn the ice maker OFF and lower the wire signal
arm to turn it ON.
Ice maker tips
