temperature, and first cubes normally freeze after
several hours°
When cubes are solidly frozen, they will be ejected
from the mold into the ice storage bin by means of
a sweeper arm° tcemaking will continue until the
feeler arm senses that there are enough cubes in
the bin and halts the operation temporarily. Be sure
nothing interferes with the swing of the feeler arm.
For maximum ice storage, level the stored cubes
with your hand occasionally.
Once your icemaker is in operation, throw away
the first few batches of ice cubes. This wilt flush
away any impurities in the water line. Do the same thing
after vacations or long periods when ice isn't used°
CAUTION: Under certain rare circumstances, ice
cubes may be discolored, usually appearing with
a greembluish hue_ This unusual discoloration is
apparently due to a combination of factors such as
certain characteristics of local waters, household
plumbing and the accumulation of copper salts in an
inactive water supply line which feeds the icemaker_
Continued consumption of such discolored ice cubes
may be injurious to health_ If your ice cubes are
discolored, discard them and contact your Sears
Service Center_

concern.
