CAUTION
• Avoid touching the auto shutoff (feeler arm)

Automatic Icemaker
WARNING
• DO NOT place fingers in the automatic icemaker
when the refrigerator is plugged in.
• Avoid contact with any moving parts of the
ejector mechanism or with the heater that
releases the ice cubes.
Before Using the In-Door Icemaker
NOTE
• Ice is made in the automatic in-door icemaker
and sent to the dispenser. The icemaker
produces 70 - 182 cubes in a 24-hour period,
depending on freezer compartment
temperature, room temperature, number of
door openings and other operating conditions.
• It takes about 12 to 24 hours for a newly
installed refrigerator to begin making ice.
• Ice-making stops when the in-door ice bin is full.
When full, the in-door ice bin holds
approximately 6 to 8 (12-16 oz.) glasses of ice.
• Foreign substances or frost on the ice-detecting
sensor can interrupt ice production. Make sure
the sensor area is clean at all times for proper
operation.
• To increase ice production, use the Ice Plus
function. The function increases both ice making
and freezing capabilities.
