The ice cube mold automatically fills with water after
cooling to freezing temperatures. First cubes normally
freeze after several hours.
NOTE: With a newly-installed refrigerator, allow
about 24 hours for the freezer compartment to cool
down to the proper ice-making temperature.
Once Your Icemaker and Dispenser are in Operation
Throw away the first few batches of ice cubes (16 or
24 cubes). This will
flush
away any impurities in the
water line. Do the same thing after vacations or
extended periods when ice isn’t used.
To clean out the line, pour the first six
glassfuls
of water
in the kitchen sink. The first water through the system
picks up a slight “plastic” taste from the water tubing.
To
make sure the bin
fills
with ice, level the cubes
occasionally.
When cubes fall into the bin they may pile
up close to the icemaker and push the feeler arm to the
STOP position before the bin gets full. Keeping the
cubes level allows the icemaker to fill the bin.
Caution:
Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may be
discolored, usually appearing with a green-bluish
color. The cause of 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 such discoloration is
observed, discard the ice cubes and contact your GE
Factory Service Center or an authorized Customer
Care” Servicer.
