To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal
arm until it clicks and locks in the “up” or
OFF position. The ice maker also turns off
automatically when the ice container is full.

ICE PRODUCTION: WHAT TO
EXPECT
The ice maker will produce 2.5 to 3 pounds
of ice every 24 hours depending on usage
conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 8 cubes
every 75 to 160 minutes.
NOTE
Automatic ice makers are also optional
accessories that may be installed in most
models at any time. Call your local dealer for
information.
CAUTION
Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener
can damage the ice maker. If the ice maker
is connected to soft water, ensure that the
softener is maintained and working properly.

until it clicks and locks in the UP position.
If the ice maker is not turned off and
the water supply is not connected,
the water valve will make a loud
chattering noise.

dishwasher.
