AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER - FREEZER
IMPORTANT
Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can
work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you
cannot connect a water supply, lift the ice maker’s wire
signal arm to turn it off. Otherwise, the ice maker’s

CAUTION
If the water supply to your refrigerator is softened, be
sure the softener is properly maintained. Chemicals
from a water softener can damage the ice maker.
CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to
break up the ice. This could damage the ice bin.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water. Before replacing
the ice bin, make sure it is completely dry.
