Automatic Icemaker
The icemaker will produce seven cubes
per cycle—approximately 100–130 cubes
in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment
temperature, room temperature, number of door openings
and other use conditions.
If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection is
made to the icemaker, set the power switch in the OFF
position.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, set the power switch
to the ON position.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to 15°F (–10°C). A
newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin
making
ice cubes.
You will hear a buzzing sound each time
the icemaker fills with water.
Throw away the first few batches of ice
to allow the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep
of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the icemaker
will stop producing ice.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy,
taste stale and shrink.
Special note about dispenser models:
Some models have a tilt-out ice bin.
The bin can be tilted out as shown in the illustrations, and it
will hold itself up while you take ice out or turn the icemaker
power switch on and off. Be sure to put the bin back in
place before closing the door.
To restore your ice level from an empty bucket stage, the
following steps are recommended:
12 hours after the first batch of ice has fallen into the bin,
dispense 3 to 4 cubes.
After an additional 6 hours, dispense
3 to 4 cubes again.
These steps will restore your ice level in
the shortest amount of time.
A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
