CE AND
Automatic Ice Maker
(select models)
Note:
Energy rating guides that are posted on the
refrigerator at the time of purchase do not include
optional ice maker energy usage.
Some models are automatic ice maker ready. The
number of the appropriate ice maker kit is IC10S. The
kit contains installation instructions and water
connection instructions.
Other models have a factory installed ice maker.
Connect the ice maker to the water supply as
instructed on pages 6-7. Proper water flow and a
level refrigerator are essential for optimal ice
maker performance.
Operating Instructions
• Confirm ice bin is in place and ice maker arm is
down.
• To check the ice level or gain
access to the ice bin, lift open the
door on the ice bin.
• After freezer section reaches
between 0° to 2° F (-18° to -17° C),
ice maker fills with water and
begins operating. You will have a complete harvest of
ice approximately every three hours.
• Allow approximately 3-6 hours after installation to
receive first harvest of ice.
• Discard ice created within first 12 hours of operation
to verify system is flushed of impurities.
• Stop ice production by raising ice maker arm until
click is heard.
• Ice maker will remain in the OFF position until arm is
pushed down.
• The first one or two batches will probably contain
undersized and irregular cubes because of air in the
supply line.
• When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for
several cubes to be joined together at the ends. They
can easily be broken apart. The ice maker will
continue to make ice until the supply of ice cubes
raises the ice maker arm, shutting the ice maker off.
• Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of
the ice maker. The motor may have a slight hum, the
cubes will rattle as they fall into an empty storage
W
ATER
pan and the water valve may click or "buzz"
occasionally.
• If the ice is not used frequently, the ice cubes will
become cloudy, shrink, stick together and taste stale.
Empty the ice storage bin periodically and wash it in
lukewarm water. Be sure to dry the bin thoroughly
before replacing it.
• Beverages and foods should not be placed in the
ice storage bin for quick chilling. These items can
block the ice maker arm, causing the ice maker to
malfunction.
• Turn OFF the ice maker by raising the ice maker arm
when the water supply is to be shut off for several
hours.
To Remove the Ice Bin:
• Pull it forward, away from the ice maker. To avoid the
ice maker dumping ice while the bin is removed, turn
the ice maker OFF by raising the sensor arm.
To Install the Ice Bin:
• Reverse the above procedure. Turn the ice maker ON
by lowering the ice maker arm.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage,
observe the following:
• Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic ice
making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged
in. This will help protect you from possible injury. It
will also prevent interference with moving parts of
the ejector mechanism and the heating element that
releases the cubes.
• Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may be
discolored, usually appearing with a green-bluish
hue. The cause of this unusual discoloration can be
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 ice maker.
Continued consumption of such discolored ice cubes
may be injurious to health. If such discoloration is
observed, discard the ice cubes and contact your
dealer to purchase and install a water line filter.
• Water damage due to improper water connection
may cause mold/mildew growth.
• Clean up water and ice spills to avoid personal injury
and to prevent mold/mildew growth.
