Ice Maker And Ice Storage Bin (On Some Models); Water Filtration System - Whirlpool WRX986SIHZ Manual Del Usuario

To Clean the Ice Dispenser Chute:
Humidity causes ice to naturally clump together. Ice particles can build
up until the ice dispenser chute becomes blocked.
If ice is not dispensed regularly, it may be necessary to empty the ice
storage bin and clean the ice delivery chute, the ice storage bin and
the area beneath the storage bin every 2 weeks.
Remove the ice clogging the storage bin and delivery chute, using
J
a plastic utensil if necessary.
Clean the ice delivery chute and the bottom of the ice storage bin
J
using a warm, damp cloth, then dry thoroughly.

Ice Maker and Ice Storage Bin
(on some models)
IMPORTANT: To avoid low ice production and poor quality ice,
flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See "Water
Dispenser."
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first
J
three batches of ice produced. Allow 2 to 3 days for the storage
bin to fill completely following installation.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
J
water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker
to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt)
can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If
a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water
softener is operating properly and is well maintained.
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice. This can cause
J
damage to the ice bin and the dispenser mechanism.
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or ice storage
J
bin.
Ice Production Rate
The ice maker should produce approximately 3 lbs (1.4 kg) of ice
J
per day under normal operation.
To increase ice production, select the increased ice production
J
feature from the Options menu on the control panel. See "Using
the Controls."
Ice Maker
The ice maker is located on the left-hand side of the refrigerator
compartment ceiling. Ice cubes are ejected into the ice storage bin,
located on the left-hand refrigerator door.
