AUTOMATIC ICE AND WATER DISPENSER
Cleaning the ice maker
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at
regular intervals, especially prior to
vacation or moving.
Removing Ice Bin
1. Turn off the ice maker.
2. Lift the ice bin upward then pull straight
out to remove.
3. Empty and carefully clean the ice bin
with mild detergent. Do not use harsh or
abrasive cleaners. Rinse with clean water.
4. Allow the ice bin to dry completely
before replacing in the freezer.
5. Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on.
Remove and empty the ice bin if:
•
An extended power failure (one hour
or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice
bin to melt and refreeze together
after power is restored, jamming the
dispenser mechanism.
•
You do not use the ice dispenser
frequently. Ice cubes will freeze
together in the bin, jamming the
dispenser mechanism.

Refrigerator Ice Maker
NEVER use an ice pick or similar
sharp instrument to break up the ice.
This could damage the ice bin and
dispenser mechanism.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water.
Before replacing the ice bin, make sure it
is completely dry.
When removing or replacing the ice bin,
avoid rotating the auger in the ice bin.
If you accidentally rotate the auger, you
must realign the auger by turning it in 45°
turns (see below) until the ice bin fits into
place with the drive mechanism. If you do
not properly align the auger when replac-
ing the ice bin, the refrigerator will not
dispense ice. The refrigerator door also
may not close properly causing warm air
to leak into the refrigerator compartment.
