An IM4D ice maker accessory kit is available at extra
cost.
For ice maker installation, follow Installation Instruction

AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER
The ice maker will produce approximately 70-100
cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on the 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 ice maker, set the switch OFF.
When the refrigerator has been connected to the water
supply, set the switch ON position.
The ice maker will fill with water when it cools to 15°F.
A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to
begin making ice cubes.
Once the ice maker starts to make ice, it may take up
to 48 hours to fill the bin, depending on the temperature
settings and number of door openings.

Power Switch
You will hear a buzzing sound each time the ice maker
fills with water.
NOTICE: 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 ice
maker 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, shrink or fuse together.
CAUTION
Avoid contact with the moving parts
of the ejector mechanism, or with the heating element
(located on the bottom of the ice maker) that releases
the cubes. Do not place fingers or hands on the
automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is
plugged in.
