Before Using the In-Door Icemaker

Keep hands and tools out of the ice compartment. Failure to do so may result in damage or personal injury.Throw away the first few batches of ice after installation. This is also necessary if the freezer has not been used for a long time.Never store beverage cans or other items in the ice bin for the purpose of rapid cooling. Doing so may damage the icemaker or the containers may burst.Ice is made in the automatic in-door icemaker and sent to the dispenser. The icemaker produces 6 cubes at a time, 70 - 120 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other operating conditions.The icemaker begins producing ice approximately 12 hours after the appliance is initially installed.Throw away the first few batches of ice after installation.The sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice production will stop.Ice cubes which are stored in the ice bin for a long time may clump together and be difficult to separate. If this happens, empty the ice bin completely and clean it before reinstalling it.Foreign substances or frost on the auto shutoff (feeler arm) can interrupt ice production. Make sure the auto shutoff (feeler arm) area is clean at all times for proper operation.To increase ice production, use the Ice Plus function. The function increases both ice making and freezing capabilities.

Normal Sounds You May Hear

Keeping the power turned on to the icemaker before the water line is connected can damage the icemaker.The icemaker water valve buzzes as the icemaker fills with water. If the icemaker power button is in the ON position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing, press the icemaker power button to turn it off.You will hear the sound of ice dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills.

Preparing for Vacation

Set the icemaker power button to OFF and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator.The ice bin should be emptied any time the icemaker power button is turned to the OFF position.If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified technician drain the water supply system to prevent serious property damage due to flooding caused by ruptured water lines or connections.
