Before Using the In-Door Ice Bin
The icemaker stops producing ice when the in-door ice bin is full. To make room for additional ice, empty the ice bin into another location in the freezer compartment. During use, the ice may stack unevenly in the bin, causing the icemaker to misread the number of ice cubes and stop producing ice. Shaking the ice bin to level the ice inside it can reduce this problem.Keep hands and tools out of the in-door ice bin and dispenser chute. Failure to do so may result in damage or personal injury.When handling the ice bin, keep hands away from the icemaker tray area to avoid personal injury.Storing cans or other items in the ice bin will damage the icemaker.Never use thin crystal glasses or containers to collect ice. Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments in the ice.To prevent ice cubes from melting and leaking from the dispenser, ALWAYS empty the ice bin when the icemaker is turned OFF for more than a few hours.The ice passage may become blocked with frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates by removing the ice bin and clearing the passage with a rubber spatula. Dispensing cubed ice can also help prevent frost buildup.
Detaching/Assembling the In-Door Ice Bin
