AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER FRIGIDAIRE PROFESSIONAL Cleaning the storage bin Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals, especially prior to vacation or moving. 1 Turn off the ice maker. 2 Remove the ice bin by Removing Ice Bin lifting up slightly on the front of the bin and pulling it straight out of the ice maker housing. 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. Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen the cubes or clean as explained above. CAUTION 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. CAUTION Be sure to firmly support the underside of the ice bin when removing it from the refrigerator. A standard depth bin that is full of ice will weigh about 15 pounds total, and a counter depth bin that is full of ice will weigh about 12 pounds total. 3 Empty and carefully clean the ice bin with mild detergent. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. Rinse with clear water. 4 Allow the ice bin to dry completely before replacing in the freezer. 5 Remove ice chips and clean the ice bin shelf and the freezer door chute. 6 Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on to resume ice production. IMPORTANT When removing or replacing the ice bin, avoid rotating the auger in the ice bin. If the auger is accidentally rotated, you must realign the auger by turning it in 45 degree turns (see below) until the ice bin fits into place with the drive mechanism. If the auger is not properly aligned when replacing the ice bin, the refrigerator will not dispense ice. The freezer door also may not close properly causing warm air to leak into the freezer compartment. Auger Adjusting Ice Bin Auger 25
