AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER Ice is made in the automatic icemaker and sent to the dispenser. The automatic icemaker can make 6 ice cubes at a time, 80-130 cubes per 24-hour period. This quantity may vary by circumstance, including freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings, freezer load, and other operating conditions. • It takes about 12 to 24 hours for a newly installed refrigerator to make ice. • Icemaking stops when the ice storage bin is full. • To turn off the automatic icemaker, set the icemaker switch to OFF(O). To turn on the automatic icemaker, set the switch to ON(I). • You can regulate the cube size by pressing the Cube Size Select Button. NOTE: It is normal that a noise is produced when ice drops into the ice storage bin. • Even when the water pipe is not connected and the Ice Maker is turned on, the water valve operates. The noise is generated because the water pipe is not connected, which does not mean the icemaker is defective. Personal injury Hazard Avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the heating element that releases the cubes. DO NOT place fingers or hands on the automatic icemaking mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
