29 HOW TO USE ENGLISH Automatic Icemaker (continued) CAUTION  The rst ice produced may include particles or odor from the water supply line or the water tank.  Throw away the rst few batches of ice (about 24 cubes). This is also necessary if the refrigerator 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.  If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water lter and water supply. If the problem continues, contact a quali ed service center. Do not use the ice or water until the problem is corrected.  Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the automatic shut o arm.  It is normal for some cubes to be stuck together.  If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale, and shrink.  Never use thin crystal glass or crockery to collect ice. Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments in the ice. When You Should Turn the Icemaker Off  When the water supply will be shut o for several hours.  When the ice bin is removed for more than one or two minutes.  When the refrigerator will not be used for several days. NOTE The ice bin should be emptied when the icemaker on/o switch is turned to the OFF position. Normal Sounds You May Hear  The icemaker water valve will buzz as the icemaker lls with water. If the power switch is in the ON (I) position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing, move the power switch to OFF (O). NOTE Keeping the power switch in the ON (I) position before the water line is connected can damage the icemaker.  You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker re lls. Preparing For Vacation Set the icemaker power switch to OFF (O) and shut o the water supply to the refrigerator. NOTE The ice bin should be emptied anytime the icemaker on/o switch is turned to the OFF (O) position. If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a quali ed technician drain the water supply system to prevent serious property damage due to ooding caused by ruptured water lines or connections.
