Fast Ice will remain on for 24 hours unless manually turned off. NOTES: ■ Fast Ice works only if the ice maker is turned on. See "Ice Maker and Storage Bin." ■ If increased ice production is desired at all times, change the freezer set point to a lower setting. Setting the freezer to a colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice cream, harder. 17
