ICE SERVICE CONTROLS If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, no ice will be produced during the first 24 hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle two or three times before making a full tray of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately one to two days to fill the ice container. New plumbing connections may cause the first production of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor. Discard ice made during the first 24 hours.  NOTE Automatic ice makers are also optional accessories that may be installed in most models at any time. Call your local dealer for information. Refrigerator & Freezer Controls  NOTE When first turning refrigerator on, move control(s) to Normal. This is the recommended initial setting. After 24 hours, adjust the controls as needed. Cold Normal Colder Turning your Ice Maker On After the plumbing connections have been completed, the water supply valve must be opened. Place the ice container under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower the wire signal arm to its "down" or ON position. Auxiliary Freezer Control Turning your Ice Maker Off To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the "up" or OFF position. The ice maker also turns off automatically when the ice container is full. Allow 24 hrs for adjustments Normal Cold Colder ON Refrigerator/Freezer Control OFF Wire Signal Arm IMPORTANT Your ice maker is shipped from the factory with the wire signal arm in the ON position. To ensure proper function for your ice maker, hook up water supply immediately or turn ice maker OFF by lifting the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the UP position. If the ice maker is not turned off and the water supply is not connected, the water valve will make a loud chattering noise. Cool Down Period To ensure safe food storage, allow the refrigerator to operate with the doors closed for at least 8 to 12 hours before loading it with food. Temperature Adjustment • Adjust temperature gradually: move the knob in small increments, allowing the temperature to stabilize. Turning the refrigerator/freezer control will change temperatures in both compartments. The auxiliary freezer control has no effect on electrical power to the refrigerator. To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. For good circulation, do not block cold air vents with food items. IMPORTANT Turning the refrigerator/freezer temperature control to "0" turns off the compressor and prevents the refrigerator from cooling, but does not disconnect the power to the light bulb and other electrical components. To turn off power to your refrigerator, you must unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. 9
