About the automatic icemaker. A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice. Power Switch Icemaker Green Power Light Feeler Arm Shelf Ice Drawer Pull the upper freezer shelf straight out to access the icemaker. Always be sure to replace the shelf. The shelf can be used for storage. Automatic Icemaker The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle-approximately 100-130 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other use conditions. To access the icemaker: Pull the shelf above the ice drawer straight out. Always be sure to replace the shelf. If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection is made to the icemaker, set the power switch in the O position. When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, set the power switch to the l position. You will hear a buzzing sound each time the icemaker fills with water. The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to -10°C. A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes. Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow the water line to clear. Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the feeler arm. When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice. It is normal for several cubes to be joined together. If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink. If ice cubes get stuck in the icemaker, the green power light will blink. To correct this, set the power switch to O and remove the cubes. Set the power switch to I to restart the icemaker. After the icemaker has been turned on again, there will be a delay of about 45 minutes before the icemaker resumes operation. NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple times when making one batch of ice. WARNING: Connect to potable water supply only. Installation of the icemaker must be done by a qualified service technician. Ice Storage Drawer To access ice, pull the drawer forward. To remove the drawer, pull it straight out and lift it past the stop location. Ice Drawer 15
