ABOUT THE AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER WARNING Personal Injury Hazard DO NOT insert your hands in to the Icemaker in operation. It may cause to injure you. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice. Automatic Shut off Arm Power Switch The icemaker will produce 12 cubes per cycle- approximately 90-130 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other operating conditions. If the refrigerator is used before the water connection is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to O (off). When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, set the power switch to I (on). The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to freezing. 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 Automatic Shut off Arm. When the bin fills to the level of the Automatic Shut off Arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice. It is normal for several cubes to be stuck together. If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale, and shrink. NOTE: If the cube size is smaller or larger than you expected, you can regulate the size with the cube size button. Every time you press the cube size button, the indicator moves up one light. The higher the light position, the larger the cubes will be. Pressing at the highest position returns the indicator to the lowest position. WHEN YOU SHOULD SET THE ICEMAKER POWER SWITCH TO O (OFF) • When the water supply will be shut off for several hours. • When the ice storage bin is removed for more than a minute or two. • When the refrigerator will not be used for several days. NORMAL SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR • The icemaker water valve will buzz as the icemaker fills with water. If the power switch is in the I (on) position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing, move the power switch to O (off). NOTE: Keeping the power switch in the I (on) 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 refills. PREPARING FOR VACATION Set the icemaker power switch to O (off) and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator. If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified servicer drain the water supply system to prevent serious property damage due to flooding from ruptured water lines or connections. 29
