• Following installation or water filter replacement, the first few batches of ice may be semicircular or contain air bubbles. • If the water pressure is less than 20 psi (138 kPa) or a reverse osmosis system is used, the shape of the ice may vary. • The ice may look cloudy depending on the water quality in the installation location and the operating conditions. • Throw away any shards of ice you may find in the ice bin, as they may stick to the ice stored in the ice bin. • After a short term power outage, it will take longer to make the first batch of ice, and the ice may not be round. If the power will be out for a longer period, throw away the ice stored in the ice bin. • The Craft Ice icemaker produces 1 batch of round ice (3 pieces) at a time. • In 3 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker produces 1 batch of round ice (3 pieces) about every 24 hours. In 6 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker produces 2 batches of round ice (6 pieces total) in the same period. • For more ice, select the 6 ICE mode. For clearer ice, select the 3 ICE mode. • The time needed to make ice may vary according to operating conditions. • The ice bin stores 20 - 30 pieces of round ice. Turning the Icemaker On/Off To turn icemakers On/Off, refer to Control Panel in the Operation section. Normal Sounds You May Hear • Keeping the power turned on to the icemaker before the water line is connected can damage the icemaker. • You will hear the sound of ice dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills. • The icemaker water valve buzzes as the icemakers fill with water. If the icemakers are turned on, they will buzz even if they have not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing: - Turn icemakers off by refering to Control Panel in the Operation section. OPERATION 29 Preparing for Vacation Turn icemakers off and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator. To turn the icemakers off, refer to Control Panel in the Operation section. NOTE • The ice bin should be emptied any time icemakers are turned Off. If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified technician drain the water supply system to prevent serious property damage due to flooding caused by ruptured water lines or connections. Storing Food NOTE • If you are leaving home for a short period, like a short vacation, the refrigerator should be left on. Refrigerated foods that are able to be frozen will stay preserved longer if stored in the freezer. • If you are leaving the refrigerator turned off for an extended period, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean the interior, and leave the door open to prevent fungi from growing in the refrigerator. • If doors are opened or closed too often, warm air may penetrate the refrigerator and raise its temperature. This can increase the running costs of the unit. Food Storage Tips Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator. For dated products, check date code to ensure freshness. CAUTION • Do not overfill or pack items too tightly into door bins. Doing so may cause damage to the bin or personal injury if items are removed with excessive force. • Do not store glass containers in the freezer. Contents may expand when frozen, break the container and cause injury. ENGLISH
