OPERATION 29 ENGLISH Automatic Icemaker (continued) CAUTION T water dispensed may include particles or odor from the water supply line or the water tank. Throw awa few batches of ice (about 24 cubes).This is also necessary if the refrigerator has not been used for a long time. Never store beverage cans or other items in the ice bin for the purpose of rapid cooling. Doing so may damage the icemaker or the containers may burst. If discolored ice is dispensed, check the w water supply. If the prob- lem continues, cont center. Do not use the ice or water until the problem is corrected. Keep children away from the dispenser. Children may play with or damage the controls. The ice passage may become blocked with frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates by removing the ice bin and clearing the passage with a rubber spatula. Dispensing cubed ice can also help prevent frost buildup. Never use thin crystal glass or crockery to collect ice. Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments in the ice. Dispense ice into a glass bef with water or other beverages. Splashing may occur if ice is dispensed into a glass that already contains liquid. Never use a glass that is exceptionally narrow or deep. Ice may jam in the ice passage and refrigerator performance may be a ected. Keep the glass at a proper distance from the ice outlet. A glass held too close to the outlet may prevent ice from dispensing. To avoid personal injury, keep hands out of the ice door and passage. Never remove the dispenser cover. In-Door Ice Bin The icemaker stops producing ice when the indoor ice bin is full. To make room for additional ice, empty the ice bin into another location in the freezer compartment. During use, the ice may stack unevenly in the bin, causing the icemaker to misread the level in the bin and stop producing ice. Shaking the ice bin to level the ice within it can reduce this problem. CAUTION • When handling the ice bin, keep hands away from the icemaker tray area to avoid personal injury. • Storing cans or other items in the ice bin will damage the icemaker. • Never use thin crystal glasses or containers to collect ice. Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments in the ice. If the icemaker is turned OFF for an extended period of time, the ice compartment will gradually warm up to the temperature of the refrigerator compartment. To prevent ice cubes from melting and leaking from the dispenser, ALWAYS empty the ice bin when the icemaker is turned OFF for more than a few hours. The ice passage may become blocked with frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates by removing the ice bin and clearing the passage with a rubber spatula. Dispensing cubed ice can also help prevent frost buildup. Removing the Ice Bin 1 Lift the ice storage bin slightly NOTE: Use both hands to remove the ice bin to avoid dropping it.
