Integrated Use & Care 16 Ice Maker Operation The ice maker in your integrated combination or freezer model is fully automatic and has been factory tested. It requires a connection to the house water supply. To put into operation, the ice maker system must be turned on by the ICE ON/OFF key pad, located on the electronic control panel. Refer to ice maker control on page 11. For column models, the ice maker must be turned off at the control panel when the ice storage container is removed. For tall and drawer models, the ice maker shuts off when you remove the ice storage container. When you reinstall the container, the ice maker will resume ice production. IMPORTANT NOTE: The first container filled with ice should be discarded, as with any new connection there may be impurities in the ice from the water supply line. Sounds You may hear some noises in the normal operation of the integrated unit. Surrounding acoustics like walls, floors and cabinets may affect the sound of your unit. For example, a gurgling or running water sound is probably refrigerant circulating through the tubing. During the ice maker cycle you may hear the sound of ice dropping into the container or the solenoid valve operating while refilling the ice maker with water. During the freezer defrost you may hear crackling and/or sizzling as the heat from the defrost element clears the frost from the freezer coil and water runs into the water pan. While the compressors are in operation, you may hear a slight hum. During the start-up and shutdown of the compressor, you may feel vibration for a few seconds. Some of these noises may be enhanced when the unit's door or drawers are open.
