Discard the first three batches of ice produced. ■ The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. ■ To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator temperature. See "Using the Controls." Wait 24 hours between adjustments. NOTE: Setting the freezer to a colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice cream, harder. Remember ■ The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well maintained. ■ Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This can cause damage to the ice bin and dispenser mechanism. ■ Do not store anything in the ice storage bin. Water and Ice Dispensers IMPORTANT: ■ After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water dispenser pad for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed. This will flush air from the filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in some households. As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser. ■ Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water. ■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced. ■ The dispensing system will not operate when the refrigerator door is open. A B A. Water dispenser paddle B. Measuring cup (1 cup) 2.

Ice Production Rate
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period.
To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See “Using the Controls.” Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
NOTE:
Setting the freezer to a colder temperature may make
some foods, such as ice cream, harder.
Remember
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals
(such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to
poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided,
make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well
maintained.
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This
can cause damage to the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.
Do not store anything in the ice storage bin.
