Automatic Icemaker
(on some models)
The icemaker will produce eight cubes per
cycle—approximately 120 cubes in a 24-hour
period, depending on freezer compartment
temperature, room temperature, number
of door openings and other use conditions.
If the refrigerator is operated before the
water connection is made to the icemaker,
keep the feeler arm in the STOP (up)
position.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, move the feeler arm to
the ON (down) position.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools
to freezing. A newly-installed refrigerator may
take 8 to 12 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 swing of
the feeler arm.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined
together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes
will become cloudy and taste stale.

Drawer Removal
Drawers can easily be removed by tilting up
slightly and pulling past stop location.
On some models you may need to remove the
door bins from the fresh food door before
removing the drawers.
If the door prevents you from taking out
the drawers, the refrigerator will need to
be rolled forward until the door opens
enough to slide the drawers out. In some
cases when you roll the refrigerator out you
will need to move the refrigerator to the left
as you roll it out.
When replacing the drawers, make
sure you slide them through the
drawer guides on the left side.
Raise the access door to reach the
icemaker bin.

Icemaker Accessory Kit
If your refrigerator did not come already
equipped with an automatic icemaker,
an icemaker accessory kit is available at
extra cost.
Check the back of the refrigerator for
the specific icemaker kit needed for
your model.
