About the automatic icemaker.

Automatic Icemaker

(on some models)

The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle—

approximately 100–130 cubes in a 24-hour period,

depending on freezer compartment temperature,

room temperature, number of door openings and

other use conditions.
See below for how to access ice and reach the

power switch.
If the refrigerator is operated before the water

connection is made to the icemaker, set the power

switch in the O (off) position.
When the refrigerator has been connected to the

water supply, set the power switch to the l (on)

position. The icemaker power light will turn green

when the freezer light switch is pressed in or when

the freezer door is closed.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to

15°F (–10°C). A newly installed refrigerator may take

12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes.

You will hear a buzzing sound each time

the icemaker fills with water.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow

the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep

of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the

icemaker will stop producing ice. It is normal for

several cubes to be joined together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will

become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water

pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple

times when making one batch of ice.
NOTE: Set the power switch to the O (off) position if

the water supply is shut off.

A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.

system. Press the dispenser arm and run 1

To Use the Internal Dispenser

(on some models)

The water dispenser is located on the left wall inside

the refrigerator compartment.
To dispense water:

Hold the glass against the recess.
Push the water dispenser button.
Hold the glass underneath the dispenser for

2–3 seconds after releasing the dispenser

button. Water may continue to dispense after

the button is released.

If no water is dispensed when the refrigerator is first

installed, there may be air in the water line system.

Press the dispenser button for at least 2 minutes to

remove trapped air from the water line and to fill the

water system. During this process, the dispenser noise

may be loud as the air is purged from the water line

system. To flush out impurities in the water line, throw

away the first 6 glassfuls of water.
NOTE: To avoid water deposits, the dispenser

should be cleaned periodically by wiping with

a clean cloth or sponge.
