Clean the ice storage bin
1. Empty the ice container. Use warm water to melt the ice if
necessary.
NOTE: Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the
bin or bucket. This can cause damage to the ice container
and the dispenser mechanism.
2. Wash ice bin with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry
thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents.
REMEMBER
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 3 days
to completely fill ice container.
■ Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid
impurities that may be flushed out of the system.
■ 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.
■ It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners.
They will break apart easily.
■ For Style 1 ice maker, do not force the wire shutoff arm up or
down.
■ Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin/bucket.
REFRIGERATOR FEATURES
Refrigerator Shelves
The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to meet your
individual storage needs.
Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and
adjusting the shelves to fit different heights of items will make
finding the exact item you want easier. It will also reduce the
amount of time the refrigerator door is open, and save energy.
Shelves and Shelf Frames
To remove and replace a shelf/frame:
1. Remove the shelf/frame by tilting it up at the front and lifting it
out of the shelf supports. Pull shelf straight out.
2. Replace the shelf/frame by guiding the rear shelf hooks into
the shelf supports. Tilt the front of the shelf up until the rear
shelf hooks drop into the shelf supports.
3. Lower the front of the shelf and check to make sure that the
shelf is securely in position.
Ingredient Care Center
The control for the ingredient care center adjusts the storage
temperature of the pan. Cold air flows into the pan through the air
duct between the freezer and the refrigerator. Setting the controls
allows more or less cold air through the air duct.
To adjust the ingredient care center:
1. Choose a setting based on the item to be stored in the pan.
2. Push the button that corresponds to that setting.
3. The indicator light for that setting will illuminate to verify that
the pan is ready to be loaded.
To remove and replace the ingredient care center cover:
1. Remove food from ingredient care center cover. Pull drawer
out about 4" (10.16 cm). Reach under the glass shelf with
both hands and lift gently upward until back of shelf is free.
Tilt shelf at an angle and remove shelf from refrigerator being
careful not to bump the glass.
2. Replace the cover by holding the glass shelf firmly with both
hands, tilt the shelf at an angle and position it above the
support rails. Place shelf gently on support rails on side wall.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter
into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass
shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when
removing them to avoid impact from dropping.
