Automatic Icemaker (freezer models)
30" Bottom-Freezer
Automatic
icemaker
A newly installed refrigerator may take 12–24
hours to begin making ice. The refrigerator
is shipped with the icemaker set to ON.
The icemaker will produce seven cubes per
cycle—approximately 15 cycles 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, set the
icemaker to OFF. To set the icemaker to OFF,
press the ZONE indicator on the control pad
twice to select the freezer drawer. Press the ICE
icon to the right. The line under ICE will
disappear and the word OFF will show under ICE.
Throw away the first full bucket of ice.
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.
After the icemaker has been turned on again,
there will be a delay of about 45 minutes before
the icemaker resumes operations.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average
water pressure, you may hear the icemaker
water valve cycle on several times when
making one batch of ice.
NOTE: Icemaker works best between
40 and 120 PSI home water pressure.
