operating the Ice and Water Dispense
Servicing The Ice Dispenser
Certain conditions wiil require you to
service the ice maker and dispenser
The unit has been designed so that you
can do such servicing with a minimum
of effort.
Cold dry air has to circulate in the
freezer to maintain a safe freezing tem­
perature. Thus, cubes stored in the bin
Wifi tend to evaporate and flow together
if not used regularly.
You should remove the bin and
empty the corilents:
• Alter the first few harvests of ice have
been made by a newly insialfed unit.
This wi!i allow any impurities in the
line to be flushed out.
• [f you are going to be gone for longer
than a week. Raise the ice maker
shut-off arm to stop ice production
and prevent the cubes from freezing
into a mass around the ice auger.
* If the ice cubes become frozeri to
each other and around the ice auger,
* If the ice cubes become frozen
together on the back ledge of the ice
bin,. Periodic cleaning of the Ice bin
may alleviate this occurrence. Clean
with warm water and dry before
replacing bin. Do not use an ice pick
to break apart ice.

trol arm on the automatic ice maker has
