Automatic Ice & Water Dispenser
Using The Ice Dispenser After Installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the water supply system as
described earlier. Air in new plumbing lines can result in two or three empty ice
maker cycles. Furthermore, if the system is not flushed, the first ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor.
Turning The Ice Dispenser On And Off
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker’s On/Off
power switch.
To access the On/Off power switch, slide ice
cream shelf straight out. Press the switch to the “O” position
to turn it Off and press to the “I” position to turn it On.
Ice Dispenser Tips
• Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor.
Empty the ice container as explained on the next
page.
• Occasionally shake the ice container to keep ice separated.
• If your refrigerator is not connected to a water supply or the water supply is
turned off, turn off the ice maker by pressing the On/Off switch.
• If you need a large quantity of ice at one time, it is best to get cubes directly
from the ice container.
• The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating:
• Motor running
• Ice dropping into ice container
• Water valve opening or closing
• Ice loosening from tray
• Running water
• Turn off the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and during vacations.
• If you turn off the ice maker for a long period of time, you should also turn off
the water supply valve.

The ice maker also has a built-in wire signal arm, which
automatically stops ice production when the ice bin is full. This
signal arm should not be used to manually stop the ice maker.
