Automatic Ice & Water Dispenser

Cleaning The Ice Dispenser

Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals, particularly
before you take a vacation or move.

To clean the ice dispenser:

1 Turn off ice production by pressing the ice maker’s Off/On switch.
2 Remove the ice bin by lifting up and out.
3 Empty and carefully clean the ice bin with mild detergent. Rinse with clear

water. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.

4 Allow the ice bin to dry completely before replacing in the freezer.
5 Remove ice chips and clean the ice bin shelf and the freezer door chute.
6 Replace the ice bin. Press the ice maker’s Off/On switch to resume ice

production.

Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:

• An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice

storage bin to melt and freeze together, jamming the dispenser mechanism.

• You do not use the ice dispenser frequently. Ice cubes will freeze together

in the bin, jamming the dispenser mechanism.

Remove the ice storage bin and shake to loosen the cubes or clean as explained
above. Never use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to break up the ice. This
could damage the ice storage bin and dispenser mechanism.

When removing the ice bin, avoid rotating the auger inside the bin. The
auger must align with its drive mechanism when the bin is replaced. If
you accidentally move the auger, realign by making quarter turns until the
ice bin fits back in place.
