KitchenAid KBLO36FTX Guía Del Usuario

The on/off switch for the ice maker is a wire shutoff arm located 
on the side of the ice maker. 

1. To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is 
made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice 
cubes will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) 
position.

2. To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shutoff arm to 

the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure 
the ice maker will not continue to operate.

■

In normal ice production, the ice maker should produce 
approximately 7 to 9 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If ice 
is not being made fast enough, turn the Freezer Control 
toward a higher (colder) number. Wait 24 hours between each 
increase.

1. Empty the ice bin. Use warm water to melt the ice if 

necessary. 

NOTE: Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the 
bin. 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.

■

Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice.

■

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.

■

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.

■

It may take 3 to 4 days for the ice bin to completely fill, if no 
ice is used. 

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. 

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. 

1. Slide the deli pan straight out to the stop. Lift the front of the 

pan with one hand while supporting the bottom of the pan 
with the other hand. Slide the deli pan out the rest of the way. 

2. To replace the deli pan, place the pan onto slides and push 

the deli pan back until securely in position.

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.
