If your freezer has an automatic icemaker, it will 

provide a sufficient supply of ice for normal use. 

During the initial startup of your freezer, however, 

no ice will be produced during the first 24 hours 

of operation.
Automatic ice makers are also optional 

accessories that may be installed in some models 

at any time. Call your local dealer for information.

After the plumbing connections have been 

completed, the water supply valve must be 

opened. Place the ice container under the 

ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. 

Lower the wire signal arm to its “down” or 

ON position. New plumbing connections may 

cause the first production of ice cubes to be 

discolored or have an odd flavor. These first 

cubes should be discarded until the cubes 

produced are free of discoloration and taste.

To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal 

arm until it clicks and locks in the “up” or 

OFF position. The ice maker also turns off 

automatically when the ice container is full. 

If your model has an adjustable freezer shelf, 

place the shelf in the lower position, so that 

the wire signal arm will hit the ice when the 

container is full.

•  If the ice maker will be turned off for a 

long period of time, turn the water supply 

valve to the closed position.

•  Ice cubes stored too long may develop an 

odd flavor. Empty the ice container and 

ensure that the wire signal arm is in its 

“down” or ON position. The ice maker will 

then produce more ice.

•  Occasionally shake the ice container to 

keep ice separated.

•  Keep the wire signal arm in its “up” or 

OFF position until the freezer is connected 

to the water supply or whenever the 

water supply is turned off.

•  The following sounds are normal when the 

ice maker is operating:

 

• Motor running

 

• Ice loosening from tray

 

• Ice dropping into ice container

 

• Running water

 

• Water valve opening or closing

Your ice maker is shipped with the wire 

signal arm in the ON position. To ensure 

proper function of your ice maker, hook up 

water supply immediately or turn ice maker 

OFF by lifting the wire signal arm until it 

clicks and locks in the UP position.
Check the leveling bracket on the ice maker 

to ensure the ice maker is level. If the gap 

between the freezer wall and the ice maker 

is the same at top and bottom, then ice 

maker is level. If the ice maker is not level, 

loosen the screw and slide the bracket 

to the correct position to make it level. 

Retighten the screw. You will need a ¼ inch 

socket wrench for this task.

•  DO NOT place the ice container in dish-

washer.

•  Wash the ice container in warm water 

with mild detergent. Rinse well and dry.

•  Stop the ice maker when cleaning the 

freezer and during vacations.
