Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can 

work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you 

cannot connect a water supply, lift the ice maker’s wire 

signal arm to turn it off. Otherwise, the ice maker’s 

fill valve may make a loud chattering noise when it

attempts to operate without water.

If the water supply to your refrigerator is softened, be 

sure the softener is properly maintained. Chemicals 

from a water softener can damage the ice maker.

NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to 

break up the ice. This could damage the ice bin and 

dispenser mechanism.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water. Before replacing 

the ice bin, make sure it is completely dry.

After the refrigerator is installed properly, the ice maker 

can produce ice within 24 hours. It can completely fill an

ice bin in about three days.
When using the ice maker for the first time and in order

for the ice maker to work properly, it is necessary to 

clear air from water filter tubing. Once ice maker begins

making ice, allow the bucket to fill completely, then

discard the first TWO FULL buckets of ice. It will take at

least two days to completely fill the bucket on regular ice

making mode or 1½ days on fast ice mode.
The ice maker produces approximately four pounds of ice 

every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.

Ice production is controlled by lifting/lowering the ice 

maker’s wire signal arm. To gain access to the ice 

maker, pull the freezer drawer out. Lift the wire signal 

arm to turn the ice maker OFF and lower the wire signal 

arm to turn it ON.

•  If your refrigerator is not connected to a water supply 

or the water supply is turned off, turn off the ice 

maker by lifting wire signal arm.

Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals, 

especially prior to vacation or moving.
  1  Turn off the ice maker.
  2  Remove the ice bin.
  3  Empty and carefully clean the ice bin with mild 

detergent. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. 

Rinse with clean water.

  4  Allow the ice bin to dry completely before replacing 

in the freezer.

  5  Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on.
Remove and empty the ice bin if:

•  An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes 

ice cubes in the ice bin to melt and freeze together.

Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen the cubes or 

clean as explained above.

•  The following sounds are normal when the ice maker 

is operating:

 

-  Motor running

 

-  Ice dropping into ice bin

 

-  Water valve opening or closing

 

-  Running water

•  Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor.

Empty the ice bin as explained below.

Your refrigerator is equipped with a Quick Ice Function, that 

increases ice production. This function terminates automatically.
