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.

When removing or replacing the ice bin, DO NOT 

rotate the auger in the ice bin. If the auger is 

accidentally rotated, you must realign the auger by 

turning it in 90 degree turns (see below) until the ice 

bin fits into place with the drive mechanism. If the 

auger is not properly aligned when replacing the ice 

bin, the refrigerator will produce no ice. The fresh food 

door also may not close properly causing warm air to 

leak into the fresh food compartment. 

 •  If your refrigerator is not connected to a water

supply or the water supply is turned off, turn off 

the ice maker by holding the On/Off soft-touch 

icon and the water shut-off valve for three (3) 

seconds. 

 •  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

 •  When dispensing ice, you will hear a snapping

or clicking sound when the ice chute opens and 

closes.

 •  If you need a large quantity of ice at one time, it is

best to get cubes directly from the ice bin.

 •  Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd

flavor. Empty the ice bin as explained below.

 •  When dispensing cubed ice, it is normal to have a

small quantity of little pieces along with the whole 

cubes.

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 

by pulling straight 

out. 

  3  Empty and carefully 

clean the ice bin 

with mild detergent. 

Do not use harsh or 

abrasive cleaners.  

Rinse with clear 

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, 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 bin and shake to loosen the cubes or 

clean as explained above.
