AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER - FREEZER
Operation & Care of the 
Freezer Ice Maker  
(select models)
After the refrigerator is installed properly, the ice 
maker can produce ice within 24 hours. It can 
completely fill the ice bin in about three (3) 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
(2) FULL buckets of ice.  It will take at least two 
(2) days to completely fill the bucket on regular ice
making mode or 1 
1
/
2
 days on fast ice mode.
The ice maker produces approximately four 2.5 
pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on  
usage conditions.  
Turning the ice maker on and off
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.
Ice maker tips
•  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.
Quick Ice Function
Your refrigerator is equipped with a Quick Ice
Function, that increases ice production.  This 
function terminates automatically.
Cleaning the ice maker 
IMPORTANT
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.

CAUTION
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.  
CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp 
instrument to break up the ice. This could 
damage the ice bin.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water.  
Before replacing the ice bin, make sure it is 
completely dry.
