IMPORTANT
Your ice maker is shipped from the factory with the 
wire signal arm in the ON position (side mounted) or 
with the switch turned ON (rear mounted). 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 (side mounted) or turn the On/Off switch to 
the Off (0) position (rear mounted). If the ice maker is 
not turned off and the water supply is not connected, 
the water valve will make a loud chattering noise..
AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER
Priming the Water Supply System
Your refrigerator’s water supply system includes several 
tubing lines, an advanced water filter, a distribution valve
bank, and a reserve tank to ensure ample supply to the 
ice and water dispenser at all times. This system needs 
to be completely filled with water when first connected to
an external supply line. 
To prime the water supply system:
  1  Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a
drinking glass against the water dispenser paddle.
  2  Keep the glass in this position until water comes 
out of the dispenser. It may take about 1½ 
minutes.
  3  Continue dispensing water for about three minutes 
to flush the system and plumbing connections of
any impurities (stopping to empty the glass as 
necessary).
Ice Maker Operation & Care
The ice maker, ice bin, and dispenser feeding mechanism 
are located in the top of the freezer compartment. After 
the refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled for 
several hours, the ice maker can produce ice within 24 
hours. It can completely fill an ice bin in about two days.
Using the Ice Maker after Installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the
water supply system. Air in new plumbing lines can result 
in two or three empty ice maker cycles. Furthermore, 
if the system is not flushed, the first ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor.

Turning the SIDE MOUNTED Ice Maker  
On and Off
To begin ice production, lower the wire signal arm to 
the DOWN or ON position. The ice maker turns off 
automatically when the ice container becomes full. To 
stop the ice maker, raise the wire signal arm until it clicks 
and locks in the UP or OFF position.
Turning the REAR MOUNTED Ice Maker 
On and Off
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker’s ON/OFF 
power switch. To gain access to the ice maker, pull the 
ice cream shelf out. Press the switch to the “O” position 
to turn it Off and press it to the “I” position to turn it On. 
The ice maker also has a built-in wire signal arm, which 
automatically stops ice production when the ice bin is 
full. DO NOT use this signal arm to manually stop the ice 
maker.
NOTE
The water dispenser has a built-in device that shuts 
off the water flow after three minutes of continuous
use. To reset this shutoff device, simply release the 
dispenser paddle. 
CAUTION
For proper dispenser operation, recommended water 
supply pressure should fall between 30 psi and 100 
psi. Excessive pressure may cause water filter to
malfunction.
