Automatic Ice & Water Dispenser
ICE DISPENSER 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 Dispenser After Installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the water supply system as
described on page 22. 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 Ice Dispenser On And Off
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker’s On/Off
power switch. Press the switch to the “O” position to turn it
Off and press to the “I” position to turn it On.

The 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, turn the ice maker’s On/Off switch to Off.
Otherwise, the ice maker’s fill valve may be noisy when it attempts to operate without water.

The ice maker also has a built-in wire signal arm, which
automatically stops ice production when the ice bin is full. This
signal arm should not be used to manually stop the ice maker.
