Automatic Icemaker

(on some models)

The icemaker will produce eight cubes per

cycle—approximately 120 cubes in a 24-hour

period, depending on freezer compartment

temperature, room temperature, number

of door openings and other use conditions.
If the refrigerator is operated before the

water connection is made to the icemaker,

keep the feeler arm in the STOP (up)

position.
When the refrigerator has been connected

to the water supply, move the feeler arm to

the ON (down) position.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools

to freezing. A newly-installed refrigerator may

take 8 to 12 hours to begin making ice cubes.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to

allow the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the swing of

the feeler arm.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined

together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes

will become cloudy and taste stale.

Drawer Removal

Drawers can easily be removed by tilting up

slightly and pulling past stop location.

On some models you may need to remove the
door bins from the fresh food door before
removing the drawers.

If the door prevents you from taking out

the drawers, the refrigerator will need to

be rolled forward until the door opens

enough to slide the drawers out. In some

cases when you roll the refrigerator out you

will need to move the refrigerator to the left

as you roll it out.

When replacing the drawers, make
sure you slide them through the
drawer guides on the left side.

Raise the access door to reach the
icemaker bin.

Icemaker Accessory Kit

If your refrigerator did not come already
equipped with an automatic icemaker,
an icemaker accessory kit is available at
extra cost.

Check the back of the refrigerator for

the specific icemaker kit needed for

your model.
