CHANGING THE BIN DOOR PANEL
You can easily change the color of the front panel
on the storage bin door. Four colors are available;
Black, Almond, Harvest Gold and White.
To change the panel:
1. Ooen the bin door. Remove the two screws on
top of the door, which hold the handle.
2. Remove the handle.
3. Carefully slide the panels out. You will find two
panels with four colors.
4. Choose the color you want to show and carefully
slide the panels back into the door, being careful
not to scratch the panel as it's inserted.
5. Replace the handle and screws.
Note: A brushed chrome door panel is available
that you can order from your dealer as part No.
755340.
You can also have a decorative wood front to
match existing cabinets. The panel should be 1/4"
(6 mm) thick and 17" x 13-3/16" (433 mm x
335 mm). Remove the metal panels and break off
the ribs on the door insulation to allow for wood
thickness.
FILTERING AND TREATING WATER
In !T ost areas it will be beneficial to filter or treat
tile vvater being supplied to the ice machine. It can
improve the reliability of the machine, reduce
water system maintenance and produce the best
quality of ice.
The installation of a polyphosphate feeder will
generally reduce scale build-up and the ice machine
will 'equire less frequent cleaning.
Municipal water systems are generally treated with
chlorine to maintain a safe potable water supply.
Activated
carbon filters will sufficiently remove
the residual chlorine from the water to reduce
surface staining of stainless steel materials in the
ice machine.
For information on filtering and treating the water,
see the dealer from whom you purchased your ice
maker or your WHIRLPOOL Franchised TECH-
CARE® service company.
