Removing and Replacing the Storage Bin
1. Hold the base of the storage bin with both hands and press
the release button to lift the storage bin up and out.
NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the
OFF position when removing the storage bin. The sensor
cover (“flipper door”) on the left wall of the freezer stops the
ice maker from producing ice if the door is open or the
storage bin is removed.
2. Replace the storage bin on the door and push down to make
sure it is securely in place.
Cleaning the Storage Bin
1. Empty the storage bin. Use warm water to melt the ice if
necessary.
NOTE: Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the
storage bin. This can cause damage to the storage bin and
the dispenser mechanism.
2. Wash the storage bin with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry
thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cieaners or solvents.
Remember
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 3 days
to completely fill ice container.
■ Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid
impurities that may be flushed out of the system.
■ The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of
the water supplied to your ice maker.
■ Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply.
Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of
the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water
supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is
operating properly and is well maintained.
■ It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners.
They will break apart easily.
■ Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the
storage bin.
REFRIGERATOR FEATURES
Your model may have some or all of these features. Features that
can be purchased separately as product accessories are labeled
with the word “Accessory.” Not all accessories will fit all models.
If you are interested in purchasing one of the accessories, please
call the toll-free number on the back cover or in the
“Accessories” section.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter
into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass
shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when
removing them to avoid impact from dropping.
Your model may have glass or wire shelves. Store similar foods
together and adjust the shelves to fit different heights. This
reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and saves energy.
Slide-Out Shelves (on some models)
To Remove and Replace a Shelf in a Metal Frame:
1. Pull the shelf forward to the stop. Tilt the front of the shelf up
and lift it slightly as you pull the shelf from the frame.
2. Replace the shelf by guiding it back into the slots on the
frame and pushing the shelf in past the stop.
Shelves and Shelf Frames
To Remove and Replace a Shelf/Frame:
1. Remove the shelf/frame by tilting it up at the front and lifting it
out of the shelf supports.
2. Replace the shelf/frame by guiding the rear shelf hooks into
the shelf supports. Tilt the front of the shelf up until rear shelf
hooks drop into the shelf supports. Check to make sure that
the shelf is securely in position.
