ice per day under normal operation.
■ To increase ice production, select the increased ice
production feature from the Settings or Options menu on the

Ice Maker
The ice maker is located on the left-hand side of the refrigerator
compartment ceiling. Ice cubes are ejected into the ice storage
bin, located on the left-hand refrigerator door.
Turn the Ice Maker On/Off
1. Push up on the latch on the left-hand side of the ice
compartment to open the door.
2. Turn on the ice maker by moving the switch to the (left) ON
position.
NOTES:
■ To manually turn off the ice maker, move the control to the
OFF (right) position.
■ Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The sensor will
automatically stop ice production if the storage bin is full,
if the door is open or the storage bin is removed. The
control will remain in the ON (left) position.
3. Close the ice compartment door.
Remove and Replace the Ice Storage Bin
■ Remove the ice storage bin by inserting your fingers into the
hole at the base of the bin and squeezing the latch to release
