Ice Maker
(on some models)
To Turn the Ice Maker On/Off
NOTE: Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
■ To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is
made, the ice cubes fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes
will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position.
■ To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shutoff arm to
the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure
the ice maker will not continue to operate.
Ice Production Rate
The ice maker should produce approximately 7 to 9 batches of ice
in a 24-hour period. If ice is not being made fast enough, turn the
Temperature Control toward a higher (colder) number in half
number steps. (For example, if the control is at 3, move it to
between 3 and 4.) Wait 24 hours and, if necessary, gradually turn
the Temperature Control to the highest setting, waiting 24 hours
between each increase.
Remember
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
■ 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.
■ Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin.
FREEZER FEATURES
This manual covers several different models. The freezer you have
purchased may have some or all of the items listed. The locations
of the features may not match those of your model.
Freezer Shelves
Store similar foods together and adjust the shelves to fit different
heights. This reduces the time the freezer door is open and saves
energy.
To remove and replace a shelf:
1. Remove the shelf by pulling it forward slightly to align the shelf
stops with the openings in the freezer liner. Lift straight up,
and pull the shelf out the rest of the way.
2. Replace the shelf by lowering the shelf stops through the
openings in the freezer liner. Slide the shelf in the rest of the
way.
Door Bin
To remove and replace the bin:
1. Remove the bin by tipping the front of the bin forward and
sliding out.
2. Replace the bin by sliding it in above the desired support
tilting it back into place.
Storage Basket
(on some models)
The slide out basket provides separate storage space for items
that are difficult to store on freezer shelves. To remove the basket,
pull out and lift up.
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.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
