Ice

ICE MAKER OPERATION

When the ice bucket is full, the ice making mechanism will shut off. However, the refrigeration system will continue to cool and maintain the ice supply.

NOTICE

Do not place cans or bottles in the ice compartment because they will freeze.

To turn off ice production:

Raise the bin arm into an upright and locked position. The unit will preserve temperature for ice storage.

NOTICE

If not intending to use the ice maker, turn the water supply valve off. It is also important to raise the bin arm of the ice maker (see above). Failure to raise the bin arm may result in damage to the water valve.

Certain sounds are normal during the unit’s operation. You may hear the compressor or fan motor, the water valve, or ice dropping into the ice bucket.

!

CAUTION

NEVER use an ice pick, knife or other sharp instrument to separate cubes. Shake the ice bucket instead.

During periods of limited use or high ambient temperatures, it is common for cubes to fuse together. Gently shake the bucket to break apart cubes. If not using the ice maker regularly, empty the ice bucket periodically to ensure fresh cubes.

It is normal for cubes to appear cloudy. The cause is air trapped in the water because of fast freezing. It is not caused by the health, taste or chemical make up of the water. It is the same air that is in every glass of water you drink.

Remove the ice bucket for emptying and cleaning. To remove the ice bucket, raise the bin arm and remove the bucket from the ice compartment. Use the ice bucket for ice storage only.
