Automatic Ice Maker

Note: Energy rating guides that are posted on the

refrigerator at the time of purchase do not include

optional ice maker energy usage.

Some models are automatic ice maker ready. The

number of the appropriate ice maker kit is IC10S. The

kit contains installation instructions and water

connection instructions.

Other models have a factory installed ice maker.

Connect the ice maker to the water supply as

instructed on pages 5-6. Proper water flow and a

level refrigerator are essential for optimal ice

maker performance.

Operating Instructions

• Confirm ice bin is in place and ice maker arm is

down.

• After freezer section reaches

between 0° to 2° F (-18 ° to -17° C),

ice maker fills with water and

begins operating. You will have a

complete harvest of ice

approximately every three hours.

• Allow approximately 3-6 hours after installation to

receive first harvest of ice.

• Discard ice created within first 12 hours of operation

to verify system is flushed of impurities.

• Stop ice production by raising ice maker arm until

click is heard.

• Ice maker will remain in the OFF position until arm is

pushed down.

• The first one or two batches will probably contain

undersized and irregular cubes because of air in the

supply line.

• When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for

several cubes to be joined together at the ends. They

can easily be broken apart. The ice maker will

continue to make ice until the supply of ice cubes

raises the sensor arm, shutting the ice maker off.

• Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of

the ice maker. The motor may have a slight hum, the

cubes will rattle as they fall into an empty storage

pan and the water valve may click or "buzz"

occasionally.

If the ice is not used frequently, the ice cubes will

become cloudy, shrink, stick together and taste stale.

Empty the ice storage bin periodically and wash it in

lukewarm water. Be sure to dry the bin thoroughly

before replacing it.

Beverages and foods should not be placed in the

ice storage bin for quick chilling. These items can

block the sensor arm, causing the ice maker to

malfunction.

Turn OFF (arm up) the ice maker when the water

supply is to be shut off for several hours.

To Remove the Ice Bin:

• Pull it forward, away from the ice maker. To avoid the

ice maker dumping ice while the bin is removed, turn

the ice maker OFF by raising the sensor arm.

To Install the Ice Bin:

• Reverse the above procedure. Turn the ice maker ON

by lowering the sensor arm.

To avoid personal injury or property damage,

observe the following:

• Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic

ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is

plugged in. This will help protect you from possible

injury. It will also prevent interference with moving

parts of the ejector mechanism and the heating

element that releases the cubes.

• Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may

be discolored, usually appearing with a green-

bluish hue. The cause of this unusual discoloration

can be a combination of factors such as certain

characteristics of local waters, household

plumbing and the accumulation of copper salts in

an inactive water supply line which feeds the ice

maker. Continued consumption of such discolored

ice cubes may be injurious to health. If such

discoloration is observed, discard the ice cubes

and contact your dealer to purchase and install a

water line filter.

• Water damage due to improper water connection

may cause mold/mildew growth.

• Clean up water and ice spills to avoid personal

injury and to prevent mold/mildew growth.

FoodStorogeTips

Fresh Food Storage

• The fresh food compartment of a refrigerator should

be kept between 340-40 ° F (1°-4 ° C) with an

optimum temperature of 37° F (3° C). To check the

temperature, place an appliance thermometer in a

glass of water and place in the center of the

refrigerator. Check after 24 hours. If the temperature

is above 40° F (4° C) adjust the controls as explained

on page 7.

• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This

reduces the circulation of air around the food and

results in uneven cooling.

Fruits and Vegetables

Storage in the crisper drawers traps humidity to help

preserve the fruit and vegetable quality for longer

time periods.

Sort fruits and vegetables before storage and use

bruised or soft items first. Discard those showing

signs of decay.

• Always wrap odorous foods such as onions and

cabbage so the odor does not transfer to other foods.

While vegetables need a certain amount of humidity

to remain fresh, too much humidity can shorten

storage times (especially leafy vegetables). Drain

vegetables well before storing.

• Wait to wash fresh produce until right before use.

Meat and Cheese

Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely

so leakage and contamination of other foods or

surfaces does not occur.

Occasionally mold will develop on the surface of

hard cheeses (Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan). Cut off at

least an inch around and below the moldy area. Keep

your knife or instrument out of the mold itself. Do

not try to save individual cheese slices, soft cheese,

cottage cheese, cream, sour cream or yogurt when

mold appears.

Dairy Food

Most dairy foods such as milk, yogurt, sour cream

and cottage cheese have freshness dates on their

cartons for appropriate length of storage. Store these

foods in the original carton and refrigerate

immediately after purchasing and after each use.

Frozen Food Storage

• The freezer compartment of a refrigerator should be

kept at approximately 0° F (-17 ° C). To check the

temperature, place an appliance thermometer

between the frozen packages and check after 24

hours. If the temperature is above 0° F (-17 ° C),

adjust the control as described on page 7.

• A freezer operates more efficiently when it is at least

two-thirds full.

Packaging Foods for Freezing

To minimize dehydration and quality deterioration use

aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags or airtight

containers. Force as much air out of the packages as

possible and be sure they are tightly sealed. Trapped

air can cause the food to dry out, change color and

develop an off-flavor (freezer burn).

Overwrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable

freezer wrap before freezing.

• Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed.

Loading the Freezer

Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at

one time. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of

freezing and can raise the temperature of frozen

foods.

• Leave space between the packages so cold air can

circulate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly as

possible.

Avoid storing hard-to-freeze foods such as ice cream

and orange juice on the freezer door shelves. These

foods are best stored in the freezer interior where the

temperature varies less with door openings.

Refer to the Food Storage Chart for approximate

storage times, pages 17-18.
