What To Do
• Turn on icemaker or water supply.
• Remove cubes and move the feeler arm to the
ON (down) position.
• Break up with fingertip pressure and discard
remaining clumps.
•Freezer may be too warm. Adjust the freezer control
to a colder setting, one position at a time, until
clumps do not form.
• Dispense 2 quarts (2 L) of water so that all water in system
is replenished.
•Install a water filter.
• Wait 24 hours for the refrigerator to completely
cool down.
•Dispense more water. It is normal for the first half-glass
of water to be warm because this water has been resting
in the tube between the chilling reservoir and the
dispenser.
• See Installing the water line.
•Press the dispenser pad for at least two minutes.
•Call for service.
•Call a plumber.
• Foods with strong odors should be tightly wrapped.
• Keep an open box of baking soda in the refrigerator;
replace every three months.
•See Care and cleaning.
•Wipe surface dry.
• Replace fuse or reset the breaker.
