Automatic Icemaker

The icemaker will produce seven cubes
per cycle approximately 100–130 cubes
in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer
compartment temperature, room temperature,
number of door openings and other use
conditions .
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to
15°F (–10°C) . A newly installed refrigerator may
take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes .
If the refrigerator is operated before the water
line connection is made to the unit or if the
water supply to an operating refrigerator is
turned off, make sure that the icemaker is
turned off . Once the water has been connected
to the refrigerator, the icemaker may be turned
on . To turn the icemaker on or off, use the ICE
MAKER button on the control .
WARNING
To minimize the risk of personal injury, avoid contact with the moving parts of the ice
maker mechanism and with the heating element that releases the cubes . Do not place
fingers or hands on the ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in .
You may hear a buzzing sound each time the
icemaker fills with water .
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow
the water line to clear .
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the
feeler arm .
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm,
the icemaker will stop producing ice . It is normal
for several cubes to be joined together .
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale and shrink .
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle
multiple times when making one batch of ice .
