Removing and Replacing the Storage Bin
1. Hold the base of the storage bin with both hands and press
the release button to lift the storage bin up and out.
NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the
OFF (right) position when removing the storage bin. The
sensor cover ("flipper door") on the left wall of the freezer
stops the ice maker from producing ice if the door is open or
the storage bin is removed.
2. Replace the storage bin on the door and push down to make
sure it is securely in place.
Cleaning the Storage Bin
WARNING
Cut Hazard
Plastic impeller blades cover a sharp ice shaving blade.
Keep fingers away from ice shaving blade.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.
For best performance, clean the storage bin on a regular basis,
especially after periods of little or no use.
NOTE: There are two dispensing mechanisms in the bottom of
the ice storage bin. In the door handle-side of the bin is an auger
(metal spiral) that is part of the mechanism that converts ice
cubes to crushed ice. In the hinge-side of the bin is a plastic
impeller that is part of the mechanism that converts ice cubes to
shaved ice.
1. Empty the ice container. Use warm water to melt the ice if
necessary.
NOTE: Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the
bin. This can damage the ice bin and the dispensing
mechanisms.
2. Wash ice bin with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry
thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Remember
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 3 days
to completely fill ice container.
Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid
impurities that may be flushed out of the system.

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.
It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners.
They will break apart easily.
Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the
storage bin.

REFRIGERATOR FEATURES

Your model may have some or all of these features. Features that
can be purchased separately as product accessories are labeled
with the word "Accessory." Not all accessories will fit all models.
If you are interested in purchasing one of the accessories, please
call the toll-free number on the back cover or in the
"Accessories" section.
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.

Refrigerator Shelves

Your model may have glass or wire shelves. Store similar foods
together and adjust the shelves to fit different heights. This
reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and saves energy.
Slide-Out Shelves (on some models)
To Remove and Replace a Shelf in a Metal Frame:
1. Pull the shelf forward to the stop. Tilt the front of the shelf up
and lift it slightly as you pull the shelf from the frame.
2. Replace the shelf by guiding it back into the slots on the
frame and pushing the shelf in past the stop.
