CAUTION
Do not place fingers or hands in the automatic
icemaking mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged
in. This will help protect you from possible injury.
The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle—
approximately 70-100 cubes in a 24-hour period,
depending on freezer compartment temperature, room
temperature, number of door openings and other use
conditions.
If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection
is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to OFF.
When the refrigerator has been connected to the water
supply, set the power switch to ON.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to freezing.
A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to
begin making ice cubes.

Preparing for Vacation

Set the icemaker power switch to OFF and shut off the
water supply to the refrigerator.
If the temperature can drop below freezing, have a
qualified servicer drain the water supply system (on
some models) to prevent serious property damage due
to flooding.
