Automatic Icemaker

In-Door Icemaker
Power Switch
Ice-detecting Sensor
NOTE
• Ice is made in the automatic in-door icemaker and
sent to the dispenser. The icemaker produces
70 - 182 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending
on freezer compartment temperature, room
temperature, number of door openings and other
operating conditions.
• It takes about 12 to 24 hours for a newly installed
refrigerator to begin making ice.
• Ice-making stops when the in-door ice bin is full.
When full, the in-door ice bin holds approximately 6
to 8 (12-16 oz.) glasses of ice.
• Foreign substances or frost on the ice-detecting
sensor can interrupt ice production. Make sure
the sensor area is clean at all times for proper
operation.
• To increase ice production, use the Ice Plus
function. The function increases both ice making
and freezing capabilities.
WARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
• DO NOT place fingers or hands on the automatic
ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is
plugged in.
CAUTION
Never store beverage cans or other items in
the ice bin for the purpose of rapid cooling.
Doing so may damage the icemaker or the
containers may burst.
• To avoid personal injury, keep hands out of the
ice door and passage.

NOTE
• The automatic freezer icemaker produces 12 cubes
at a time, 50-110 pieces within a 24 hour period
if conditions are favorable. This amount may vary
according to the environment (ambient temperature
around the appliance, frequency of the door being
opened, amount of food stored in the appliance,
etc.).
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice
production will stop.
• Sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.
• The icemaker produces ice once approximately 48
hours have passed after the appliance is initially
installed.
• Discard the first ice cubes produced after initial
install.
• Ice cubes which are stored in the ice bin for a
long time may clump together and be difficult
to separate. If this happens, empty the ice bin
completely and clean it before reinstalling it.
