Before Using the Freezer
Icemaker
NOTE
• The icemaker begins producing ice
approximately 48 hours after the appliance is
initially installed.
• Throw away the first few batches of ice after
installation.
• The sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is
normal.
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice
production will stop.
• The amount and shape of ice may vary according
to the environment (ambient temperature
around the appliance, frequency of the door
being opened, amount of food stored in the
appliance, water pressure, etc.).
• In the event of a power outage, throw away the
ice stored in the ice bin.
Freezer Icemaker (Craft Ice)
This feature is only available on some models.
Feeler Arm
a
CAUTION
• Do not insert round ice into the in-door ice bin,
as it can damage the ice and water dispenser.
NOTE
• The icemaker begins producing ice
approximately 48 hours after the appliance is
initially installed. The first batches of ice may not
be round and clear.
• Following installation or water filter
replacement, the first few batches of ice may be
semicircular or contain air bubbles.
• If the water pressure is less than 20 psi (138 kPa)
or a reverse osmosis system is used, the shape
of the ice may vary.
• The ice may look cloudy depending on the water
quality in the installation location and the
operating conditions.
• Throw away any shards of ice you may find in the
ice bin, as they may stick to the ice stored in the
ice bin.
• After a short term power outage, it will take
longer to make the first batch of ice, and the ice
may not be round. If the power will be out for a
longer period, throw away the ice stored in the
ice bin.
• The Craft Ice icemaker produces 1 batch of
round ice (3 pieces) at a time.
• In 3 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker produces
1 batch of round ice (3 pieces) about every 24
hours. In 6 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker
produces 2 batches of round ice (6 pieces total)
in the same period.
• For more ice, select the 6 ICE mode. For clearer
ice, select the 3 ICE mode.
• The time needed to make ice may vary according
to operating conditions.
• The ice bin stores 20 - 30 pieces of round ice.
Removing/Refitting the Ice
Storage Bin
The ice dispensing chute may become blocked with
frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost
that accumulates by removing the ice bin and
clearing the passage with a rubber spatula.
Dispensing cubed ice periodically can also help
prevent frost buildup.
