Automatic Ice Maker
(continued)
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the "up" or
OFF position. The ice maker turns off automatically when the ice container is full. If your
model has an adjustable freezer shelf, place the shelf so the wire signal arm will hit the
ice when the ice container is full.
Ice maker tips
1. Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor. Empty the container and
be sure the wire signal arm is in its "down" or ON position. The Ice Maker will
then produce more ice.
2. Occasionally shake the container to keep ice separated.
3. Keep the wire signal arm in its "up" or OFF position until the refrigerator is
connected to the water supply or whenever the water supply is turned off.
4. Certain sounds are normal when the Ice Maker is operating. They are:
• Motor operation
• Ice being loosened from the tray
• Ice dropping into the storage bin
• Running water
• Water valve opening or closing
For more information on these operations, see Normal Operating Sounds.
5. Wash ice container in warm water with mild detergent. Rinse well and dry.
6. Stop the Ice Maker when cleaning the freezer or for short vacations.
7. If the Ice Maker is to be turned off for a long period of time, turn the water
supply valve to the closed position.
