Automatic Icemaker
The icemaker will produce seven cubes
per cycle—approximately 100–130 cubes
in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer
compartment temperature, room
temperature, number of door openings
and other use conditions.
For Non-LCD Models: If the refrigerator
is operated before the water connection
is made to the icemaker, press and release
the ICE OFF/LOCK pad on the control panel
to disengage the icemaker.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, press and release
the ICE OFF/LOCK pad on the control
panel to engage the icemaker.
For LCD Models: If the refrigerator is
operated before the water connection is
made to the icemaker, see ICEMAKER under
the Screen Functions of LCD Operations
section and follow the screen commands
to turn the icemaker OFF.
A newly installed refrigerator may take
12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes.
You will hear a buzzing sound each time
the icemaker fills with water.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to
allow the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep
of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler
arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined
together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average
water pressure, you may hear the icemaker
cycle multiple times when making one batch
of ice.
NOTE: If the water supply is shut off,
press and release the ICE OFF/LOCK pad
on the control panel of the non-LCD model.
For the LCD model, see ICEMAKER under
the Screen Functions of LCD Operations
section and follow the screen commands
to turn the icemaker OFF.
A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
