Automatic ice
Ice maker operation & care
After the refrigerator is installed properly, the ice maker
can produce ice within 24 hours, it can completely fill an
ice bin in about three (3) days.
When using the ice maker for the first time and in order
for the ice maker to work properly, it is necessary to
clear air from water filter tubing. Once ice maker begins
making ice, allow the bucket to fill completely, then
discard the first TWO (2) FULL buckets of ice. It will
take at least two (2) days to completely fill the bucket on
regular ice making mode or 1 1/2days on fast ice mode.
The ice maker produces approximately four (4) pounds
of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.
The following sounds are normal when the ice
maker is operating:
- Motor running
- Ice dropping into ice bin
- Water valve opening or closing
- Running water
Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd
flavor. Empty the ice bin as explained below.
Fast Ice Function
Your refrigerator is equipped with a "Smart" Fast ice
Function, that will, if activated at your user interface,
allow an increase in ice production. You do not need to
deactivate it, if not needed, your refrigerator will operate
on normal conditions.
