Fresh food features

The fresh food compartment is designed to keep your fresh food as fresh, chilled, heakhy, and
tasty as possible,

Fruit and vegetaHe storage

The fruit and vegetable storage bin provides an environment in which you control the humidity,

Fruit and vegetables stored in the normal refrigerator environment will lose moisture very

qukkly to the cold, dry air. This means they will shdvel and lose flavor very quickly. By
controlling the humidity in the bin, the air is kept moist, and fruit and vegetables retain

significantly more moisture. This keeps them more flavorsome, fresher and heakhier, for longer.

Fruit needs slightly lower humidity than vegetables, so the storage bin has an adjustable slide

with three settings,

Lower the wire arm inside the ice bin gently,

Once the freezer corn partment has reached O'_'F(--18_'C),the

ice maker will fill with water.

Approximately three to six hours after instalhtion the first

batch of ice will be produced.

After the initial ice batch is made, a complete batch will be

made every two to three hours.

Discard ice made in the first 12 hours of operation.

The ice maker will continue to make ice until the ice level

raises the wire arm, and stops production.

To stop ice production

Lift the wire arm inside the ice bin until aclick is heard.

The ice maker will not make or dispense ice until the arm is

lowered.

To remove the ice bin

Ice making information

The first two batches of ice may contain small or irregular cubes, due to air in the supply line

After cubes are made, it is normal for a few cubes to be ioined together, They can easily be

broken apart

If the ice is not used frequently the cubes may become cloudy, small, stick together, and

taste stale, Empty and wash the bin in lukewarm water periodically, Dry it thoroughly before

replacing it,

The ice maker may make a few sounds during its operation, Clicking, rattling, and buzzing are
all normal,

Do not store anything in the ice bin except ice made in the ice maker,

Mechanical Hazard
Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism

while the refrigerator is plugged inoThis will help protect you from possiMe

injury, _twill aBo prevent interference with moving parts of the ejector
mechanism and the heating e_ement that re_easesthe cubes,

Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may be discobred, usually

appearing with a green.oMuish hue, The cause of this unusual discoloration
can be acombination of factors such as certain characteristics of _oca_

waters, househoM plumbing and the accumulation of copper salts in
an inactive water supply line which feeds the ice maker, Continued
consumption of such discobred icecubes may be injurious to hea[tho_f

such discobration isobserved, discard the ice cubes and contact your

dealer to purchase and install a water _inefilter,
Water damage due to improper water connection may cause mold/mildew
