How the Icemaker Works
Water fills the empty cube mold when freezer compartment has cooled to freezing temperature. Cold air is forced directly over mold.
When frozen, the cubes are rotated up ~-----­and out of the mold. The sweeper arm ejects them into the ice storage bin below.
:

e
Ice Storage Bin
w
The feeler arm senses when bin is full and signals icemaker to stop ejecting more cubes. However, the mold has been refilled and cubes frozen so the new supply is ready when needed. As soon as ice is removed from the bin, the feeler arm signals that more is needed. Icemaker resumes operation by ejecting ready-and-waiting frozen cubes.
How to Use Your Icemaker
1. To start the icemaker, lower the feeler arm to the ON (down) position. Make sure the ice bin is at the rear of the freezer compartment,

Arm up stops operation
er will operate
below the icemaker.
2. When the icemaker is first connected you should discard the first few batches of cubes.
Notes about the icemaker
The icemaker ejects cubes in groups and it is normal
for several cubes to be joined together.
Ice cubes that have been in the ice storage bin for a
considerable length of time may pick up off-flavor tastes, stick together, and gradually become smaller. We suggest that these cubes be thrown away.
3. The feeler arm must be free to operate upward and outward over the top of the ice storage bin during each ice-delivery cycle. Make sure packages in the freezer compartment do not interfere with its movement.
4. The ice storage bin should be cleaned occasionally in warm water. Rinse and wipe dry. Be sure to raise the icemaker feeler arm to the STOP (up) position when cleaning the bin.

Copper tubing, 1/4” outer diameter to
connect the refrigerator to the water supply. Be sure both ends of the tubing are cut square.
To determine how much copper tubing you need: measure the distance from the water valve on the back of the refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Then add sufficient extra tubing (about 8 feet coiled into 3 turns of about 10 inches diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation. Do not use plastic tubing or plastic fittings because the water supply line is under pressure at all times. Also, certain types of plastic tubing may become brittle with age and crack, resulting in water leakage.
Shutoff valve to connect to the cold water
line. The shut-off valve should have a water inlet with a minimum inside diameter of 5/32” at the point of connection to the COLD WATER LINE. Saddle-type shut-off valves are included in many water supply kits. Before purchasing, make
sure a saddle-type valve complies with
your local plumbing codes.
