IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

For Your Safety

Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic

icemaking

mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in. This will help protect you from possible injury.

It will also prevent interference with moving parts of the ejector mechanism

and

the heating element

that releases the cubes.

SAW

THESE INSTRUCTIONS

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.

Ice Storage Bin

How to Use Your Icemaker

1.2.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, below the icemaker.

When the icemaker is first connected you should discard the first few batches of cubes.

operation by ejecting ready-and-waiting frozen cubes.

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.

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.

Keep ice level to keep it coming.

Notes about the icemaker

● You may, on occasion, find a few smaller than

The old valve will not allow enough water through to fill the icemaker properly and can cause damage.

The fill tube extension needs to be a different length than the original tube for proper water flow. Cut the tube to the length indicated for your model of refrigerator.

Water Line Installation Instruction

CAUTION:

●

you use your refrigerator before connecting

the water line, make sure the icemaker feeler

arm

kept m the STOP (up) position.

Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas

where temperatures fall below freezing.

When using any electrical device (such as a

power drill) during installation, be sure the

device is insulated or wired in a manner to prevent the hazard of electric shock.

● All installations must be in accordance with

local plumbing code requirements.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

cold

water supply is required for automatic

icemaker operation. The water pressure must be between 20 and 120

●

Power drill,

● Copper tubing, 1/4” (6 mm) 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 8 feet (244 cm). Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about 8 feet

[244 cm] coiled into 3 turns of about 10 inches

[25 cm] 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”

(4 mm) 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.

● Two 1/4” (6 mm) outer diameter compression

nuts and 2 ferrules (sleeves) – to connect the copper tubing to the shutoff valve and the refrigerator water valve.

● If your existing water line has a flared fitting at

the end, you will need an adapter (available at plumbing supply stores) to connect the water line to the refrigerator OR - you can cut off the flared fitting with a tube cutter and then use a compression fitting.
