ICE AND WATER
Automatic Ice Maker
Connect the ice maker to the water supply as
instructed on page 9. Proper water flow and a level
refrigerator are essential for optimal ice maker performance.
Operating Instructions
Confirm ice bin is in place and ice maker arm is down.
After freezer section reaches
between 0° to 2° F (-18° to -17 ° C), ice maker fills with water and
begins operating. You will have a
complete harvest of ice approximately every three
hours.
Allow approximately 24 hours after installation to receive first harvest of ice.
Discard ice created within first 12 hours of operation
to assure system is flushed of impurities.
Turn off (arm up) the ice maker when the water supply is to be shut off for several hours.
To Remove the Ice Bin:
Pull it forward, away from the ice maker. To avoid the
ice maker dumping ice while the bin is removed, turn
the ice maker off by raising the icemaker arm.
To Install the Ice Bin:
Reverse the above procedure. Turn the ice maker on
by lowering the ice maker arm.
Stop ice production by raising ice maker arm until click is heard.
Ice maker will remain in the off position until arm is pushed down.
The first one or two batches will probably contain
undersized and irregular cubes because of air in the
supply line. When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for
several cubes to be joined together at the ends. They can easily be broken apart. The ice maker will continue to make ice until the supply of ice cubes
raises the ice maker arm, shutting the ice maker off.
Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of the ice maker. The motor may have a slight hum, the
cubes will rattle as they fall into an empty storage
pan and the water valve may click or "buzz"
occasionally.
If the ice is not used frequently, the ice cubes will become cloudy, shrink, stick together and taste stale.
Empty the ice storage bin periodically and wash it in lukewarm water. Be sure to dry the bin thoroughly before replacing it.
Water Dispenser
The Water Dispenser is located on the left side wall of the fresh food
section. This design is for cold water dispensing only.
Beverages and foods should not be placed in the ice
storage bin for quick chilling. These items can block the ice maker arm, causing the ice maker to
malfunction.
To Dispense Water:
Hold container under spout and
press dispenser pad.

FOOD STORAGE TIPS
Fresh Food Storage
The fresh food compartment of a refrigerator should be kept between 340-40 ° F (1°-4 ° C) with an
optimum temperature of 37° F (3° C). To check the temperature, place an appliance thermometer in a
glass of water and place in the center of the
refrigerator. Check after 24 hours. If the temperature is above 40 ° F (4° C) adjust the controls as explained
on pages 10-12.
Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This reduces the circulation of air around the food and
results in uneven cooling.
Fruits and Vegetables
Storage in the crisper drawers traps humidity to help preserve the fruit and vegetable quality for longer
time periods (see page 14).
Sort fruits and vegetables before storage and use bruised or soft items first. Discard those showing
signs of decay.
Always wrap odorous foods such as onions and
cabbage so the odor does not transfer to other foods.
Frozen Food Storage
The freezer compartment of a refrigerator should be kept at approximately 0° F (-18 ° C). To check the
temperature, place an appliance thermometer
between the frozen packages and check after 24 hours. If the temperature is above 0° F (-18 ° C),
adjust the control as described on pages 10-12.
A freezer operates more efficiently when it is at least
two-thirds full.
Packaging Foods for Freezing
To minimize dehydration and quality deterioration use
aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags or airtight containers. Force as much air out of the packages as
possible and be sure they are tightly sealed. Trapped
air can cause the food to dry out, change color and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn).
Overwrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable
freezer wrap prior to freezing.
Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed.
Loading the Freezer
While vegetables need a certain amount of humidity to remain fresh, too much humidity can shorten storage times (especially leafy vegetables). Drain vegetables well before storing.
Wait to wash fresh produce until right before use.
Meat and Cheese
Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely so leakage and contamination of other foods or
surfaces does not occur. Occasionally mold will develop on the surface of
hard cheeses (Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan). Cut off at least an inch around and below the moldy area. Keep
your knife or instrument out of the mold itself. Do not try to save individual cheese slices, soft cheese, cottage cheese, cream, sour cream or yogurt when
mold appears.
Dairy Food
Most dairy foods such as milk, yogurt, sour cream and cottage cheese have freshness dates on their
cartons for appropriate length of storage. Store these foods in the original carton and refrigerate
immediately after purchasing and after each use.
Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at one time. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of freezing and can raise the temperature of frozen
foods.
Leave space between the packages so cold air can circulate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly as
possible.
Avoid storing hard-to-freeze foods such as ice cream and orange juice on the freezer door shelves. These
foods are best stored in the freezer interior where the temperature varies less with door openings.
Refer to the Food Storage Chart on pages 21 and 22 for
approximate storage times.

Energy Saving Tips
Avoid overcrowding refrigerator shelves. Overcrowding reduces air circulation around food and causes refrigerator to run longer.
Avoid adding too much warm food to refrigerator at one time. This overloads compartments and slows
rate of cooling.
Do not use aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling as shelf liners. This decreases air flow and
causes refrigerator to run less efficiently.
A freezer that is two-thirds full runs most efficiently.
Locate refrigerator in coolest part of room. Avoid
areas of direct sunlight, or near heating ducts,
registers or other heat producing appliances. If this is not possible, isolate exterior by using a section of
cabinet or an added layer of insulation.
Clean door gaskets every three months according to cleaning instructions. This will assure that door seals
properly and refrigerator runs efficiently.
Take time to organize items in refrigerator to reduce time that door is open.
Be sure your doors are closing securely by leveling
refrigerator as instructed in your installation instructions.
Clean condenser coils as indicated in the cleaning
instructions every three months. This will increase
energy efficiency and cooling performance.
1. Remove drawers and place on top shelf of refrigerator.
2. Pack refrigerator and freezer sections - including
doors - with crumpled sheets of black and white
newspaper.
3. Place charcoal briquettes randomly on crumpled newspaper in both freezer and refrigerator
compartments.
4. Close doors and let stand 24 to 48 hours.

OPERATING SOUNDS
Improvements in refrigeration design may produce sounds in your new refrigerator that are different or were not present in an older model These improvements were made to create a refrigerator that is better at preserving food,
is more energy efficient, and is quieter overall Because new refrigerators run quieter, sounds may be detected that
were present in older refrigerators, but were masked by higher sound levels Many of these sounds are normal
Please note that the surfaces adjacent to a refrigerator, such as hard walls, floors and cabinetry may make these
sounds seem even louder The following are some of the normal sounds that may be noticed in a new refrigerator
Clicking Freezer control (A) clicks when starting or
