Operating Instructions

• Confirm ice bin is in place and ice maker arm is down.

• After freezer section reaches between 0° to 2° F (-17° to -16° C), ice maker fills with water and begins operating. Y 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.

• 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 cube supply line.

• When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for several cubes to be joined together at the ends. They

• 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”

• 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.

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 sensor arm.

WARNING

To avoid personal injury or pr observe the following:

• Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic

ice making 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.

• Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may be discolored, usually appearing with a greenbluish hue. The cause of this unusual discoloration can be a combination of factors such as cer characteristics of local waters, household plumbing and the accumulation of copper salts in an inactive water supply line which feeds the ice maker. Continued consumption of such discolored ice cubes may be injurious to health. If such discoloration is observed, disc and contact your dealer to purchase and install a water line filter.

• Water damage due to improper water connection may cause mold/mildew growth.

• Clean up water and ice spills to avoid personal injury and to prevent mold/mildew growth.

Food Storage Tips

Fresh Food Storage

• The fresh food compartment of a refrigerator should be kept between 34°-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 page 12.

• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This reduces the circulation of air around the food and results in uneven cooling.

Fruits and Vegetables

• The crisper drawers trap humidity to help preserve the fruit and vegetable quality for longer time periods (see page 14).

• Sort fruits and vegetables 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.

before storage and use

Frozen Food Storage

• The freezer compartment of a refrigerator should be kept at approximately 0° F (-17° 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 (-17° C), adjust the control as described on page 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 shor storage times (especially leafy vegetables). Drain

• 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 approximate storage times.

1. Remove all food and turn the refrigerator OFF.

2. Disconnect power to the refrigerator.

3. Clean the walls, floor, ceiling of cabinet interior, drawers, shelves and gaskets according to the instructions on page 20.

4. Dilute mild detergent and brush solution into crevices using a plastic bristle brush. Let st 5 minute surfaces with a soft, clean cloth.

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.

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.
