Step Step

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Using the THIRSTCRUSHER* dispensing system

The ice dispenser

Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer. When you press the dispenser bar, a trapdoor opens in a chute between the dispenser and the ice bin. Ice moves from the bin and falls through the chute. When you release the dispenser bar, a buzzing sound may be heard for a few seconds as the trapdoor closes. The dis penser system will not operate when the freezer door is open.

For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size.

When changing from CRUSHED to CUBED, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

ÀWARNING

Cut Hazard

Use a sturdy giass when dispensing ice or water.

Faiiure to do so can resuit in cuts.

To dispense ice:

1. For cubed ice, move Ice Selector Switch

to CUBED position.

For crushed ice, move Ice Selector

Switch to CRUSHED position.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice

dispenser bar. Hold glass close to dispenser opening so ice does not fall outside of glass.

3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: The first few batches of ice may

have an off-flavor from new plumbing and parts. Throw the ice away. Also, take large amounts of ice from the ice bin, not through the dispenser.

Vh quarts (1.5 L).

When the refrigerator is first hooked up,

press the water dispenser bar with a glass or

jar until you draw and discard 2 or 3 quarts

(1.9 to 2.8 L). The water you draw and discard rinses the tank and pipes.

Allow several hours to chill a new tankful.

NOTE: The small tray beneath the dispenser

is designed to evaporate small spills. There is no drain in this tray. Do not pour water into it.

To dispense water:

1. Press a sturdy glass against the water

dispenser bar.

2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: Dispense enough water every week

to maintain a fresh supply.

Solving common ice dispenser problems

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

Ice dispenser will not work

Ice dispenser stops working

• Freezer door is open.

• Ice bin not properly installed. Make sure the bin is pushed in all the way.

• Wrong ice in bin. Only use crescents from the ice maker. Shake the bin occasionally to separate cubes and increase storage room.

• Dispenser not used for extended periods of time, causing ice cubes to melt together. Dump old ice and make a new supply.

• Ice dispenser bar held in too long. Wait about 3 minutes for dispenser motor to reset.

• Large amounts of ice should be taken from the bin, not through the dispenser.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Using the automatic ice maker

Here are a few things you will want to know about your automatic ice maker:

• The ON/OFF lever is a wire signal arm. DOWN to make ice automatically.

UP to shut off the ice maker.

NOTE: Do not turn ice maker on until it is

connected to the water supply. Instruc

tions for ice maker water supply hookup are attached to the back of the refrigerator cabinet.

• It is normal for ice crescents to be attached

by a corner. They break apart easily.

• The ice maker will not operate until the

freezer is cold enough to make ice. This can take overnight.

• If ice is not being made fast enough and

more ice is needed, turn the Refrigerator Control toward a higher number. Wait a day and, if necessary, turn the Freezer Control toward C.

• Good water quality is important for good ice quality. Try to avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt from a malfunctioning softener) can damage the ice maker mold and lead to poor ice quality. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well maintained.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Attaching the ice maker to a water supply

Read all directions carefully before you begin.

Cold water supply

AWARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Unplug the refrigerator before installing ice maker.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT:

• Use copper tubing only and check for leaks.

• Install ice maker tubing in areas where temperatures are above freezing.

Tools required:

• Standard screwdriver

• yi6-inch and y2-inch open-end wrenches or 2 adjustable wrenches

• V4-inch nut driver

• V4-inch drill bit

• Hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded)

Ice maker water valve contains a flow washer which is used as a water pressure regulator. The ice maker needs to be connected to a cold water line with water pressure limitations of 20-120 PSI. If a

problem occurs, call your utility company.

IMPORTANT:

• It may take up to 24 hours for your ice

maker to begin producing ice.

• If operating the refrigerator before install

ing the water connection, turn ice maker to the OFF position to prevent operation without water.

• All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.

INSTALLATION IS NOT WARRANTED

BY REFRIGERATOR OR ICE MAKER

MANUFACTURER.

NOTE: Your appliance dealer has a kit

available with a V4-inch saddle type shut-off

valve, a union, and copper tubing. Before

purchasing, make sure a saddle type valve

complies with your local plumbing codes.

Do not use piercing type or yis-inch saddle

valve which reduces water flow and clogs

more easily.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Connecting to water line

1. Find a V2-inch to VA-mch vertical COLD water pipe near the refrigerator.

NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but the

following precaution must be taken: Drill on the top side of the pipe, not the

bottom. This will help keep water away

from the drill. This also keeps normal

sediment from collecting in the valve.

2. Measure from connection on rear of refrigerator to water pipe. Add 7 feet (2.1 m) to allow for moving refrigerator for cleaning. This is the length of V4-inch O.D. copper tubing you will need for the job (length from connection to water pipe PLUS 7 feet [2.1 m]). Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut square.

3. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.

4. Using a grounded drill, drill a V4-inch hole on the cold water pipe you have selected.

5. Fasten shut-off valve to cold water pipe with pipe clamp. Be sure outlet end is solidly in the '/4-inch drilled hole in the water pipe and that washer is under the pipe clamp. Tighten packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws carefully and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing, especially if soft

(coiled) copper tubing is used. Now you

are ready to connect the copper tubing.

6. Slip compression sleeve and compres sion nut on copper tubing as shown in diagram. Insert end of tubing into outlet end squarely as far as It will go. Screw compression nut onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten. Turn ON main water supply and flush out tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF shut-off valve on the water pipe. Coil copper tubing.

Connecting to refrigerator

NOTE: The first step for connecting the

water line to your refrigerator is different depending on the type of water valve

provided with your refrigerator. See the

diagrams at right to determine the style of

valve you have. (On kit models, assemble

water valve to refrigerator per kit instructions.)

1. For style #1, disconnect the tube clamp

on the back of the product and insert the copper tubing through the clamp, as shown at the right. Remove the tape label from the valve inlet and insert copper tubing until it bottoms out (ap proximately % inch). Tighten nut by hand as much as possible; then turn the nut an additional '/2 turn using a wrench. Do not overtighten. Reattach the tube clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet. Skip to step 2.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

For style #2, disconnect the tube clamp

on the back of the product and insert copper tubing through the clamp as

shown at the right. Attach the copper tube

to the valve inlet using a compression nut

and sleeve as shown. Tighten the com pression nut. Do not overtighten. Reattach the tube clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet. Move to step 2.

Turn shut-off valve ON. CHECK FOR LEAKS. TIGHTEN ANY CONNECTIONS (INCLUDING CONNECTIONS AT THE VALVE) OR NUTS THAT LEAK.

The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If local water conditions require periodic cleaning or a well is your source of water supply, a second water strainer should be installed in the V^-inch water line. Obtain a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer. Install at either tube connection.
