TIPS

*The dispensers will work only with the freezer

door closed.

aThe ice dispenser will work only if the bin is

pushed all the way in.

muse only ice crescents from the ice maker.

Other shapes won’t dispense properly.

*When you need more ice than a glass or two,

scoop it from the bin or remove the bin. The dis-

penser motor may stop if the dispenser bar is

held in too long. It will be ready to run again in

about 3 minutes.

Ice stored too long can go stale...like water.

Throw it away.

Ice can shrink. Cold moving air slowly evapo-

rates them. If you use ice often, you may never

notice the change.

. Good water quality is important for good ice

quality. It is not recommended that the ice

maker be connected to a softened water supply.

Water softener chemicals such as salt from a

malfunctioning softener can damage the ice

maker mold ana lead to poor quality ice. If a

softened water supply cannot be avoided, then

it is important that the water softener be well

maintained and operating properly.

Plan to remove and empty the storage bin:

If the ice dispenser has not, or will not be used for a

week or more;

9If a power failure causes ice in the bin to melt and

freeze together;

If the ice dispenser is not used regularly.

1. Pull the coverino oanel out from the bottom and

slide it to the rear:

2. Lift the signal arm so it clicks into the OFF posi-

tion. Ice can still be dispensed, but no more will be

made.

Night Light S

3. Lift the front of the storage bin. Pull it out.

4. Empty the bin. Use hot or warm water to melt the

ice if necessary. Never use anything sharp to

break up ice in the bin. This can damage the bin

and dispenser mechanism.

5. Wash with mild detergent. Rinse well. Do not use

harsh or abrasive cleansers or solvents.

6. When replacing the bin, make sure it is pushed

in all the way. Push the signal arm down to the

ON position to restart ice production.

The night light uses a heavy-duty 1O-watt bulb. When

it burns out, purchase another from your dealer.

Sounds you may hear...

Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn’t. Because

the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Don’t be. Most

of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces like the floor, walls and cabinets

can make the sounds seem louder.

The following chart describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you,

and what may be making them.

Possible Sounds:

*Slight Hum, Soft Hiss:

*Clicking or Snapping

Sound<: . . -

Water Sounds:

Probable Causes:

You may hear the refrigerator’s fan motor and moving air.

The thermostat makes a definite click when the refrigerator stops running.

It also makes a sound when the refrigerator starts. The defrost.timer will click

when the defrost cycle starts and stops.

When the refrigerator stops running, you may hear gurgling in the tubing for a

few minutes after it stops. You may also hear defrost water running into the

alce Maker Sounds:

-trickling water

-thud fclatter of ice1

defrost water pan.

When the ice maker is runnina vou mav hear buzzina (from the water valve),

trickling water and the clatter of ice dumped into the bin.

%~ --I

*Running Sounds: Your refriqerator has a hioh-efficiency compressor and motor. It will run longer

than older designs. It may even seem to run most of the time

Energy saving tips...

You can help your refrigerator use less electricity.

*Check door gaskets for a tight seal. Level the

cabinet to be sure of a good seal.

*Clean the condenser coil regularly.

*Open the door as few times as possible. Think about

what you need before you open the door. Get

everything out at one time. Keep foods organized so

you won’t have to search for what you want. Close

door as soon as food is removed.

*Go ahead and fill up the refrigerator, but don’t over

crowd it so air movement is blocked.

*It is a waste of electricity to set the refrigera!or and

freezer to temperatures colder than they need to be.

If ice cream is firm in the freezer and drinks are as

cold as your family likes them, that’s cold enough.

*Keep the Power Saving Control on CONSUMES

LESS ENERGY unless moisture forms on refrigera-

tor exterior.

*Make sure your refrigerator is not next to a heat

source such as a range, water heater, furnace,

radiator or in direct sunlight.

Cleaning your

refrigerator

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost

automatically. But both should be cleaned about once

a month to help prevent odours from building up. Of

course, spills should be wiped up right away.

To clean your refrigerator turn the Refrigerator

Control to OFF, unplug it, take out all removable parts

and clean it according to the following directions.
