Ice cube trays.. .

If cubes are not used, they may shrink. The moving

cold air starts a slow evaporation. The longer cubes

are stored, the smaller they get.

To remove ice:

1. Hold tray at both ends

2. Slightly twist.

Changing the light bulb...

WARNING: Before removing the light shield for

cleaning or for replacing the bulb,

either unplug refrigerator or dlscon-

nect electricity leadlng to re-

frigerator at the maln power supply.

Shock and injury can occur if elec-

trlclty remains connected.

Optional automatic ice maker.. .

If you have the automatic ice maker accessory or

plan to add one later [Part No. ECKMF-83), there are

a few things you will want to know:

The ON/OFF lever is a wire signal arm.

Down...fcx making ice automatically;

Up...toshut off the ice maker.

Shake the bin occasionally to keep cubes sepa-

rated, and to obtain increased storage capacity.

Arm to Start It. Arm to Stop Ice Maker.

It is normal for ice crescents to be attached by a

corner, They will break apart easily,

You will hear water runnrng when ice maker is

working. You’ll hear ice fall Into the bin. Don’t let

these sounds bother you.

-.,*a*;_,.-/,/j I/.*. ~ I~__.L..~,, .,

Removing the base grille...

1. Push lightly on the top center of the light shield until

the notched tab unhooks from the control panel.

2. Pull down on the shield until the tab clears the con-

trol panel.

3. Lift the back hooks out of their slots.

4. Replace with a 40-watt appliance bulb.

5. Replace light shield in reverse order

The ice maker will not operate until the freezer is

cold enough to make ice. This can take overnight.

Because of new plumbing connections, the first

ice may be discolored or off-flavored Discard the

first few batches of ice.

If ice is not being made fast enough and more ice

is needed. turn the Temperature Control toward a

higher number. Wait a day and, if necessary, turn

the Air Control toward A.

If you remove the ice bin, raise the signal arm to

shut off the ice maker. When you return the bin,

push it all the way in and lower the arm to the ON

position.

If cubes are stored too long, they may develop an

off -flavor,, like stale water. Throw them away. They

will be replaced. Cubes in the ice bin can also

become smaller by evaporation.

Good water quality is important for good ice quality

It is not recommended that the ice maker be con-

nected to a softened water supply. Water softener

chemicals such as salt from a malfunctioning soft-

ener can damage the ice maker mold and lead to

poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot

be avoided, then it is important that the water soff-

ener be well maintained and operating properly.

1. Open the doors.

2. Pull grille outwards as shown

Do not remove Tech sheet

fastened behind grille.

To replace:

1. Line up grille support tabs with metal clips.

2. Push firmly to snap into place.

3. Close the doors.

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 chartdescribes the kinds of sounds that might be new

to you. and what may be making them.

Possible Sounds:

Slight Hum, Soft Hiss:

Cllcklng or Snapplng

Sounds:

Water Sounds:

Probable Causes:

You may hear the refrigerator’s fan motor and

moving

air.

The defrost timer makes a definite click when the refrigerator stops running. It

also makes a sound when the refrigerator starts.

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

defrost water oar?.

Ice Maker Sounds:

-trickling water If your refrigerator has an ice maker, you may hear buzzing [from the water

-thud (clatter of ice] valve), trickling water and the clatter of ice dumped into the bin.

Runnlng Sounds: Your refrigerator has a high-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 cabi-

net 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 refrigerator 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 OFF unless

moisture forms on the refrrgerator exterior.

Make sure your refrigerator is not next to a heat

source such as a range, water heater, furnace, radi-

ator, 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 odors from building

up. Of course, spills should be wiped up right away.

To clean your refrigerator, turn the Temperature

Control to OFF, unplug it, take out all removable

parts, and clean it according to the following

directions.
