Optional automatic ice maker...

If you have the automatic ice maker accessory

or if you plan to add one later (Part No. ECKMF-83)

there are a few things you will want to know:

l The ON/OFF lever is a wire signal arm.

Down...for making ice automatically.

Up...to shut off the ice maker.

DO NOT TURN ICE MAKER ON UNTIL IT IS CON-

NECTED TO THE WATER SUPPLY.

l The dial or lever on the side of the ice maker

changes the size of the cubes.

l Shake the bin occasionally to keep cubes sepa-

rated, and to obtain increased storage capacity

l It is normal for ice crescents to be attached by a

corner. They will break apart easily.

LOWER

SIGNAL

ARM TO

START IT

l You will hear water running when ice maker is

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

these sounds bother you.

l The ice maker will not operate until the freezer

is cold enough to make ice. This can take

overnight.

l Because of new plumbing connections, the first

ice may be discolored or off-flavored. Discard

the first few batches of ice.

l If ice is not being made fast enough and more

ice is needed, turn the Refrigerator Control to-

ward a higher number. Wait a day and, if neces-

sary, turn the Freezer Control toward A.

l 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.

l 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.

l Good water quality is important for good ice

quality It isnot recommended that the ice maker

be connected to a softened water supply Water

softener chemicals such as salt from a malfunc-

tioning softener can damage the ice maker

mold and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened

water supply cannot be avoided, then it isimpor-

tant that the water softener be well maintained

and operating properly.

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.
