horizontal position.
1. Turn on the ice maker. Lower the wire shutoff arm as shown.
Please refer to “Ice Maker and Storage Bin” for further
instructions on the operation of your ice maker.
NOTES:
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the rst batch of ice.
■ Allow 3 days to completely ll ice container.
■ Depending on your model, you may want to select the
maximum ice feature to increase the production of ice.
Install Produce Preserver
(on some models)
The produce preserver absorbs ethylene to slow the ripening
process of many produce items. As a result, certain produce
items will stay fresh longer.
Ethylene production and sensitivity varies depending on the type
of fruit or vegetable. To preserve freshness, it is best to separate
produce with sensitivity to ethylene from fruits that produce
moderate to high amounts of ethylene.
■ Depending on your model, you may want to select the
maximum ice feature to increase the production of ice.
Style 2 (Non-Dispenser Models)
IMPORTANT: After connecting the refrigerator to a water source
or replacing the water lter, ll and discard two full containers of
ice to prepare the water lter for use, before using the ice.
