Using

the ice cube trays

If cubes are not used, they may shrink. The moving cold air starts a slow evaporation. The longer you store cubes, the smaller they get. To remove ice: 1. Hold tray at both ends. 2. Twist slightly.

Using

the optional

automatic

ice maker

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, or if you plan to add one later (Kit No. FRKIT94), here are a few things you will want to know. l The ON/OFF lever is a wire signal arm. DOWN to make ice automatically UP to shut off the ice maker IMPORTANT: Do not turn on the ice maker until it is connected to the water supply. Instructions for ice maker water supply hookup are attached to the back of the refrigerator cabinet. l The dial or lever on the side of the ice maker changes the size of the cubes. l You may hear water running when the ice maker is working. You�ll hear ice falling into the bin. Don�t let these sounds bother you. l If you remove the ice bin, raise the signal arm to shut off the ice maker. When you replace the bin, push it in all the way and lower the ice maker signal arm to the ON position. l 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 well maintained.
