REMEMBER:
s s

Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid impurities that may be flushed out of the system. The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well maintained. It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners. They will break apart easily. Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down. Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice storage bin.

Shelves and Shelf Frames To remove and replace a shelf/frame:
1. Remove the shelf/frame by tilting it up at the front and lifting it out of the shelf supports. 2. Replace the shelf/frame by guiding the rear shelf hooks into the shelf supports. Tilt the front of the shelf up until rear shelf hooks drop into the shelf supports. Check to make sure that the shelf is securely in position.

Important information to know about glass shelves and covers: Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when removing them to avoid impact from dropping.

Refrigerator Shelves
Your model may have glass or wire shelves. Store similar foods together and adjust the shelves to fit different heights. This reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and saves energy.
