Normal Sounds

Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to

you. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be

concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard

surfaces such as floors, walls and cabinets can make the sounds

seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the

kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be

making them.

■ You will hear a buzzing sound when the water valve opens to

fill the water reservoir for each cycle.

■ Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or

the water line. Items stored on top of the ice maker can also

make noises.

■ The high-efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high

pitched sound.

■ Water running over the evaporator plate may make a

splashing sound.

■ Water running from the evaporator plate to the water reservoir

may make a splashing sound.

■ As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to

the refrigerant flowing in your ice maker.

■ You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the

condenser fan.

■ During the harvest cycle, you may hear a “thud” when the ice

sheet slides from the evaporator onto the cutter grid.

■ When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water

running continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a

rinse cycle before it begins to make ice.

ICE MAKER USE

How Your Ice Maker Works

When you first start your ice maker, the water pan will fill and the

system will rinse itself before starting to make ice. The rinsing

process takes about 5 minutes.

Under normal operating conditions, the ice maker will cycle at

preset temperatures. The ice level sensor located in the ice

storage bin will monitor the ice levels.

IMPORTANT:

■ If the water supply to the ice maker is turned off, be sure to

set the ice maker control to OFF.

■ The ice maker is designed to make clear ice from the majority

of water sources on a daily basis. If your results are

unsatisfactory, your water may need to be filtered or treated.

The Ice Making Process

1. Water is constantly circulated over a freezing plate. As the

water freezes into ice, the minerals in the water are rejected.

This produces a sheet of ice with a low mineral content.

2. When the desired thickness is reached, the ice sheet is

released and slides onto a cutter grid. The grid divides the

sheet into individual cubes.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.
