Freezer Icemaker (Craft Ice)

This feature is only available on some models.

  1. Feeler Arm

Caution
  • Do not insert round ice into the in-door ice bin, as it can damage the ice and water dispenser.

Note
  • The icemaker begins producing ice approximately 48 hours after the appliance is initially installed. The first batches of ice may not be round and clear.

  • Following installation or water filter replacement, the first few batches of ice may be semicircular or contain air bubbles.

  • If the water pressure is less than 20 psi (138 kPa) or a reverse osmosis system is used, the shape of the ice may vary.

  • The ice may look cloudy depending on the water quality in the installation location and the operating conditions.

  • Throw away any shards of ice you may find in the ice bin, as they may stick to the ice stored in the ice bin.

  • After a short term power outage, it will take longer to make the first batch of ice, and the ice may not be round. If the power will be out for a longer period, throw away the ice stored in the ice bin.

  • The Craft Ice icemaker produces 1 batch of round ice (3 pieces) at a time.

  • In 3 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker produces 1 batch of round ice (3 pieces) about every 24 hours. In 6 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker produces 2 batches of round ice (6 pieces total) in the same period.

  • For more ice, select the 6 ICE mode. For clearer ice, select the 3 ICE mode.

  • The time needed to make ice may vary according to operating conditions.

  • The ice bin stores 20 - 30 pieces of round ice.
