NORMAL OPERATION On units with refrigerator sections, the unit has been designed to achieve a fresh food temperature of approximately 38°F . Those units with a freezer section are designed to have a freezer temperature of approximately 15°F . On units with ice makers, when the ice bucket is full, the ice making mechanism will shut off. However , [...]

If ice maker is not used regularly , the ice bucket should be emptied peri- odically to ensure fresh cubes. It is normal for cubes to appear cloudy . This is caused by air being trapped in the water due to fast freezing. It has nothing to do with the health, taste or chemical make-up of the water . It is the same air that is in ever y glass of wate[...]

ADJUSTING ICE CUBE SIZE On models equipped with an ice maker , the cube size may be adjusted by changing the amount of water injected into the ice maker assembly . 1. Remove the ice maker assembly cover (see Figure 35). 2. Locate the adjusting screw on the ice maker assembly control box. The adjusting screw is just below the minus (–) and plus (+[...]
