The ice bucket can be removed for emptying and  
cleaning. To remove the ice bucket, raise the bin arm and  
remove the bucket from the ice compartment. Use the ice  
bucket for ice storage only.  
Ice Maker  
When the ice bucket is full, the ice making mechanism will  
shut off. However, the refrigeration system will continue  
to cool and maintain the cube supply. Frost-free icemaker  
units have lower ice production than manual defrost  
units.  
Normal Operating Sounds  
All models incorporate rigid foam insulated cabinets to  
provide high thermal efficiency and maximum sound  
reduction for its internal working components. In spite of  
this technology, your model may make sounds that are  
unfamiliar.  
IMPORTANT  
Do not place cans or bottles in the ice compartment  
because they will freeze.  
Normal operating sounds may be more noticeable  
because of the unit’s environment. Hard surfaces such as  
cabinets, wood/vinyl/tiled floors and paneled walls have a  
tendency to reflect normal appliance operating noises.  
Common refrigeration components, and a brief  
description of the normal operating sounds they make,  
are listed below. NOTE: Your product may not contain all  
of the components listed.  
Compressor: The compressor makes a hum or pulsing  
sound that may be heard when it operates.  
Evaporator: Refrigerant flowing through an evaporator  
may sound like boiling liquid.  
ULIN_0087_A  
Figure 7  
Condenser Fan: Air moving through a condenser may be  
heard.  
Ice production may be interrupted by raising the bin arm  
into an upright and locked position (Figure 7). The unit  
will maintain temperature for ice storage.  
Automatic Defrost/Drain Pan: Water may be heard  
dripping or running into the drain pan when the unit is in  
the defrost cycle.  
IMPORTANT  
Automatic Ice Maker: You will hear ice as it drops from  
the mold into the ice bin/tray.  
If you are not intending to use the ice maker and  
turn the supply valve off, it is imperative to raise  
the bin arm of the ice maker (Figure 7). Failure to  
raise the bin arm may result in damage to the water  
valve.  
Water Valve: After an ice maker completes a cycle, a water  
valve will make a buzzing sound and running water may  
be briefly heard.  
Certain sounds are normal during the unit’s operation.  
You may hear the compressor or fan motor, the water  
valve, or ice dropping into the ice bucket.  
WARNING  
NEVER use an ice pick, knife or other sharp  
instrument to separate cubes. Shake the ice  
bucket instead.  
During periods of limited usage or high ambient  
temperatures, it is common for cubes to fuse together.  
Shake the bucket to break apart cubes. If the ice maker is  
not used regularly, the ice bucket should be emptied  
periodically 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 every glass of  
water you drink.

by this warranty, shall be borne by you. This warranty is extended only to the original purchaser of the U-Line product.  
The Registration Card included with the product should be promptly completed by you and mailed back to U-Line or you  
The following are excluded from this limited warranty: installation charges; damages caused by disasters or acts of God,
