Ice Service If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, minimal ice will be produced during the first 24 hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle 2 or 3 times before making a full tray of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately 1 to 2 days to fill the ice bin. IMPORTANT To ensure proper function for your ice maker, hook up water supply immediately or turn ice maker OFF.
