Yes, when you install a brand-new residential refrigerator or a replacement ice maker assembly, manufacturers recommend waiting a full twenty-four hours before consuming the ice or expecting full production because the cooling system and freezer compartment require adequate time to stabilize at sub-zero operating temperatures. Initially, a warm freezer cannot freeze water quickly into solid cubes, and the new ice mold requires multiple complete harvest cycles to purge air bubbles from the water lines, flush out manufacturing residue, and calibrate water fill levels. You can troubleshoot internal temperatures using an independent thermometer. You can verify that the stabilization period is complete when the freezer reaches zero degrees Fahrenheit and the ice maker begins churning out clean, solid, fully formed ice cubes regularly.
