Additional Features

Door Ajar Alarm

The Door Ajar Alarm feature sounds an alarm when the 

refrigerator door(s) or freezer drawer is open for 5 minutes and 

cooling is turned on. The alarm will repeat every 2 minutes. Close 

all doors and drawer to turn it off. 

NOTE: 

To mute the audible alarm while keeping the doors open, 

such as while cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, touch any 

button on the control panel. The alarm sound will be temporarily 

turned off, but the Door Ajar icon will still be displayed on the 

dispenser control panel.

Flush the Water System

Air in the water dispensing system can cause the water dispenser 

to drip. After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or 

replacing the water filter, flush the water system.
Flushing the water dispensing system forces air from the water 

line and filter and prepares the water filter for use. Additional 

flushing may be required in some households.

NOTE:

 As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of 

the dispenser.

1.

   Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water 

dispenser paddle for 5 seconds.

Calibrate Measured Fill

Household water pressure may affect the accuracy of the 

Measured Fill feature. So, for optimum performance of your  

water dispenser, you must first calibrate Measured Fill.

IMPORTANT:

 

Flush the water system before calibrating Measured Fill.

 

For best results, calibration should be performed when water 

is not being used in the house.

1.

   Place a sturdy measuring cup (1-cup [237 mL] size) on the 

dispenser tray centered in front of the ice/water dispenser 

paddle.

NOTE:

 Depending on your model, a measuring cup may be 

provided.

Calibration mode. The Calibration icon will disappear and the 

display will return to the Home screen.

   Press and hold the water dispenser paddle, as needed, to 

dispense water to the 1-cup fill line in the measuring cup.

 NOTE: 

If overfilling or spilling occurs, discard the water and 

restart the calibration process.

4.

   When 1 cup of water has been correctly dispensed into 

the measuring cup, touch MEASURED FILL to confirm the 

calibration.

5.

   When Measured Fill calibration has been confirmed, the 

Calibration icon will disappear and the display will return  

to the home screen.

Lighting the Refrigerator

The refrigerator has an interior light that comes on any time the 

door is opened.

NOTE:

 The light is an LED which does not need to be replaced.  

If the LED does not illuminate when the door is opened, call 

Service to replace the light. See “Assistance or Service” in 

“Warranty” section for contact information.

2. 

  Release the dispenser paddle for 5 seconds. Repeat steps  

1 and 2 until water begins to flow.

3.

   Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing 

the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total 

of 3 gal (12 L) has been dispensed.
