Ice and Water Service
Automatic Ice and Water Dispenser
Dispensing Water and Ice
To dispense ice or water, position a glass against the top
portion of the actuator pad and press. Hold the glass
high in the dispenser opening to avoid spills.
To stop dispensing, release the pressure on the actuator
pad and hold the container in position momentarily to
catch the last pieces of ice or the last drops of water. The
ice delivery door will remain open for a short time.
When it closes, a closing sound can be heard.
To select ice cubes, crushed ice or chilled water, slide
the control to the appropriate setting.
Water from the dispenser is not as cold as ice water. For
colder water, simply add ice before dispensing the
water. The first glass or two of water dispensed each
time may be warmer than subsequent glasses. A full
glass of water will be cooler than a partial glass. To pre-
vent splashing, fill the glass with ice before adding
water.
NOTE:
When using the ice dispenser for the first time,
discard the first two or three dozen cubes. When using
the water dispenser for the first time, press the actuator
pad for one to two minutes to bleed the air from the
water line. Discard the first five to six glasses of water
dispensed. This will insure pure and fresh water for
drinking.
Dispenser Light
Your dispenser may have a light switch located on the
right side of the dispenser. Depress the switch to turn
the light on or off.
Lock Switch
Your dispenser may be furnished with a lock switch on
the right side of the dispenser. This push button switch
will turn your ice and water dispensers on or off.
Spill Tray
Do not pour water into the Spill Tray grille at the
bottom of the dispenser area. This is a spill area, NOT a
drain. Normal, small spills will evaporate. Larger spills
should be wiped up with a soft cloth or sponge. The
grille slides out for clean up. Replace the grille by slid-
ing it into the track and pressing on the locking tabs. It
is recommended to clean the spill area occasionally to
prevent mineral deposits.
Ice Dispensing Tips
• Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though
cubed ice was selected. This happens occasionally
when a few cubes are accidentally channeled into the
crusher.
• Likewise, when changing from crushed ice to cubes,
some crushed ice may be dispensed. This may also
happen if irregular sized cubes or ice chips are in the
storage bin.
• If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes
may clump together and may need to be broken
apart or discarded.
• A slight pause may be noticed when dispensing
crushed ice. This is normal because the ice is being
channeled to the crusher. Crushed ice pieces will
vary in size and shape.
• Do not add ice to the storage bin which was not pro-
duced by your ice maker, it may not crush and/or
dispense properly.
• Avoid operating the ice dispenser continuously for
more than five minutes. Remove large quantities
from the bin by hand.
• Avoid dispensing ice directly into fine china or deli-
cate crystal. The pressure of pressing against the
actuator pad and the ice dropping into the container
can cause cracking or chipping of delicate items.
