To Dispense Water (Measured Fill):
Measured Fill allows you to dispense a specified amount of water
with the touch of a few buttons.
NOTE: The amount of water you select will be dispensed. Be sure
that the container is empty and can hold the entire volume. If ice is
in the container, you may need to adjust your selection.
1. Press MEASURE FILL to turn the feature on. The Measured
Fill options will appear on the display screen.
At any time while Measured Fill is active, press HOME to turn
off the feature.
NOTE: The dispenser will automatically turn off Measured Fill
after 15 seconds of inactivity.
2. You can dispense water by the ounce, cup, or liter. Press
UNIT to select your desired setting. Default, minimum, and
maximum volumes are listed below.
3. Press the “+” and “-” buttons to adjust the volume as desired.
NOTE: Most coffee cups (commonly 4 to 6 oz [118 to
177 mL] per cup) are not the same size as a measuring cup
(8 oz [237 mL]). You may need to adjust the volume to avoid
unintentionally overfilling coffee cups.
4. To dispense water, press and hold a sturdy glass against the
dispenser pad OR place the glass below the dispenser and
press and release the WATER dispenser button.
NOTE: While dispensing water, the digital display will count
down how much water remains to be dispensed, according
to the volume you selected. The flow of water will
automatically stop once the desired volume has been
dispensed.
5. To stop dispensing before the entire selected volume has
been dispensed, remove the glass from the dispenser pad
OR press and release the WATER dispenser button a second
time.
NOTE: To select a new volume or select the same volume
again, you must first finish dispensing the selected volume, or
turn off the Measured Fill feature and then turn it back on.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when
the dispenser pad is pressed. The dispensing system will not
operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker,
see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”
Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. Before
dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by pressing the
ICE button on the dispenser panel.
The display screen indicates which type of ice is selected.
For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This
may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise
from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size.
When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed
ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
To Dispense Ice:
1. Press the button to select the desired type of ice.
2. Hold a sturdy glass close to the dispenser opening so ice
does not fall outside of the glass. Press the glass against the
dispenser pad or, if necessary, use your index finger or other
hand to press the pad while keeping the glass close to the
dispenser opening.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to
the pad in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard
will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
NOTE: You can dispense both ice and water at the same
time. While using the dispenser pad to dispense ice, press
the WATER dispenser button to also dispense water.
Releasing the WATER dispenser button while still pressing
the dispenser pad will not affect ice dispensing.
3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: Ice may continue to dispense for up to 10 seconds
after removing the glass from the pad. The dispenser may
continue to make noise for a few seconds after dispensing.
