The Dispenser Light
When you use the dispenser, the lights will automatically turn on. If you
want the lights to be on continuously, you may choose either ON or
DIM. If you want only the dispenser pad lighting to be on continuously,
choose PADS. The display screen indicates which mode is selected.
ON: Press LIGHT to turn all of the dispenser lights on.
DIM: Press LIGHT a second time to select DIM mode. All of the
dispenser lights will remain on, but at a lower intensity.
PADS: Press LIGHT a third time to select PADS mode. The dispenser
pad lights will remain on at full intensity, but the main dispenser lighting
will turn off.
OFF: Press LIGHT a fourth time to turn all of the dispenser lights off.
The dispenser lights are LEDs that cannot be changed. If it appears
that your dispenser lights are not working, see “Troubleshooting” or
“Problem Solver” for more information.
The Dispenser Lock
The dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to avoid
unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the refrigerator, to
the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the
controls and dispenser pads. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice Maker
and Storage Bin.”
Press and hold LOCK for 3 seconds
to lock the dispenser.
Press and hold LOCK a second time
to unlock the dispenser.
The display screen indicates when the
dispenser is locked.
Ice Maker and Storage Bin
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first
three batches of ice produced.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker to
a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt)
can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a
softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water
softener is operating properly and is well maintained.
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the storage bin.
This can cause damage to the ice container and the dispenser
mechanism.
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage bin.

The On/Off switch, located on the left wall of the freezer door,
can only be accessed when the ice storage bin has been removed.

ON
OFF
To turn on the ice maker, flip the switch to the ON (up) position.
To manually turn off the ice maker, flip the switch to the OFF
(down) position.
NOTE: The ice maker has an automatic shutoff to keep the storage
bin from overfilling during normal operation. As ice is made, the ice
cubes will fill the ice storage bin, and the ice cubes will raise the
shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. When the storage bin is
at full capacity, the ice maker will automatically stop ice production,
but the ice maker On/Off switch will remain in the ON (up) position.

Replace the bin by sliding it onto the door then tilting it back
into an upright position. The release lever will click when the bin
is securely in place.
