To Replace the Ice Storage Bin:
IMPORTANT:
It may be necessary to turn the auger driver, behind

auger driver. The ice storage bin must be locked in place for
proper ice dispensing.
1.
Press the switch to the ON position
2.

Ice Production Rate
■
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced. Allow 3 days to completely
fill the ice storage bin.
■
The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period.
■
To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See “Using the Controls.” Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
Remember
■
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 bin. This
can cause damage to the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.
■
Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin.
Water and Ice Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
■
After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the
water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the
water dispenser pad for 5 seconds, then release it for
5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water
begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the
dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of
4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed. This will flush air from the
filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water
filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in some
households. As air is cleared from the system, water may
spurt out of the dispenser.
NOTE:
After 5 minutes of continuous dispensing, the
dispenser will stop dispensing water to avoid flooding. To
continue dispensing, remove the container and press the
dispensing lever again.
■
Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water. Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh
supply.
■
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
Dispense Ice and Water
■
The dispenser will dispense either water or cubed ice.
■
The Dispense Water control allows you to fill containers that
will not fit within the dispenser area, such as sport bottles.
1.
Select either water or cubed ice by touching “Water” or “Ice”
on the control panel. The light above the control indicates your
selection.
2.
Press a sturdy container against the dispenser lever.
IMPORTANT:
You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the
lever in order to activate the dispenser. Pressing hard will not
make the water or ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
3.
Remove the container to stop dispensing.
Dispenser Light
NOTES:
■
The dispenser lights are LEDs which should not need to be
changed.
■
When you use the dispenser, the lever will automatically turn
the light on. If you want the light to be on continuously, you
may choose either On or Auto.
Auto:
The light sensor monitors the light level in the room. The
dispenser light will illuminate at half-power when the light level is
low. To activate the Auto option press the Light touch pad. The
Auto indicator light will illuminate.
On:
For continuous light, press the Light touch pad a second
time. The On indicator light will illuminate.
Off:
To turn the dispenser light off, press the Light touch pad a
third time.
