Shelves and Shelf Frames
The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to meet your individual
storage needs.
Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and adjusting
the shelves to fit different heights of items will make finding the exact
item you want easier. It will also reduce the amount of time the
refrigerator door is open, and save energy.
To remove and replace a shelf/shelf frame:
1. Remove the shelf/frame by tilting it up at the front and lifting it out
of the shelf supports.
2. Replace the shelf/frame by guiding the rear shelf hooks into the
shelf supports. Tilt the front of the shelf up until rear shelf hooks
drop into the shelf supports.
3. Lower the front of the shelf and make sure that the shelf is in
position.
Shelves with under-shelf lighting (on some models):
■
The hooks on the rear of the shelf must be fully engaged in the
shelf supports to maintain proper electrical flow.
■
No more than two shelves with under-shelf lighting may be used in
the refrigerator at one time.
Tuck Away Shelf (on some models)
To retract and extend the front section of the shelf:
1. To retract the front-section of the shelf, slightly lift up on the front
edge and push the adjustable portion of the shelf back toward the
rear of the refrigerator.
2. Extend the front of the shelf by pulling the retracted portion of the
shelf outward until it is fully extended.
Crisper Drawers
To remove and replace the drawers:
1. Grasp the handle at the bottom of the drawer and slide the drawer
straight out to the stop. Lift the drawer off the bottom guide.
2. Replace the drawer by placing it on the bottom drawer guide and
pushing it past the drawer stop into position.
To remove the crisper(s) cover:
1. Remove crisper drawers.
2. Holding the glass insert firmly with one hand, press up in center of
glass insert until it rises above the plastic frame. Gently slide the
glass insert forward to remove.
3. Lift the cover frame up and remove it.
To replace crisper(s) cover:
1. Fit back of cover frame into supports on side walls of the
refrigerator and lower the front of the cover frame into place.
2. Slide rear of glass insert into cover frame and lower front into
place.
3. Replace crisper drawers.
Refrigerator Door Bins
The bins on your refrigerator door are adjustable to meet your
individual storage needs.
NOTE: The smallest door bin must be installed in the lowest position
on the refrigerator door.
Water and Ice Dispensers
IMPORTANT:
■
Allow 3 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.
■
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first
three batches of ice produced.
■
The dispensing system will not operate when either the refrigerator
door or freezer drawer is open.
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.
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.
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 water dispenser paddle.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
