Additional Features
Door Open Alarm
■
The Door Open icon lights up whenever either door is opened.

When either door is open for 5 minutes and cooling is on, an
alert tone will sound three times, and the Door Open icon will
flash seven times. This pattern will repeat every 2 minutes until
all the doors are closed properly. The feature then resets and
will reactivate when either door is left open again for
5 minutes.

To mute the audible alarm while keeping the doors open,
such as while cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, press
any button on the control panel. The alarm sound will be
temporarily turned off, but the Door Open icon will still be

icon.

Water Dispenser
(on some models)
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 the refrigerator
door 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.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until water begins to flow.
4. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing
the dispenser paddle (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a
total of 4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed.
Dispense Water
IMPORTANT:
■
The dispensing system will not operate when the refrigerator
door is open.
■
The display screen on the dispenser control panel will turn off
automatically and enter “sleep” mode when the control
buttons and dispenser paddles have not been used for
2 minutes or more. While in “sleep” mode, the first press of a
control button will only reactivate the display screen, without
changing any settings. After reactivation, changes to any
settings can then be made. If no changes are made within
2 minutes, the display will re-enter “sleep” mode.
To dispense water:
1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser paddle.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
