REFRIGERATOR USE
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.
The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
■
Dispense at least 1 qt (1 L) of water every week to maintain a
fresh supply.
■
If the flow of water from the dispenser decreases, it could be
caused by low water pressure.
■
With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup (237 mL) of
water. If 1 cup (237 mL) of water is dispensed in
8 seconds or less, the water pressure to the refrigerator
meets the minimum requirement.
■
If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup
(237 mL) of water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is
lower than recommended. See “Water Supply
Requirements” and “Troubleshooting” for suggestions.
The Ice Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
■
If the ice cubes are hollow or have an irregular shape, it could
be because of low water pressure. See “Water Supply
Requirements.”
■
Ice travels from the ice storage bin through the dispenser
chute to the dispenser. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice
Maker and Storage Bin.”
To Clean the Ice Dispenser Chute:
Humidity causes ice to naturally clump together. Ice particles can
build up until the ice dispenser chute becomes blocked.
If ice is not dispensed regularly, it may be necessary to empty the
ice storage bin and clean the ice delivery chute, the ice storage
bin and the area beneath the storage bin every 2 weeks.
■
Remove the ice clogging the storage bin and delivery chute,
using a plastic utensil if necessary.
■
Clean the ice delivery chute and the bottom of the ice storage
bin using a warm, damp cloth, then dry thoroughly.
Dispensing
Press ICE/WATER to toggle through the following choices in a
continuous loop:
■
Water (default) - Dispenses water
■
Cubed - Dispenses cubed ice.
■
Crushed - Dispenses crushed ice
NOTES:
■
The word “ICE” appears on the display screen when
either crushed or cubed 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. Select the desired type of ice. To switch between cubed ice
and crushed ice, press ICE/WATER.
2. Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle. Hold the
glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of the glass.
