NOTES:
■
If your model has a base grille filter system, make sure the
base grille filter is properly installed and the cap is in the
horizontal position.
■
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction
may be used on disinfected waters that may contain
filterable cysts.
2. Use a sturdy container to depress the water dispenser bar
until the water begins to flow. Flush the water system by
dispensing and discarding 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water.
Cleaning the system will take approximately 6 to 7 minutes
and will help clear air from the line. Additional flushing may be
required in some households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out
of the dispenser.
3. Open the freezer door and turn on the ice maker. For Style 1
lower the wire shutoff arm. For Style 2 move the switch to the
ON (left) position. Please refer to the “Ice Maker and Storage
Bin/Bucket” section for further instructions on the operation
of your ice maker.
