ABOUT THE ICE AND WATER
DISPENSER
(on some models)
To use the dispenser
Select CUBED ICE, CRUSHED ICE or WATER� Press
the glass gently against the top of the dispenser cradle� The
spill shelf is not self-draining� To reduce water spotting, the
shelf and its grill should be cleaned regularly� If no water is
dispensed when the refrigerator is first installed, there may
be air in the water line system� Press the dispenser arm for
at least two minutes to remove trapped air from the water
line and to fill the water system� To flush out impurities in
the water line, throw away the first six glassfuls of water�
Caution: Never put fingers or any other objects into the ice
crusher discharge opening.
Locking the dispenser
Press the LOCK (CONTROL) pad for 3 seconds to lock
the dispenser and control panel� To unlock, press and hold
the pad again for 3 seconds�
Dispenser Light
The LIGHT pad turns the night light in the dispenser on
and off� The light also comes on when the dispenser cradle
is pressed�
Quick Ice (on some models)
When you need ice in a hurry, press the QUICK ICE pad
to speed up ice production� This will increase ice production
for the following 48 hours or until you press the pad again�
Door Alarm
To set the alarm, press the DOOR ALARM pad until the
indicator light comes on� This alarm will sound if either
door is open for more than 3 minutes� The light turns off
and the beeping stops when you close the door�
Important facts about your dispenser
Do not add ice from trays or bags to the Ice bin� It may not
crush or dispense well� Avoid overfilling glass with ice and
use of narrow glasses� Backed-up ice can jam the chute or
cause the door in the chute to freeze shut� If ice is blocking
the chute, poke it through with a wooden spoon� Beverages
and foods should not be quick chilled in the ice storage bin�
Cans, bottles or food packages in the storage bin may cause
the ice maker or auger to jam� To keep dispensed ice from
missing the glass, put the glass close to, but not touching,
the dispenser opening�
Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you
selected CUBED ICE� This happens occasionally when a
few cubes accidentally get directed to the crusher� After
crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from the
chute� Sometimes a small mound of snow will form on the
door in the ice chute� This condition is normal and usually
occurs when you have dispensed crushed ice repeatedly� The
snow will eventually evaporate�
ABOUT THE WATER FILTER
(on some models)
Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in the back upper right
corner of the refrigerator compartment�
When to Replace the Filter
The filter cartridge should be replaced every six months
or earlier if the flow of water to the water dispenser or ice
maker decreases� On models with a replacement indicator
light, this light will turn orange to tell you need to replace
the filter�
Removing the Filter Cartridge
If you are replacing the cartridge, first remove the old one
by slowly turning it to the left� Do not pull down on the
cartridge� A small amount of water may drip down�
