Dispensing Options

The Water Dispenser

Your dispenser can dispense water and ice in two ways.

■

The DISPENSE WATER button, located below the dispenser

control panel’s display screen, dispenses only water.

■

The dispenser pad is the pad located along the rear wall of

the dispenser cavity. When pressed, it dispenses either water

or ice, depending on the chosen setting.

To dispense both water and ice at the same time, select the

desired type of ice and dispense it using the dispenser pad, then

press the DISPENSE WATER button while still dispensing ice.

Calibrate Measured Fill

Household water pressure may affect the accuracy of the

Measured Fill feature. For optimum performance of your water

dispenser, you must first calibrate Measured Fill.

IMPORTANT: Flush the water system before calibrating

Measured Fill.

Place a sturdy measuring cup (1 cup size) on the dispenser

tray, centered in front of the water dispenser pad.

NOTE: Depending on your model, a measuring cup may be

provided.

Press and hold the SETTINGS and LOCK buttons at the

same time for 3 seconds. The words “Back” and “1 Cup” will

appear on the display screen. Also, “CALIBRATION” will

illuminate and remain lit while the Measured Fill feature is

being calibrated.

NOTE: You may press the WATER/ICE button under the

word “Back” at any time to exit calibration mode. The

display screen's “CALIBRATION” text will turn off.

Using your hand (not the measuring cup), press and release

the water dispenser pad in order to dispense water to the

1 cup fill line.

NOTE: If overfilling or spilling occurs, discard the water and

press “Back” to restart the calibration process.

When 1 cup of water has been correctly dispensed into the

measuring cup, press the MEASURED FILL button under the

word “Confirm” to confirm the calibration.

When Measured Fill calibration has been confirmed, the display

will return to the home screen.

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 of water.

If 1 cup 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 of

water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower

than recommended. See “Water Supply Requirements”
or “Troubleshooting” for suggestions.

To Dispense Water (Measured Fill):

water with the touch of a few buttons.

NOTE: The amount of water you select will be dispensed. Be

sure that the container is empty and can hold the entire volume.

If ice is in the container, you may need to adjust your selection.

IMPORTANT: Low water pressure may affect the accuracy of

this feature.

Press MEASURED FILL to turn the feature on. When the

feature is on, the Measured Fill screen appears on the
