'operating the Ice and Water Dispenser
The water is forced by household water
pressure through the tubing and out the
water dispenser
This water Is cooled in the water reser­
voir. Some water remains in the water
iine to the dispenser, causing the first
glass of water to be somewhat warmer
than the folfowing glasses
Ice Dispenser
To operate apply pressure against the
dispenser bar with a glass or other con­
tainer. This activates the ice auger and
ice wheel which automatically delivers
ice to the glass.
’lease pressure on the dispenser
ЛТ before glass is full. Do not
remove the glass until the last of the
cubes fall.
Normal Operation. Allow 4 to 12 hours
after installation for the first ice harvest
The time required will depend on the
freezer temperature and the amount of
food in the unit.
The ice storage bin takes about three or
four days to fill, depending on how often
you use it. At first, your family will be
using it quite frequently.
To help meet this demand, you can
speed ice production by turning the
freezer control to a colder setting.
For best overall operation of the
unit, be sure to return the freezer
control to its previous position as
soon as possible.
If you use very little ice over a period of
a week or so — or if you use none at all
for that period — the ice cubes may
freeze into a solid mass and the unit will
not dispense ice. You must then remove
he ice bin (follow instructions on next
ige), thaw the ice and throw tl away.
Overload. If you hold the dispenser bar
in the ON position for approximately 4-5
minutes, the dispenser motor may trip
out on overload This could occur if you
were trying to fill a large container with
ice. The overload will reset automaticaily
in approximately 3 minutes, after which
ice can again be dispensed.
IIVIPORTANT! UNDER NO CIRCUM­
STANCE SHOULD YOU USE AN iCE
PICK OR SIMILAR SHARP INSTRU­
MENT TO BREAK THE ICE. To do this

How the Ice Dispenser Works
Safety. All the ice making and dispens­
ing mechanisms are enclosed within
their own compartment for safety and
for maximum storage space in the
freezer section.
Whenever the freezer door is opened,
the ice dispenser mechanism is inter­
rupted, This prevents the dispensing of
ice and also insures that you can serv­
ice the ice bucket safely.
Water is automatically measured into
the ice maker. When the water freezes,
a sensor initiates the ejector blades that
dump the cubes into the U-shaped har­
vester bin, where they are held in stor­
age for delivery When you push the
Dispenser Bar, a large auger gently, but
firmly, moves cubes from the bin. See
Figure 17.
