About the ice and water dispenser.
Spill Shelf
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 grille 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 pad for 3 seconds to lock the
dispenser and control panel. To unlock, press
and hold the pad again for 3 seconds.
Precise Fill
This water dispenser is equipped with a feature
called "precise fill." This feature allows you to
choose a precise amount of water (cups or
ounces) that you would like dispensed.
Press the WATER pad.
Press the CUPS or OUNCES pad.
Select the precise amount of water you
would like dispensed.
If you selected OUNCES, press the arrow
pads on either side of the display to select
the number of ounces you would like to have
dispensed between 1–99 ounces.
If you selected CUPS, press the arrow pads
on the left of the display to select the whole
cups (1–16 cups) and/or the arrow pads on
the right side of the display to select fractions
of a cup (1/4–3/4 cups).
Important Facts About Your Dispenser
Do not add ice from trays or bags to
the storage drawer. 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 drawer. Cans, bottles
or food packages in the storage drawer may
cause the icemaker or auger to jam.
To keep dispensed ice from missing the glass,
put the glass close to, but not touching, the
dispenser opening.
(on some models)
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. On some
models, if this light burns out, it should be replaced
with a 6 watt 12V maximum bulb.
Quick Ice
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 goes out and the beeping stops when
you close the door.
Press the cup against the cradle and water
will begin dispensing. It will automatically
stop when the amount set has been
dispensed. The display will show there
is no water left to dispense, then reset.
NOTE: Do not leave the dispenser unattended
when water is being dispensed.
If you would like to stop dispensing water
before the specified amount has been
dispensed, just remove the cup from the
cradle. The display will show the amount
left to dispense.
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.
