IMPORTANT: Depending on your model, the small removable

tray at the bottom of the dispenser is designed to catch small
spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray.
The tray can be removed from the dispenser and carried to the
sink to be emptied or cleaned.

1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser lever.

2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: Water may have an off-flavor if you do not use the
dispenser periodically. Dispense enough water every week to
maintain a fresh supply.

The Ice Dispenser

Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when

the dispenser lever is pressed. The dispensing system will not
operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker,
see “Ice Maker & Storage Bin."
Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. Before
dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by pressing
the ICE button.
The display screen indicates which type of ioe is seleoted.

Crushed

CRUSHED

Cubed

CUBED

For crushed Ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This
may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise

from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size.
When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed
ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

To Dispense Ice:
1. Press the button to select the desired type of ice.

Cut Hazard

Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice.

Failure to do so can result in cuts.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold the

glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of the glass.

IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to

the lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard
will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.

3.

Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: Ice may continue to dispense tor up to 10 seconds
after removing the glass from the lever. The dispenser may
continue to make noise for a few seconds after dispensing.

The Dispenser Light (on some models)

When you use the dispenser, the light will automatically turn on.

If you want the light to be on continuously, you may choose either

unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.

deactivates the dispenser controls and levers. To turn off the ice
maker, see “Ice Maker & Storage Bin.”

The water filter status light will help you know when to change
your water filter. When the water filter status display changes
from “GOOD” to “ORDER,” this tells you that it is almost time to
change the water filter cartridge. Replace the water filter
cartridge when the water filter status display changes to

“REPLACE.” If water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker
decreases noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should
be replaced at least every 6 months depending on your water
quality and usage. To change the filter, see “Changing the Water
Filter.”
