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 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

for 3 seconds to lock
the dispenser and control

To unlock, press
and hold the pad
again for 3 seconds.
Dispenser Light
This pad turns the night
light

comes on when the
dispenser cradle is pressed.
If this light burns out, it
should be replaced with a
6 watt 12V maximum
bulb.
Quick Ice (on some models)
When you need ice
in a hurry, press this
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 (on some models)
To set the alarm,
press this pad until the
indicator light comes on.

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.
 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.
