To dispense ice:

1.Press button for the desired type of ice.

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: The first few batches of ice may have an off-flavor from new plumbing and parts. Throw the ice away. Also, take large amounts of ice from the ice bin, not through the dispenser.

The Water Dispenser

If you did not flush the water system when the refrigerator was first installed, press the water dispenser bar with a glass or jar until you draw and discard 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) or approximately 6 to 7 minutes of water after water begins dispensing. It will take 3 to 4 minutes for the water to begin dispensing. The water you draw and discard cleans the system and helps clear air from the lines. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.

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.

To dispense water:

1.Press a glass against the water dispenser lever.

2.Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh supply.

The Dispenser Light

The dispenser area has a light. It can be turned on manually by pressing the ON button at the right-hand side of the control panel. The red indicator above the ON button will appear.

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

LIGHT

OFF ON

NOTE: See the “Changing the Light Bulbs” section for information on changing the dispenser light bulb.

The Dispenser Lock (on some models)

Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent accidental dispensing by small children and pets. To turn off the dispenser, press the LOCK button. The indicator will appear above the LOCK button, and the ice and water dispensers will not work. To unlock the dispenser, press the UNLOCK button until the indicator appears. Then continue to dispense ice or water as usual.

LOCK UNLOCK

NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the refrigerator, to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the dispenser levers.

Water Filtration System

The Base Grille Water Filter Status Light

The water filter indicator display will help you know when to change your water filter cartridge. The display or light is located at the top of the refrigerator compartment.

NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.

A new water filter should display a reading of 99% and will continue to decrease as the filter life is used. When display reads 10%, it is time to order a replacement filter. It is recommended that you replace the base grille water filter cartridge when the water filter indicator light changes to 0% OR when water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably. (See “Changing the Base Grille Filter” later in this section.)

After changing the water filter cartridge, reset the water filter status light by pressing and holding the RESET for 2 seconds. The indicator light will change to 99% when the filter indicator is reset.
