To fill a glass or pitcher, position it against the top pot-

tion of tile actuator pad and press. Hold the contain-

er high in the dispenser opening to reduce ice from spilling,

NOTE: When using the tee dispenser for the first time, discard the first two or three dozen cubes.

When using the water dispenser for tile first time, press the pad for one to two minutes to bleed the air from the water line. Discard the first five to six glasses of water dispensed. This will insure pure ice and fresh water for drinking,

Water from the dispenser is cMled, but not as cold as ice water. For colder water, simply add ice before dis pensing water. Also, the first glass of water dispensed each time may be warmer than consecutive glasses. It will be cooler if a full glass of water is dispensed rather than a partial glass. To prevent splashing, fill a contain- er _4th ice before adding liquid.

Ice Dispensing .tips

•When changing the control from CRUSHED to

CUBE, or vice _ ersa, some crashed ice or irregular shaped cubes may be in the storage bin and dis-

pensed.

•If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes

may clump together and need to be broken apart or discarded,

•A slight pause may be noticed when dispensing crushed ice. This is normal because the ice is being

channeled to the crusher. Crushed ice pieces will_aty in size and shape,

•Do Not add ice to the storage bin which was not pro duced by your ice maker - it may not crush and/or dispense properly,

•Avoid operating the ice dispenser eontinuonsly tbr more than five mirmtes. Simply remove large quanti- ties I)om the bm by hand.

•Avoid dispensing ice directly into thin, fine china or dclieate eD,stal - they can crack or chip from the combined pressure of yonr hand pressing them

against the actuator pad and ice dropping into the

container.

To Stop Dispensing
