Door Ajar Alarm

The Door Ajar Alarm feature sounds an alarm when the refrigerator or freezer door is open for 5 minutes and the product cooling is turned on. The alarm will repeat every 2 minutes. Close both doors to turn it off. The feature then resets and will reactivate when either door is left open again for 5 minutes.

NOTE: To mute the audible alarm while keeping the doors open, such as while cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, press any button on the control panel. The alarm sound will be temporarily turned off, but the Door Ajar icon will still be displayed on the dispenser control panel.

Water Filter Status Light and Filter Reset

The filter reset control allows you to restart the water filter status tracking feature each time you replace the water filter. See “Water Filtration System.”

■Press and hold FILTER RESET for 3 seconds, until the “Replace Filter” light turns off.

Crisper Humidity Control

You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Depending on your model, adjust the control to any setting between FRUIT and VEGETABLES or LOW and HIGH.

FRUIT / LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.

VEGETABLES / HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.

Ice Maker and Ice Storage Bin

IMPORTANT:

■Flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”

■The ice maker and storage bin are located in the upper left- hand side of the refrigerator compartment.

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

The ice maker has an automatic shutoff. When the ice maker is on, sensors will automatically stop ice production when the storage bin is full. The ice maker will remain set to ON, and ice production will resume when the bin is no longer full.

To manually turn off the ice maker, press TEMP and FAST COOL at the same time and hold for 3 seconds until the “Ice Maker Off” icon lights up. When the ice maker is set to OFF, it will stop producing ice.

Pressing and holding TEMP and FAST COOL again for 3 seconds turns on the ice maker and the “Ice Maker Off” icon disappears.

Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin

To Remove the Ice Storage Bin:

1.Hold the base of the storage bin and press the release button.

2.Pull out the storage bin.

To Replace the Ice Storage Bin:

IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to turn the auger driver, behind the ice bin, counterclockwise to properly align the ice bin with the auger driver. The ice storage bin must be locked in place for proper ice dispensing.

1.Slide the ice bin into the guide rails located on either side of the enclosure.

2.Push the ice bin in until resistance is felt. Raise the front slightly and push the ice bin in until an audible “click” is heard.

Ice Production Rate

■Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced.

■The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches of ice in a 24-hour period.

■To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator temperature. See “Using the Controls.” Wait 24 hours between adjustments.

NOTE: Setting the freezer to a colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice cream, harder.

Remember

■The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well maintained.

■Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This can cause damage to the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.

■Do not store anything in the ice storage bin.

Water and Ice Dispensers

IMPORTANT: After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever for

5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed. This will flush air from the filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in some households. As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser.

NOTES:

■The dispensing system will not operate when the refrigerator door is open.

■Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.

■Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced.
