The Dispenser Lock (on some models)

The dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to avoid unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.

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 controls and pad. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”

■Press and hold TO LOCK for 3 seconds to lock the dispenser.

■Press and hold TO LOCK a second time to unlock the dispenser.

The display screen indicates when the dispenser is locked.

3.Lift up the front of the storage bin and pull it out.

4.Replace the bin by pushing it in all the way, or the dispenser will not work.

5.To restart ice production, lift open the ice maker door and push the wire shutoff arm down to the ON position.

NOTE: If you attempt to change settings or dispense ice/water while the dispenser is locked, “CONTROL LOCKED” will flash on the display screen.

Ice Maker and Storage Bin

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

■To turn on the ice maker, lift open the translucent ice maker door and lower the wire shutoff arm to the ON position.

■To manually turn off the ice maker, lift the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click. Ice can still be dispensed, but no more can be made.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin, and the ice cubes will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.

REMEMBER:

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

■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 storage bin. This can cause damage to the ice container and the dispenser mechanism.

■Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage bin.

Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin

1.Lift and hold open the translucent ice maker door.

2.Lift the wire shutoff arm so it clicks into the OFF (up) position. Release the ice maker door.

Water Filtration System

(on some models)

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.

Water Filter Status Light (on some models)

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.

■After changing the water filter, reset the status light by pressing and holding the FILTER button for 3 seconds. The status light will change from “REPLACE” to “GOOD” when the system is reset.

Changing the Water Filter

1.Press the eject button to release the filter from the base grille.

2.Pull the filter straight out.

3.Turn the cap counterclockwise to remove it from the filter.

IMPORTANT: Do not discard the cap. It is part of your refrigerator. Keep the cap to use with the replacement filter.

4.Align the ridge on the cap with the arrow on the new filter and turn the cap until it snaps into place.

NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water will not be filtered. Simply insert the cap all of the way into the base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.

5.Remove the covers from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place after the covers are removed.

6.Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop back out when the filter is fully engaged.

7.Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”
