Ice & Chilled Water Dispemer

Automatic Icemaker and Ice & Water Dispenser

Your refrigerator has an automatic icemaker and a dispenser that dispenses chilled water and ice cubes through the freezer compartment door. Here’s how they work.

Importint Facts about Your Ice & Water Dispenser

● Your icemaker will produce e~t

cubes per cycle—approximately

120 cubes in a 24-hour period—

depending on freezer compartment

temperature, room temperature,

number of door openings and other

use conditions.

Before Using Your Icemaker and Dispenser

If you use your refrigerator before the water connection is made, raise the ice access door and make sure athe icem ker feeler rm is in the OFF (up) position s shown below.

I Ice access door

● Intermittent dispensing of ice is

normal. If ice flow interruption is

more than brief, ice clump(s) may

be the cause and should be removed

following instructions below and

on page 8.

● Avoid overfilling glasses with

ice and using narrow or extra-tall

glasses. This can jam the chute or

cause the door in the chute to freeze

shut. Periodically open the freezer

compartment door and look down

into the chute. If ice is blocking

the chute, poke it through with

a wooden spoon.

Icemaker

Water flows from household supply through dual solenoid valve (1) to water reservoir (2) and to automatic icemaker (3) as needed.

Water is frozen in cube mold (4) and ejected into storage bin (5) where a motor-powered auger moves cubes forward to dispensing unit. When you set the selector switch on front of freezer compartment door to ICE CUBES, cubes will dispense through chute in door when cradle is pressed.

When the switch is moved to CHILLED WATER, water from reservoir flows through tubing in door (6) and is dispensed when cradle is pressed.

Light switch (7) turns night light* in the dispenser on or off.

*Light switch and night light on model CSX24 only.

● To help keep bi~ of ice from

being sprayed beyond the glass,

place glass close to ice chute—

but not so close that it blocks

outcoming ice.

. Ice should not be dispensed into thin glasses, fine china or delicate crystal-they can crack or chip from the combined pressure of your hand pressing them against the cradle and ice dropping into the container.

●Ice should be dispensed before filling glass with soda or other beverage mixes. This will prevent splashing which is annoying and which, if the splash reaches the ice and water selector switch, could cause it to stick or bind.

●Beverages and foods should not be quick-chilled in the ice storage bin. Cans, bottles or food packages in the storage bin may cause the icemaker to malfunction.

When water supply has been connected to icemaker, move feeler arm to ON (down) position.

Depress water dispenser cradle for about two minutes to remove trapped air from the water line and to fill water reservoir automatically.

Ice cube mold automatically fills with water after cooling to freezing temperatures. First cubes normally freeze after several hours.

●Ice other than that produced by your icemaker should not be added to the ice storage bin—itmay not dispense well.

N~E: With a newly-installed refrigerator, allow about 24 hours for the freezer compartment to cool down to the proper ice-making temperature.
