Front Fill Button (select models)

The Front Fill Button works independently of the dispenser controls, providing an up-front alternative to the dispenser pad for

dispensing water. This feature is convenient for filling large items that will not fit into the dispenser area (i.e. sport bottles, pitchers, large pans, coffee pots). This feature allows added convenience of dispensing ice and water simultaneously. To use, choose Cube mode from dispenser control panel. Press container against dispenser pad while pressing the Front Fill button.

Water Filter Status Indicator Light

When a water filter has been installed in the refrigerator, the yellow Order light will illuminate when 90 percent used OR 11 months have elapsed since the filter has been installed.

The red Replace light will illuminate when the rated volume of water has passed through the filter OR 12 months have elapsed since the filter was installed. A new filter should be installed immediately when the Replace light is illuminated.

After replacing the filter, press and hold the Reset Filter pad for three seconds. The Order and Replace lights will go off.

Light

The Light feature can be used to provide light to the dispenser area. The light feature is automatically activated and the indicator

light illuminates. There are two methods available for lighting the dispenser - Auto and Continous.

The Auto light function activates the dispenser light at half-powerwhen the light sensor detects that the light levels in the room are low.

The Continuous light function provides light until deactivated. The On indicator light will illuminate.

To Activate Auto Light:

Press the Light pad once. The Auto indicator will illuminate.
