■If your model has a base grille filter system, make sure the base grille filter is properly installed and the cap is in the horizontal position.

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

2.Use a sturdy container to depress the water dispenser bar until the water begins to flow. Flush the water system by dispensing and discarding 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water. Cleaning the system will take approximately 6 to 7 minutes and will help clear air from the line. Additional flushing may be required in some households.

NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser.

3.Open the freezer door and turn on the ice maker by lowering the wire shutoff arm. Please refer to the “Ice Maker and Storage Bin/Bucket” section for further instructions on the operation of your ice maker.

■Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice.

■Discard the first three batches of ice produced.

Custom Door Panels

Creating Custom Wood Panels

If you plan to install custom wood decorator panels, you will need to create the panels yourself or consult your cabinet maker or carpenter. See dimensional drawings for wood panel inserts.

Flat panels:

You can create a custom flat panel a maximum of ¹⁄₄ in. (6.35 mm) thick to replace your decorator panels. Flat wood panels less than ¹⁄₄ in. (6.35 mm) thick are not recommended.

Raised panels:

A raised panel design can be created by screwing or gluing wood panels to ¹⁄₄ in. (6.35 mm) backing or by using ³⁄₄ in. (19.05 mm) stock with routed edges. Raised panels should be spaced

2¹⁄₄ in. (5.70 cm) from the back edge of the handle to allow room for fingers to grasp the handle.

Weight requirements for raised panel inserts:

■Refrigerator door panel should not exceed 28 lbs. (12.7 kg).

■Freezer door panels should not exceed 21 lbs. (9.5 kg) combined weight.
