Water System Preparation

Please read before using the water system.

Immediately after installation, follow the steps below to make sure that the water system is properly cleaned.

1.Open the freezer door and turn off the ice maker. For Style 1 lift up the wire shut-off arm as shown. For Style 2 move the switch to the OFF (right) setting as shown.

Style 1

MAX

NORMAL

Style 2

■Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant, the water line, or items stored on top of the refrigerator.

■Your refrigerator is designed to run more efficiently to keep your food items at the desired temperature. The high efficiency compressor may cause your new refrigerator to run longer than your old one, and you may hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound.

■Water dripping on the defrost heater during a defrost cycle may cause a sizzling sound.

■You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating the air through the refrigerator and freezer compartments.

■As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator.

■Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause a popping noise.

■You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.

■You may hear water running into the drain pan during the defrost cycle.

NOTE: Make sure the base grille filter is installed properly and the cap is in the horizontal position.

2.Flush the water system by dispensing and discarding

2 to 3 gallons (8 to 12 liters) or approximately 6 to 7 minutes of water through the dispenser. It will take three to four minutes for the water to begin dispensing. The water you draw and discard will clean the system and help clear air from the lines. 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. For Style 1 lower the wire shut-off arm. For Style 2 move the switch to the ON (left) position. 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.

■Depending on your model, you may want to select the maximum ice feature to increase the production of ice. To do so, set the switch on the front of the ice maker to MAX.

Understanding Sounds You May Hear

Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn’t make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces, like the floor, walls, and cabinets, can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds and what may be making them.

■If your product is equipped with an ice maker, you will hear a buzzing sound when the water valve opens to fill the ice maker for each cycle.

■The defrost timer will click when the automatic defrost cycle begins and ends. Also, the Thermostat Control (or Refrigerator Control depending on the model) will click when cycling on and off.

REFRIGERATOR

Ensuring Proper Air Circulation

In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air to flow between the two sections. Cold air enters the bottom of the freezer section and moves up. It then enters the refrigerator section through the top vent. Air then returns to the freezer as shown.

Do not block any of these vents with food such as soda, cereal, bread, etc. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be prevented and the temperature controls will not function properly.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer from food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
