The Dispenser Light

When you use the dispenser, the light will automatically turn on. If you want the light to be on continuously, you may choose either ON or DIM. The display screen indicates which mode is selected.

ONDIM

ON: Press LIGHT to turn the dispenser light on.

DIM: Press LIGHT a second time to select DIM mode. The dispenser light will remain on, but at a lower intensity.

OFF: Press LIGHT a third time to turn the dispenser light off.

The dispenser lights are LEDs that cannot be changed. If it appears that your dispenser lights are not working, see “Troubleshooting” for more information.

The Dispenser Lock

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

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

■Press and hold LOCK a second time to unlock the dispenser. The display screen indicates when the dispenser is locked.

Ice Maker and Storage Bin

(on somemodels)

■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.

Style 1

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off:

The On/Off switch can only be accessed when the ice storage bin has been removed. The switch is located on the freezer door, on the left side of the wall that surrounds the ice storage bin. See the following section for bin removal instructions.

■To turn on the ice maker, slide the control to the ON (left) position.

■To manually turn off the ice maker, slide the control to the OFF (right) position.

NOTE: The ice maker has an automatic shutoff to keep the storage bin from overfilling during normal operation. The ice maker sensors will automatically stop ice production, but the control will remain in the ON (left) position.

Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin:

1.Press down the release lever and tilt the bucket outward. Use both hands to hold the base of the storage bin, then lift it up and out.

A. Release lever

NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the OFF (right) position when removing the storage bin. The sensor cover (“flipper door”), located on the right wall of the freezer door, stops the ice maker from producing ice if the door is open or the storage bin is removed.

2.Replace the bin by sliding it onto the door, then tilting it back into an upright position. The release lever will click when the bin is securely in place.

Style 2

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off:

■To turn ON the ice maker, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.

■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: The ice maker has an automatic shutoff to keep the storage bin from overfilling during normal operation. 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.

Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin:

1.Pull the covering panel up from the bottom.

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

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, push the wire shutoff arm down to the ON position. Make sure the door is closed tightly.
