Water and Ice Dispensers

Water and Ice Dispensers

(on some models)

Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, or a lock option to avoid unintentional dispensing.

NOTES:

nThe dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open.

nAfter connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for

5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) for an additional 5 minutes. This will flush air from the filter and water dispensing system. Additional flushing may be required in some households. As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser.

nAllow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.

nAllow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced.

nThe display screen on the dispenser control panel has a backlight, which will turn off automatically when the control buttons have not been used for 30 seconds or more. When the backlight is off, the first press of a control button will only reactivate the backlight, without changing any settings. Within 30 seconds after the backlight has been reactivated, additional presses of control buttons will change the applicable settings.

The Water Dispenser

IMPORTANT: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh supply.

To Dispense Water:

1.Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser lever.

2.Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

IMPORTANT: Limit water dispensing time to a maximum of 2 minutes at a time.

The Ice Dispenser

Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when the dispenser lever is pressed. The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”

Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by pressing the ICE button.

The display screen indicates which type of ice is selected.

CRUSHEDCUBED

For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size. When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

To Dispense Ice:

1.Press the button to select the desired type of ice.

The Water DispenserWARNING

Cut Hazard

Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice.

Failure to do so can result in cuts.

2.Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold the glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall outside of the glass.

IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.

3.Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: Ice may continue to dispense for up to 10 seconds after removing the glass from the lever. The dispenser may continue to make noise for a few seconds after dispensing.

IMPORTANT: Limit ice dispensing time to a maximum of 2 minutes at a time.

The Dispenser Light (on some models)

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.

ON

DIM

OFF

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 (on some models)

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

nPress and hold LOCK for 3 seconds to lock the dispenser.

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