Refrigerator Operation
Water and Ice Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the water system. Press the Water touch pad on the control panel. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the 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.
NOTE: After 5 minutes of continuous dispensing, the dispenser will stop dispensing water to avoid flooding. To continue dispensing, remove the container and press the dispensing lever again.
Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water. Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh supply.
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced.
