Frigidaire 241540100 (1203) 22Automatic Ice & Water Dispenser, Priming The Water Supply System

22Automatic Ice & Water Dispenser

PRIMING THE WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM

Your refrigerator’s water supply system includes several tubing lines, an advanced water filter, a distribution valve bank, and a reserve tank to ensure ample supply to the ice and water dispenser at all times. This system needs to be completely filled with water when first connected to an external supply line.

!CAUTION

For proper dispenser operation, recommended water supply pressure should fall between 20 psi and 100 psi. Excessive pressure may cause water filter to malfunction.

To prime the water supply system:

1Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a drinking glass against the water dispenser paddle.

2Keep the glass in this position until water comes out of the dispenser. It may take about 1½ minutes.

3Continue dispensing water for about 3 minutes to flush the system and plumbing connections of any impurities (stopping to empty the glass as necessary).

NOTE

The water dispenser has a built-in device that shuts off the water flow after 3 minutes of continuous use. To reset this shutoff device, simply release the dispenser paddle.

!CAUTION

Pushing the dispensing paddle in for more than 4 minutes may cause the dispenser motor to overload and stop. The overload protector resets automatically after 3-4 minutes.
