Important Facts About Your Dispenser

Consumer Support

■ Do not add ice from trays or bags to the storage bin. It may not crush or dispense well.

■ Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of narrow glasses. Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause the door in the chute to freeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute, poke it through with a wooden spoon.

■ Beverages and foods should not be quick-chilled in the ice storage bin.

	Cans, bottles or food packages in the
	storage bin may cause the icemaker
	or auger to jam.
	■ To keep dispensed ice from missing
10	the glass, put the glass close to, but not
	touching, the dispenser opening.

■Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you selected CUBED ICE. This happens occasionally when a few cubes have been left in the crusher.

■After crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from the chute.

■Sometimes a small mound of snow will form on the door in the ice chute. This condition is normal and usually occurs when you have dispensed crushed ice repeatedly. The snow will eventually evaporate.
