ICE & CHILLED WATER DISPENSER

(on some models)

Automatic Icemaker and Ice & Chilled Water Dispenser

Some models have an automatic icemaker and a dispenser that dispenses chilled water, ice cubes and crushed ice through the freezer compartment door. Here’s how they work.

Water flows from the household supply through a

(1)dual solenoid valve to the

(2)water reservoir and to the

(3)automatic icemaker as needed,

Water is frozen in the

(4)cube mold and ejected into the

(5)storage bin where a motor-powered auger moves cubes forward into the dispensing unit. Cubes or crushed ice, as selected, dispense through chute in door when cradle is pressed.

When the switch is moved to CRUSHED, the baffle in housing channels cubes through the crusher and crushed ice falls through chute into glass.

Chilled water from reservoir flows through the

(6)tubing in the door and is dispensed when the cradle is pressed.

(7)A light switch turns the night light in the dispenser on and off.

Important Facts About Your Ice & Chilled Water Dispenser

●Your icemaker will produce eight cubes per cycle approximately 120 cubes in a 24-hour period+epending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other use conditions.

●Intermittent dispensing of ice is normal. If ice flow interruption is more than brief, ice clump(s) may be the cause and should be removed.

●Avoid overfilling glasses with ice and using narrow or extra-tall glasses. This can jam the chute or cause the door in the chute to freeze shut. Periodically open the freezer compartment door and look down into the chute. If ice is blocking the chute, poke it through with a wooden spoon.

●Ice should not be dispensed into thin glasses, fine china or delicate crystal-they can crack or chip from the combined pressure of your hand pressing them against the cradle and ice dropping into the container.

Q To help keep bits of ice from being sprayed beyond the glass, place glass close to ice chute—but not so close that it blocks outcoming ice.

●Ice should be dispensed before filling glass with soda or other beverage mixes. This will prevent splashing which is annoying and which, if the splash reaches the ice and water selector switch, could cause it to stick or bind.

●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 to malfunction.

●Ice other than that produced by your icemaker should not be added to the ice storage bin—it may not crush or dispense well.
