To dispense ice:

1.Press button for the desired type of ice.

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: The first few batches of ice may have an off- flavor from new plumbing and parts. Throw the ice away. Also, take large amounts of ice from the ice bin, not through the dispenser.

The water dispenser

Chilled water comes from a container behind the meat drawer. It holds approximately 11/2quarts (1.5 L).

When the refrigerator is first hooked up, press the water dispenser bar with a glass or jar until you draw and dis- card 2 or 3 quarts (1.9 to 2.8 L). It will take three to four minutes for the water to begin dispensing. The water you draw and discard rinses the tank and pipes.

Allow several hours to chill a new tankful.

IMPORTANT: The small removable tray at the bottom of the dispenser is designed to catch small spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray. The tray can be removed from the dispenser and carried to the sink to be emptied or cleaned.

To dispense water:

1.Press a glass against the water dispenser lever.

2.Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

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

The dispenser light

The dispenser area has a light. It can be turned on manually by pressing the "ON" button at the right hand side of the control panel. The red indicator above the "ON" button will appear. On some models: whenever you use the dispenser the lever will automatically turn the light on.

OFF ON

NOTE: See the "Changing the Light Bulbs" section for information on changing the dispenser light bulb.

On models without crushed ice, the light switch is a rocker-style type. Push the switch to turn the light on, and push again to turn the light off.

The dispenser lock (on somemodels)

Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent accidental dispensing by small children and pets. To turn off the dispenser, press the LOCK button. The indicator will appear above the LOCK button and the ice and water dispensers will not work. To unlock the dispenser, press the UNLOCK button until the indicator appears. Then continue to dispense ice or water as usual.
