The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer. When the dispenser lever is pressed:
•A trap door opens in a chute between the dispenser and the ice bin. Ice moves from the bin and falls through the chute.
•When you release the dispenser lever, the trap door closes and the ice dispensing stops. The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open.
Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer. The button controls are designed for easy use and cleaning.
•For cubed ice, press the ice cube button until the green indicator appears in the window below CUBED.
•For crushed ice, press the ice cube button until the green indicator appears in the window below CRUSHED.

For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before they are dispensed. This may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size. When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

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.

The water you draw and discard cleans the system and helps clear air from the lines. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.
