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.
Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice. Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer. The button controls are designed for easy use and cleaning.

Temperature System
The Temperature System feature lets you know the compressor or evaporator fan is running. It is normal for this indicator light to be on.
Water and Ice Dispensers
(on some models)
Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, a special AUTO mode, or a lock option to avoid unintentional dispensing.
The Water Dispenser
If you did not flush the water system when the refrigerator was first installed, press the water dispenser bar with a sturdy glass until you draw and discard 1.5 gal. (5.4 L) or approximately
3 minutes of water after water begins dispensing. It will take
3 to 4 minutes for the water to begin dispensing. 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.
IMPORTANT: Depending on your model, 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.
ICE
CRUSH CUBE
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.
To Dispense Ice:
1.If the ice storage bin is located on the door, remove the temporary shield from underneath the ice storage bin. See “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”
2.Press button for the desired type of ice.
