REFRIGERATOR USE
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”
The dispenser may continue to make noise and ice may continue to dispense for several seconds after releasing the dispenser button or paddle.
IMPORTANT: If the ice cubes are hollow or have an irregular shape, it could be because of low water pressure. See “Water Supply Requirements.”
To Clean the Ice Dispenser Chute:
Humidity causes ice to naturally clump together. Ice particles can build up until the ice dispenser chute becomes blocked.
If ice is not dispensed regularly, it may be necessary to empty the ice storage bin and clean the ice delivery chute, the ice storage bin and the area beneath the storage bin every 2 weeks.
■If necessary, remove the ice clogging the storage bin and delivery chute, using a plastic utensil.
■Clean the ice delivery chute and the bottom of the ice storage bin using a warm, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
To Dispense Ice:
WARNING
Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the paddle to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
1.Press ICE MODE to select cubed ice (default) or crushed ice. The display screen indicates which type of ice is selected.
CRUSHED CUBED
2.Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle. Remove the glass to stop dispensing. Hold the glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall outside of the glass.
NOTE: When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
The Dispenser Drip Tray
There is an insert in the dispenser drip tray. The insert can be removed from the drip tray to carry to the sink to empty or clean.
■Push down on the rear edge of the insert to tilt up the front edge for easy removal.
