Dispenser Light

NOTES:

The dispenser lights are LEDs which should not need to be changed.

When you use the dispenser, the lever will automatically turn the light on. If you want the light to be on continuously, you may choose either On or Auto.

On: For continuous light, press the “light” button a second time. The On indicator light will illuminate.

Off: To turn the dispenser light off, press the “light” button a third time.

Dispenser Lock

The dispenser can be locked for easy cleaning or to avoid unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.

NOTE: The dispenser lock does not shut off power to the product, to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It just deactivates the dispenser lever.

To Lock and Unlock Dispenser:

Press and hold the “control lock” touch pad for three seconds to lock the dispenser. The indicator light will illuminate when Lock is on.

Press and hold the “control lock” touch pad again for

three seconds to unlock dispenser. The indicator light will turn off.

Water Filtration System

The water filter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the refrigerator compartment.

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.

Water Filter Status Lights

The water filter indicator lights will remind you when it is time to order and replace your water filter. When the yellow (Order) light is on, it is almost time to change the water filter. When the red (Replace) light is on, a new water filter should be installed. It is recommended that you replace the water filter when the indicator light changes to red OR earlier if the flow of water to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably.

After replacing the water filter, press and hold the Reset Filter pad for three seconds. The Order and Replace indicator lights will blink and then go off when the system is reset.

Replacing the Water Filter

To purchase a replacement water filter, model UFK8001AXX-750, contact your dealer or call 1-877-232-6771U.S.A. or 1-800-807-6777Canada.

IMPORTANT: Air trapped in the water system may cause water and filter to eject. Always dispense water for at least 2 minutes before removing the filter or blue bypass cap.

1.Turn filter counterclockwise to remove.

2.Remove sealing label from replacement filter and insert the filter end into the filter head.

3.Turn the filter clockwise until it stops. Snap the filter cover closed.

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools.

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
