Ice Dispensing "tips
•Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though cubed ice was selected. This happens occasionally
when a few cubes are accidentally channeled into the crusher,
. Likewise, when changing from crushed ice to cubes,
some crushed ice may be dispensed. This may also happen if irregular sized cubes or ice chips are in the
storage bin.
•If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes may clump together and may need to be broken apart or discarded,
•A slight pause may be noticed when dispensing

Water Filter (certain models)
The water filter mounts in the upper fresh food corn- partment, on the underside of the Dual CoolTM control housing. Change the filter cartridge every 6 months, or sooner, if the water flow to the dispenser or icemaker decidedly decreases or if an objectionable taste or odor returns,
Your refrigerator was delivered from the factory with a filter bypass in place. The filter cartridge can be found packaged inside of the refrigerator. It can be easily installed without using any additional parts, screws or
fasteners.
Note: The ice and water dispenser and the icemaker should not be operated unless either the filter bypass
or a filter is in place.

•Do not add ice to the storage bin which was not pro- duced by your ice maker, it may not crush and/or dis-
pense properly.
•Avoid operating the ice dispenser continuously for more than five minutes. Simply remove large quanti- ties from the bin by hand.

can cause cracking or chipping of delicate items.
