When Dispensing Ice…

Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you selected Cubes. This happens occasionally when a few cubes get channeled to the crusher.

Sometimes a mound of snow will form on the door in the ice chute. This condition is normal, and usually occurs when you have dispensed crushed ice repeatedly. The snow will eventually evaporate.

Sometimes crushed ice will spray beyond the glass. To avoid this, hold the glass up close to the chute.

CAUTION: Never put fingers or other objects into the dispenser opening.

When Dispensing Water…

The first glass of water dispensed may be warmer than the following ones. This is normal.

Dispensed water is cool, not iced. For colder water, simply add crushed ice or cubes before dispensing water.

To Stop Dispensing

Release pressure from the dispenser pad and wait a few seconds to catch the last bits of ice or drops of water.

There may be some dripping after dispensing crushed ice or water. If there is a lot of dripping, the spill should be wiped dry right away.

Do not pour water in the spill shelf because it is not self draining—pour

it in the kitchen sink. The shelf and its grille should be cleaned regularly according to Care and Cleaning instructions. The grille

is easily removed by pressing on the back right corner.

If Ice Clumps Form in the Storage Bin…

The icemaker ejects cubes in groups of eight, and it is normal for several cubes to be joined together. However, if you don’t use the ice very often ice clumps may form in the storage bin and can clog

the dispenser.

If this happens:

•Remove the storage bin from the freezer.

•Break up ice clumps with your hands. Throw away any clumps that you can’t break up.

•Replace the bin before the remaining cubes melt and fuse together.
