Using the THIRSTCRUSHER* dispensing system

The ice dispenser

Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer. When you press the dispenser bar, a trapdoor 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 bar, a buzzing sound may be heard for a few seconds as the trapdoor closes. The dis- penser system will not operate when the freezer door is open.

For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being 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 CUBE, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dis- pensed along with the first cubes.

Personal Injury Hazard

Tumbling ice and pressure can break a fragile glass. Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water.

Failure to do so could result in personal injury or breakage.

To dispense ice:

CUBE ICE CRUSHED

1.For cubed ice, move Ice Selector Switch to CUBE position.

For crushed ice, move Ice Selector Switch to CRUSHED position.

2.Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser bar. Hold glass close to dispenser opening so ice does not fall outside of glass.

3.Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: The first few batches of ice may have an off-flavor from new plumbing and parts. Throw the ice away. Also, take large amounts of ice from the ice bin, not through the dispenser.
