REFRIGERATOR USE

Dispensing

Press ICE/WATER to toggle through the following choices in a continuous loop:

■Water (default) - Dispenses water

■Cubed - Dispenses cubed ice.

■Crushed - Dispenses crushed ice

NOTES:

■The word “ICE” appears on the display screen when either crushed or cubed ice is selected.

■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 cubed, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

Water Crushed Cubed

The Water Dispenser

IMPORTANT:

■Dispense at least 1 qt (1 L) of water every week to maintain a fresh supply.

■If the flow of water from the dispenser decreases, it could be caused by low water pressure.

■With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup (237 mL) of water. If 1 cup (237 mL) of water is dispensed in

8 seconds or less, the water pressure to the refrigerator meets the minimum requirement.

■If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup

(237 mL) of water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than recommended. See “Water Supply Requirements” and “Troubleshooting” for suggestions.

To Dispense Water (Standard):

1.Select water.

2.Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle.

NOTE: While dispensing water and for 3 seconds after dispensing has stopped, the digital display will show how much water has been dispensed.

3.Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

To Dispense Water (Measured Fill):

Measured Fill allows you to dispense a specified amount of water with the touch of a few controls.

NOTE: The amount of water you select will be dispensed. Be sure that the container is empty and can hold the entire volume. If ice is in the container, you may need to adjust your selection.

1.Press MEASURED FILL to turn on the feature. When the feature is on, the Measured Fill screen appears on the display.

NOTES:

■The dispenser will automatically turn off Measured Fill after 1 minute of inactivity. When Measured Fill is turned off, any changes you have made will be lost and all defaults will be restored.

Ounces	8	1	128
Cups	1	¹/₄	16
Liters	0.25	0.05	4.00

3.Press LOCK or OPTIONS to adjust the water volume as desired. The LOCK control increases the volume, and the OPTIONS control lowers the volume.

NOTES:

■When increasing or decreasing the dispense volumes, if an adjustment button (-/+) is held for approximately

10 seconds or longer the control may stop responding. Release the button for approximately 2 seconds and then continue making the adjustment.

■Most coffee cups (commonly 4 to 6 oz [118 to 177 mL] per cup) are not the same size as a measuring cup (8 oz [237 mL]). You may need to adjust the volume to avoid unintentionally overfilling coffee cups.

4.Dispense water.
