Press the ICE/WATER button at any time to return to the Normal screen.

Fast Ice

The Fast Ice feature assists with temporary periods of heavy ice use by increasing ice production.

To turn on the Fast Ice feature, press the OPTIONS button to access the Options menu, then press TEMP, under Fast Ice to activate the feature. When the feature is on, the Fast Ice icon will appear on the dispenser display screen. The Fast Ice feature will remain on for 24 hours unless manually turned off.

To manually turn off the Fast Ice feature, press the OPTIONS button to enter Options mode (unless you are already in Options mode), then press TEMP, under Fast Ice, again. When the feature has been turned off, the Fast Ice icon will disappear from the dispenser display.

Filter Status

Displays the percentage of use remaining in the water filter (from 100% remaining to 0% remaining).

To access Filter Status, press the OPTIONS button to access the Options menu, then press OPTIONS, under Filter Status, to display the percent of life remaining in the water filter.

ALSO

The water filter status lights will let you know when to change your water filter.

ORDER FILTER (Yellow) - Order a replacement water filter.

REPLACE FILTER (Red) - Replace the water filter. Replacing the disposable water filter will automatically reset the water filter status tracking feature. See “Water Filtration System.”

NOTE: REPLACE FILTER will remain illuminated if a filter is not installed or installed incorrectly.

Vacation Mode

In Vacation Mode, the freezer will defrost less often to conserve energy.

To turn on Vacation mode, press the OPTIONS button to access the Options menu, then press LOCK, under Vacation, to activate the feature. When the feature is on, the Vacation icon will appear on the dispenser display screen as shown.

To turn off Vacation Mode, press the OPTIONS button to access the Options menu, then press LOCK to turn off the feature. The Vacation icon will disappear, and the screen will display the settings as they were before Vacation Mode was turned on.

NOTES:

During the first hour after Vacation Mode is turned on, opening and closing the refrigerator door will not affect the setting. After 1 hour has passed, opening and closing the refrigerator door will turn off Vacation Mode.

While in Vacation Mode, if Fast Ice is turned on or the Door Ajar alarm sounds, Vacation Mode will be canceled.

Additional Features

Door Ajar Alarm

The Door Ajar Alarm feature sounds an alarm when the refrigerator door(s) or freezer drawer is open for 5 minutes and cooling is turned on. The alarm will repeat every 2 minutes. Close all doors and drawer to turn it off. The feature then is reset and will reactivate when either door is left open again for 5 minutes.

NOTE: To mute the audible alarm while keeping the doors open, such as while cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, press any button on the control panel. The alarm sound will be temporarily turned off, but the Door Ajar icon will still be displayed on the dispenser control panel.

Disabling Sounds

To turn off control and dispenser sounds, press and hold ICE/ WATER and MEASURED FILL at the same time for

3 seconds. All normal operating tones are disabled. Only alert tones will be audible.

To turn all sounds back on, press and hold ICE/WATER and MEASURED FILL at the same time for 3 seconds again.

Showroom Mode

This mode is used only when the refrigerator is on display in a retail store. If you unintentionally turn on Showroom mode, the word “Showroom” will light up on the display. Exit Showroom mode by pressing and holding LIGHT and LOCK at the same time for 3 seconds.
