Ice Dispensing Tips
l
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 hap-
pen if irregular sized cubes or ice chips are in the storage
bin.
l
If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes may
clump together and may need to be broken apart or dis-
carded.
l
A slight pause may be noticed when dispensing crushed
ice. This is normal because the ice is being channeled to
the crusher. Crushed ice pieces will vary in size and
shape.
l
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.
l
Avoid operating the ice dispenser continuously for more
than five minutes. Simply remove large quantities from
the bin by hand.
l
Avoid dispensing ice directly into fine china or delicate
crystal. The pressure of pressing against the actuator pad
and the ice dropping into the container can cause crack-
ing or chipping of delicate items.

aged 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.
