Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice. Before
dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer. The button
controls are designed for easy use and cleaning.
■ For cubed ice, press the CUBE button until the red indicator
appears in the window above the CUBE button.
■ For crushed ice, press the CRUSH button until the red
indicator appears in the window above the CRUSH button.
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 CRUSH to CUBE, a few ounces of crushed
ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
To dispense ice:
1. Press button for the desired type of ice.
2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold the
glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of the glass.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to
the lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard
will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
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.
The water dispenser
When the refrigerator is first hooked up, press the water
dispenser bar with a glass or jar until you draw and discard 2 to 3
quarts (1.9 to 2.8 L). It will take three to four minutes for the water
to begin dispensing. The water you draw and discard rinses the
pipes.
Allow several hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water.
IMPORTANT: Depending on your model, the small removable
tray at the bottom of the dispenser is designed to catch small
spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray.
The tray can be removed from the dispenser and carried to the
sink to be emptied or cleaned.
To dispense water:
1. Press a glass against the water dispenser lever.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh
supply.
The dispenser light
The dispenser area has a light. It can be turned on manually by
pressing the ON button at the right hand side of the control
panel. The red indicator above the ON button will appear. On
some models: Whenever you use the dispenser the lever will
automatically turn the light on.
NOTE: See the “Changing the Light Bulbs” section for
information on changing the dispenser light bulb.
On models without crushed ice, the light switch is a rocker-style
type. Push the switch to turn the light on, and push again to turn
the light off.
The dispenser lock
(on some models)
Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent
accidental dispensing by small children and pets. To turn off the
dispenser, press the LOCK button. The indicator will appear
above the LOCK button and the ice and water dispensers will not
work. To unlock the dispenser, press the UNLOCK button until
the indicator appears. Then continue to dispense ice or water as
usual.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the product,
to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates
the dispenser levers.
