The Ice Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
If the ice cubes are hollow or have an irregular shape, it
could be because of low water pressure. See “Water Supply
Requirements” section.
Ice travels from the ice storage bin through the dispenser
chute to the dispenser. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice
Maker and Storage Bin” section.
The dispenser may continue to make noise and ice may
continue to dispense for several seconds after releasing
the dispenser button or paddle.
To Clean the Ice Dispenser Chute:
Humidity causes ice to naturally clump together. Ice particles
can build up until the ice dispenser chute becomes blocked.
If ice is not dispensed regularly, it may be necessary to empty the
ice storage bin and clean the ice delivery chute, the ice storage
bin, and the area beneath the storage bin every 2 weeks.
If necessary, remove the ice clogging the storage bin and
delivery chute using a plastic utensil.
Clean the ice delivery chute and the bottom of the ice storage
bin using a warm, damp cloth, and then dry thoroughly.
To Dispense Ice:
Paddle Dispensing
1. Select the desired type of ice by pressing CUBED ICE or
CRUSHED ICE.
Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.
WARNING
2. Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle. 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 paddle 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: Ice may continue to dispense for several seconds after
removing the glass from the dispenser paddle. The dispenser
may continue to make noise for a few seconds after dispensing.
The Dispenser Drip Tray
The drip tray can be removed to carry to the sink to empty or
clean.
Lift up on the front edge of the tray and pull forward to
remove.
The drip tray can also slide out to assist in Measured/Favorite
Fill.

The Dispenser Light
1. When you use the dispenser, the light will automatically
turn on.
2. The dispenser light also serves as an automatic nightlight.
Once the ambient light in the room is reduced, the auto
sensor will cause the dispenser light to illuminate.
The Dispenser Lock
The dispenser can be locked for easy cleaning or to avoid
unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the
refrigerator or the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the
controls and dispenser levers. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice
Maker and Storage Bin” section.
Touch and hold CUBED ICE for 3 seconds to lock the
dispenser.
2. Touch FAVORITE FILL to turn on, then touch to select
Favorite 1 or Favorite 2. Touch the third time to exit Favorite
Fill display.
3. Touch DISPENSE WATER (center button) or press paddle and
the selected amount of water will be dispensed.
NOTES:
The Favorite Fill dispenser will automatically time out after
1 minute of inactivity.
You can refill several glasses with the same measurement by
continuing to touch DISPENSE WATER (center button) after
each glass fill.
4. Dispense water.
NOTE: While dispensing water, the flow of water will
automatically stop once the desired volume has been
dispensed.
Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle below
the waterspout.
OR
Place the glass below the waterspout and touch
DISPENSE WATER for hands-free dispensing.
5. To pause dispensing before the selected volume has been
dispensed, touch DISPENSE WATER a second time or touch
the water dispenser paddle. Touch DISPENSE WATER or
paddle again to resume dispensing remaining amount.
NOTE: If you stop dispensing before the desired volume has
been dispensed, the display will turn off after 1 minute. If you
have not resumed by then, it will reset back to the original
amount.
6. To select a new volume or start dispensing the same volume
again, you must first finish dispensing the selected volume
or turn off the Favorite Fill feature (either by waiting 1 minute
so it will automatically turn off or by touching CUBED ICE
or CRUSHED ICE to manually turn it off), and then select
Favorite Fill again.
