Water and Ice Dispensers
(on some models)
Depending on your model, your water and ice dispensers may
have one or more of the following features: a water level indicator
in the dispenser tray, a special light that turns on when you use
the dispenser, or a lock option to avoid unintentional dispensing.
NOTES:
The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door
is open.
After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the
water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the
water dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for
5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water
begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the
dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) for an
additional 2 minutes. This will flush air from the filter and
water dispensing system. Additional flushing may be required
in some households. As air is cleared from the system, water
may spurt out of the dispenser.
Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water.
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
Water Dispenser
To Dispense Water:
1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser pad.
NOTES:
While dispensing water and for 3 seconds after
dispensing has stopped, the digital display will show how
many ounces of water have been dispensed.
To switch from ounces to cups, press and hold ICE and
LOCK at the same time until the dispenser beeps after
3 seconds. To switch from cups to liters, press and hold
the buttons for another 3 seconds. To switch back to
ounces, repeat the process a third time.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: Water may have an off-flavor if you do not use the
dispenser periodically. Dispense enough water every week to
maintain a fresh supply.
Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when
the dispenser pad is pressed. The dispensing system will not
operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker,
see “Ice Maker & Storage Bin.”
Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. The
display screen reads “CRUSHED” or “CUBED”, indicating which
type is selected. To change the setting, press the ICE button
before dispensing ice.
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.
