Ice Production Rate
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced. Allow 3 days to
completely fill the ice storage bin.
■ The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period.
■ To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See “Using the Controls.” Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
Remember
■ The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of
the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the
ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener
chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker
and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot
be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating
properly and is well maintained.
■ Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This
can cause damage to the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.
■ Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin.
Water and Ice Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
■ After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the
water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the
water dispenser pad 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 pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of
4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed. This will flush air from the
filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water
filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in some
households. As air is cleared from the system, water may
spurt out of the dispenser.
NOTE: After five minutes of continuous dispensing, the
dispenser will stop dispensing water to avoid flooding. To
continue dispensing, remove the container and press the
dispensing lever again.
■ The dispenser will dispense either water or cubed ice.
■ Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water. Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh
supply.
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
Dispense Ice and Water
1. Select water or cubed ice by touching the word “water” or
“ice” on the control panel. The light above the control
indicates your selection.
2. Press a sturdy container against the dispenser lever.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to
the lever in order to activate the dispenser. Pressing hard will
not make the water or ice dispense faster or in greater
quantities.
3. Remove the container to stop dispensing.
Dispenser Light
NOTES:
■ The dispenser lights are LEDs which should not need to be
changed.
■ When you use the dispenser, the lever will automatically turn
the light on. If you want the light to be on continuously, you
may choose either On or Auto.
Auto: The light sensor monitors the light level in the room. The
dispenser light will illuminate at half-power when the light level is
low. To activate the Auto option press the “light” button. The Auto
indicator light will illuminate.
On: For continuous light, press the “light” button a second time.
The On indicator light will illuminate.
Off: To turn the dispenser light off, press the “light” button a third
time.
Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.
