Automatic Ice and
Water Dispenser
The ice and water dispenser on the freezer door conveniently dispenses chilled water
and ice cubes.
To operate the dispenser, slide the knob to the selection of your choice and press
a glass against the dispensing arm, as shown. Be sure to hold the glass as far up as
possible to catch all ice. To stop dispensing, pull glass away from dispensing arm.
When dispensing ice, release the dispensing arm before the glass is full, but do not
remove the glass until the ice has completely dispensed.
A small heated area beneath the dispenser floor catches and evaporates small spills.
This drip tray is removable and dishwasher safe. Do not pour water or excess
cubes into this area because there is no drain.
Light
The dispenser has a light which can be turned on and off by sliding the knob to the
desired position. The light also turns on automatically when ice and/or water is
dispensed. Replace light bulb with an appliance bulb of the same wattage.
How the Water Dispenser Works
The water tank is located behind the drawers in the refrigerator compartment. As
the water is dispensed, the tank is automatically refilled. For proper operation of the
dispenser, the supply water pressure must fall between 30 psi and 120 psi.
After the refrigerator is installed and the plumbing connections are complete, the
water tank should be filled by drawing one glass of water. It may take
about 1-1/2 minutes after depressing the dispenser arm before water works its
way through the plumbing connections and begins to fill this first glass. Draw and
discard 7 more glasses to be sure that the tank and plumbing connections are rinsed
of any impurities. The water delivery system has a built in shut off device that will
stop the water flow after 3 minutes of continuous use. Simply release the actuator
button to reset the dispensing mechanism.
To ensure fresh-tasting water,
plan to use the dispenser every day. If the water
dispenser has not been used for a week or more, draw and discard 7-8 glasses to
freshen the tank supply.
How the Ice Dispenser Works
The ice maker and ice storage bin are located in the top left corner of the freezer
compartment. After the refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled for several
hours, the ice maker can begin making ice. To begin ice production, lower the wire
signal arm to the "down" or ON position. As cubes are made, they are stored in the
storage bin. With no usage it will take approximately 2 days to fill the bin. However,
the dispenser may be used after the first batch of ice is made. The ice maker turns
off automatically when the ice storage bin is full.
Because of new plumbing connections, the first production of ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor. These should be discarded until the cubes made
are free of discoloration and taste. Remember that water quality
determines your ice quality. It is best to connect the ice maker to water that is not
softened. Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener can damage the ice maker.
If ice maker is connected to soft water, ensure the softener is maintained and
working properly.
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the "up"
or OFF position.
