Using the THIRSTCRUSHER’ dispensing
system
The ice dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage
bin in the freezer. When you press the
dispenser bar, a trapdoor opens in a chute
between the dispenser and the ice bin. Ice
moves from the bin and falls through the
chute. When you release the dispenser bar,
a buzzing sound may be heard for a few
seconds as the trapdoor closes. The dis-
penser system will not operate when the
freezer door is open.
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 CUBE,
a few ounces of crushed ice will be dis-
pensed along with the first cubes.
To dispense ice:
1. For cubed ice, move Ice Selector Switch
to CUBE position.
For crushed ice, move Ice Selector
Switch to CRUSHED position.
2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice
dispenser bar. Hold glass close to
dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of glass.
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.
Personal Injury Hazard
Tumbling ice and pressure can break a
fragile glass. Use a sturdy glass when
dispensing ice or water.
Failure to do so could result in personal
injury or breakage.
