Personal Injury Hazard
Tumbling ice and pressure on a fragile
glass can break it. Do not use a fragile
glass when dispensing ice or water.
Doing so could result in personal injury or
breakage.
The ice dispenser
Ice is dispensed from the ice maker storage bin
in the freezer. When the dispenser bar is
pressed, a trapdoor opens in a chute between
the dispenser and the ice bin. Ice is moved from
the bin and falls through the chute. When the
dispenser bar is released, a buzzing sound may
be heard for a few seconds as the trapdoor
closes. The dispenser 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 dispensed
along with the first cubes.
To dispense ice:
1. For cubed ice, move Ice Selector Switch to
CUBE position.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dis-
penser 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, large amounts of ice should
be taken from the ice bin, not through the
dispenser.
