Using the ice and water dispensers
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.
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 trap-
door closes. The dispenser system will not
operate when the freezer door is open.
To dispense ice:
1.
Press a sturdy glass against the ice dis-
penser bar. HoM glass close to dispenser
opening so ice does not fall outside of glass.
2. 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 dis-
penser.
The water dispenser
Chilled water comes from a tank behind the
meat drawer. It hokfs approximately 1 l/2 quarts
(1.5 L).
When the refrigerator is first hooked up,
press the water dispenser bar with a glass or
jar until you draw and discard 2 or 3 quarts (1.9
to 2.8 L). The water you draw and discard
rinses the tank and pipes.
Allow several hours to chill a new tankful.
NOTE: The
small tray beneath the dispenser is
designed to evaporate
small
spills. There is no
drain in this tray.
Do not
pour water into it.
