NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of
the dispenser.
1. Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water
dispenser paddle for 5 seconds.
2. Release the dispenser paddle for 5 seconds. Repeat steps 1
and 2 until water begins to flow.
3. 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.
Dispense Water
IMPORTANT:
The dispensing system will not operate when the refrigerator
door is open.
The display screen on the dispenser control panel will turn off
automatically and enter “sleep” mode when the control
buttons and dispenser levers have not been used for
2 minutes or more. While in “sleep” mode, the first press of a
control button will only reactivate the display screen, without
changing any settings. After reactivation, changes to any
settings can then be made. If no changes are made within
2 minutes, the display will re-enter “sleep” mode.
To dispense water:
1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser paddle.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
Dispenser Light
When you use the dispenser, the light will automatically turn on.
If you want the light to be on continuously, you may turn on the
light. The light icon will illuminate when the light is on.
ON: Press LIGHT quickly to turn on the dispenser light.
OFF: Press LIGHT quickly to turn off the dispenser light.
NOTES:
If you unintentionally press and hold the LIGHT button for
3 seconds or longer, you will turn on the Moisture control
feature. If this happens, press and hold LIGHT for 3 seconds
again to turn off the Moisture control feature.
The dispenser lights are LEDs that cannot be changed. If it
appears that your dispenser lights are not working, see
“Troubleshooting” for more information.
Dispenser Lock
The dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to avoid
unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the
refrigerator, to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply
deactivates the controls and dispenser levers. To turn off the ice
maker, see “Ice Maker.”
Press and hold SPEEDCOOL for 3 seconds to lock the
dispenser.
Press and hold SPEEDCOOL for 3 seconds again to unlock
the dispenser.
The lock icon will illuminate when the dispenser is locked.
Ice Maker
(on some models)
IMPORTANT: For models with a water filter, after connecting the
refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, fill and
discard three full containers of ice to prepare the water filter for
use.
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the
OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made,
the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will
raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not
force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
Ice Storage Bin
1. Wash the ice storage bin with mild soap and warm water.
2. Slide the ice storage bin under the ice maker, and push it
toward the back as far as it will go.
3. Lower the arm on the ice maker to the “on” position.
NOTE: It usually takes approximately 24 hours for the ice
maker to begin producing ice. You may notice the ice has an
“off-taste.” If so, discard the first three batches of ice
produced. After that the “off-taste” should be gone.
Ice Production Rate
The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period. Allow 3 days to completely fill the
ice container.
To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See “Using the Control(s).” Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
