IMPORTANT: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a
fresh supply.
To Dispense
Water:
1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser pad OR
place the glass below the water dispenser and press the
water dispenser button.
@
2. Remove the glass OR release the button to stop dispensing.
IMPORTANT:
Depending on your model, the small removable
tray at the bottom of the dispenser is designed to catch small
spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray.
The tray can be removed from the dispenser and carried to the
sink to be emptied or cleaned.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when
the dispenser pad is pressed. The dispensing system will not
operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker,
see "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
Your ice maker can produce shaved, crushed and cubed ice.
Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by
pressing the ICE SELECT button.

SHAVED
CRUSHED
CUBED
For shaved or crushed ice, cubes are shaved/crushed
before
being dispensed. This may cause a slight delay when dispensing
shaved or crushed ice. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and
pieces of ice may vary in size. When changing from crushed to
cubed, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dispensed along with
the first cubes.
To Dispense
Ice:
1. Press the button to select the desired type of ice.
Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing
ice.
Failure to do so can result
in cuts.
3.
Hold the glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not
fall outside of the glass.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to
the pad or button in order to activate the ice dispenser.
Pressing hard will not make the ice dispense faster or in
greater quantities.
Remove the glass OR release the button to stop dispensing.
NOTE: Ice may continue to dispense for up to 10 seconds
after removing the glass from the pad or releasing the button.
The dispenser may continue to make noise for a few seconds
after dispensing.
The Dispenser Light (on some models)
When you use the dispenser, the light will automatically
turn on.
If you want the light to be on continuously, you may choose either
ON or AUTO. The display screen indicates which mode is

The Dispenser Lock (on some models)

unintentional
dispensing by small children and pets.

deactivates the dispenser controls and levers. To turn off the ice
maker, see "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
