7. If the dispenser bar is held for long periods, the dispenser motor shuts off automatically after
2 to 3 minutes to prevent overload. The motor resets automatically after 3 minutes and ice
dispensing can continue.
8. Use only ice from internal automatic ice maker. Do not add purchased ice cubes or cubes made
in any other manner. Dispenser operates only with cubes of proper size and shape.
9. Allow 12 hours after installation before first harvest of ice. Time required depends on freezer
temperature and amounts of food in freezer and refrigerator compartments.
10. The storage bin fills in three to four days depending on frequency of use. One to 2 kilograms of
ice will be made in a 24-hour period with a –17°C to –16°C freezer food temperature.
11. To temporarily meet demands for increased ice production, turn freezer control to colder setting
or Fast-freezing.
Return freezer control to normal setting as soon as possible.
Water dispensing operates as follows:
1. The curled reservoir is located in the refrigerator section directly behind the crisper drawers.
The reservoir inlet tube comes from a solenoid valve mounted on the rear cabinet rail.
2. The outlet tube exits through the refrigerator floor and travels through a conduit foamed into the
cabinet bottom to a location just short of the freezer door bottom hinge. The tube enters the freezer
door through the centre of the hinge pin and runs up the left flange of the door and crosses over
the top of the cavity behind the water dispensing lever.
NOTE: The first glass of water will be somewhat warmer than following glasses, since the
water tube leading to the dispenser from the water reservoir is not refrigerated.
3. Holding a glass against the lever arm until water flows into a glass fills the reservoir.
4. If household plumbing has been disturbed, thoroughly flush the water system. This will help
remove foreign materials in the water and also flush plumbing in refrigerator.
5. If odour, taste and sediment are a problem, a granulated activated carbon filter should be
installed on the household plumbing line.
6. Underneath the ice and water dispenser is a small sump to catch any spillage that may occur.
This is not a drain. However the sump is heated to speed up water evaporation. A removable
grille is provided as a sump cover.
7. A lamp is activated each time the water or ice dispensing lever arms are depressed.
Turning cavity light switch off does not affect lamp being activated by ice or water levers.
8. The light is activated by a push-button mounted in the dispenser front cover.
