Power Outage
The power outage indicator lets you know if the power supply to
the refrigerator has been cut off and the freezer temperature has
risen to 18°F (– 8°C) or higher. When power has been restored,
the button repeatedly flashes and the red Power Outage icon
appears. When the indicator is on, all other control and
dispenser functions are disabled until you confirm that you are
aware of the power outage.
To enable other functions, press Measured Fill to reset the
display screen to its normal status.
Water and Ice Dispensers
Please read before using the water system. Follow the directions
specific to your model.
Style 1 (Dispenser Models)
IMPORTANT:
n After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, replacing
the water filter, follow the steps below to make sure that the
water system is properly cleaned. This will flush air from the
filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water
filter for use.
n Connect to potable water supply only.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after
the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on
disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.
NOTE: If your model has a base grille filter system, make sure the
base grille filter is properly installed and the cap is in the
horizontal position.
1. Open the freezer door and turn OFF the ice maker. The ON/
OFF switch is located on the top right side of the freezer
compartment. Move the switch to the OFF (right) setting as
shown.
2. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water
dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds.
Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water begins to
flow, continue depressing and releasing the dispenser lever
(5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 3 gallon (12 L)
has been dispensed. This will flush air from the filter and
water dispensing system and prepare the water filter for use.
Additional flushing may be required in some households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of
the dispenser.
3. Open the freezer door and turn on the ice maker. Move the
switch to the ON (left) position.
NOTE:
n Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice.
n Discard the first three batches of ice produced.
n Allow 3 days to completely fill ice container.
