portion of the actuator pad and press. Hold the glass

pad for one to two minutes to bleed the air from the
water line. Discard the first five to six glasses of water
dispensed. This will insure pure and fresh water for
drinking.
Ice Dispensing "tips
- Some crushed ice may be dispensed
even though cubed
ice was selected. This happens occasionally when a few
cubes axe accidentally channeled into the crusher.
Likewise, when changing from crushed ice to cubes,
some crushed ice may be dispensed. This may also
happen if irregular sized cubes or ice chips are in the
storage bin.
• If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes
may clump together and may need to be broken apart
or discarded.
• A slight pause may be noticed when dispensing
crushed ice. This is normal because the ice is being
channeled to the crusher. Crushed ice pieces will vary
in size and shape.
• Do not add ice to the storage bin which was not pro-
duced by your ice maker, it may not crush and!or dis-
pense properly.
• Avoid operating the ice dispenser continuously lbr
more than five minutes. Remove large quantities from
the bin by hand.
° Avoid dispensing ice directly into fine china or deli-
cate crystal. The pressure of pressing against the actu-
ator pad and the ice dropping into the container can
cause cracking or chipping of delicate items.
CRUSHED CUBE WATER
Water from the dispenser is not as cold as ice water. For
colder water, simply add ice before dispensing the
water. The first glass or two of water dispensed each
time may be warmer than subsequent glasses. A full
glass of water will be cooler than a partial glass. To pre-
vent splashing, fill the glass with ice before adding
water.
NOTE: When using the ice dispenser for the first time,
discard tlhe first two or three dozen cubes. When using
the water dispenser for the first time, press the actuator
