Freezer Control to a colder setting. Adjusting the freezer to a
colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice
cream, harder.

Depending on your model, your water and ice dispensers may
have one or more of the following features: a rotating water
dispenser faucet and pull-out tray, a special light that turns on
when you use the dispenser, a lock option to avoid unintentional
dispensing, or an indicator that tells you when there has been a
power outage.
NOTES:
• The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door
is open.
After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the
water system by dispensing water into a sturdy container
until you draw and discard 1.5 gal. (5.4 L) of water, or for
approximately 3 minutes after the water begins dispensing.
The flushing process cleans the water system and clears air
from the lines. As the air is cleared from the lines, water may
spurt out of the dispenser.
• Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water.
• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
