Priming The Water Supply System

Your refrigerator's water supply system includes several tubing
lines, an advanced water filter, a distribution valve bank, and a
reserve tank to ensure ample supply to the ice and water dispenser
at all times. This system needs to be completely filled with water
when first connected to an external supply line.
Caution
For proper dispenser operation, recommended water supply
pressure should fall between 1.4 and 6.9 bars. Excessive
pressure may cause water filter to malfunction.
To prime the water supply system:
Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a drinking glass
1
against the water dispenser paddle.
Keep the glass in this position until water comes out of the
2
dispenser. It may take about 1½ minutes.

Continue dispensing water for about 3 minutes to flush the
3
system and plumbing connections of any impurities (stopping to
empty the glass as necessary).
Note
The water dispenser has a built-in device that shuts off the
water flow after 3 minutes of continuous use. To reset this
shutoff device, simply release the dispenser paddle.
Caution
Pushing the dispensing paddle in for more than 4 minutes may
cause the dispenser motor to overload and stop. The overload
protector resets automatically after 3-4 minutes.
Ice Dispenser Operation & Care
The ice maker, ice bin, and dispenser feeding mechanism are
located in the top of the freezer compartment. After the refrigerator
is installed properly and has cooled for several hours, the ice maker
can produce ice within 24 hours. It can completely fill an ice bin in
about two days.
Important
The ice maker is turned on at the factory to work as soon as
you install your refrigerator. If you cannot connect a water
supply, turn the ice maker's On/Off switch to the off (O)
position. Otherwise, the ice maker's fill valve may be noisy
when it attempts to operate without water.
Using The Ice Dispenser After Installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the water
supply system as described on page 10. Air in new plumbing lines
can result in two or three empty ice maker cycles. Furthermore, if
the system is not flushed, the first ice cubes may be discolored or
have an odd flavor.
Turning The Ice Dispenser On And Off
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's On/Off power switch.
Press the switch to the "O" position to turn it Off and press to the "I"
position to turn it On.
