non-use.

container against water dispenser bar.
• Stop water dispensing by releasing pressure on
bar. A small amount of water may continue to fall.

be wiped dry.

Caution
• Select cubed or crushed mode by sliding lever on
dispenser panel. Dispense ice by pressing wide
mouthed container against ice dispenser bar.
Important
Reduce spraying of crushed ice by holding wide
mouthed container directly under ice chute and as
high as possible in dispenser area.
• Stop ice dispensing by releasing pressure on bar
before container is full. Some ice will continue to
fall. Do not remove container until last of ice falls.
If dispensing ice continuously, dispenser motor is
designed to shut off after 3 to 5 minutes. Motor resets
after 3 minutes and dispensing can continue.
A slight delay occurs when switching between cubed and
crushed modes. Pieces of crushed ice will vary in size
and shape. "Snow" may form on door and ice chute
when repeatedly dispensing crushed ice. Allow "snow" to
evaporate or wipe dry.
Dispenser operates only with cubes of proper size and
crescent shape. Do not add purchased ice cubes or
other shaped cubes to ice bucket.
Removing Ice Bucket
• Remove ice bucket by lifting bucket and pulling
out.
• Replace ice bucket by sliding in until bucket locks
in place. Ice bucket must be locked in place for
proper ice dispensing. If Deepfreeze
not close, bucket is not in proper location.
Dispenser Light
(some models)
A light is activated when dispensing ice or water. Some
models feature a night light.
• Activate night light by pushing switch, located
underneath dispenser and left of ice dispenser
bar.
