NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of
the dispenser.
1. Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water
dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds.
2. Repeat Step 1 until water begins to flow.
3. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and
releasing the dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off)
until a total of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed.
Additional flushing may be required in some households.
The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
Dispense at least 1 qt (1 L) of water every week to maintain a
fresh supply.
If the flow of water from the dispenser decreases, it could be
caused by low water pressure.
With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup (237 mL)
of water. If 1 cup of water is dispensed in 8 seconds or
less, the water pressure to the refrigerator meets the
minimum requirement.
If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup of
water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower
than recommended. See "Water Supply Requirements"
or "Problem Solver" for suggestions.
To Dispense Water:
1. Press the WATER button to select water.
2. Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser lever. Hold the
glass close to the water dispenser spout to ensure that the
water dispenses into the glass.

3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
IMPORTANT: The small tray at the bottom of the dispenser is
designed to catch small spills and allow for easy cleaning. There
is no drain in the tray. To empty and clean the tray, push down
on the back of the removable tray lid and pull it out.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer.
When the dispenser lever is pressed, a trap door opens in a
chute between the dispenser and the ice bin. Ice moves from the
bin and falls through the chute. When you release the dispenser
lever, the trap door closes and the ice dispensing stops.
Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice. Before
dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer.
Press the CRUSHED button for crushed ice, or the CUBED
button for cubed ice.
For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before they are dispensed.
This may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice.
Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary
in size. When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of
crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
To Dispense Ice:
1. Press button for the desired type of ice.
WARNING
Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.
2. Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser lever. Hold the
glass close to the ice guide to ensure that the ice dispenses
into the glass.
