The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a
fresh supply.
To Dispense Water (Standard):
1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser pad OR
place the glass below the water dispenser and press the
WATER button.
NOTE: While dispensing water and for 5 seconds after
dispensing has stopped, the digital display will show how
much water has been dispensed.
2. Remove the glass OR release the button to stop dispensing.
To Dispense Water (Measured Fill):
Measured Fill allows you to dispense a specified amount of water
with the touch of a few buttons.
NOTE: The amount of water you select will be dispensed. Be sure
that the container is empty and can hold the entire volume. If ice is
in the container, you may need to adjust your selection.
1. Press MEASURED FILL to turn the feature on.
Press MEASURED FILL again or press TEMPERATURE to turn
the feature off.
NOTE: The dispenser will automatically turn off Measured Fill
after 15 seconds of inactivity.
2. You can dispense water by the ounce, cup, or liter. Press ICE
and LIGHT to select your desired setting. Default, minimum,
and maximum volumes are listed below.
Units Default
Ounces 8
Cups 1
Liters 0.25
3. Press the LOCK and FAST ICE/COOL buttons to adjust the
volume as desired.
NOTE: Most coffee cups (commonly 4 to 6 oz [118 to 177 mL]
per cup) are not the same size as a measuring cup (8 oz
[237 mL]). You may need to adjust the volume to avoid
unintentionally overfilling coffee cups.
4. To dispense water, press a sturdy glass against the water
dispenser pad OR place the glass below the water dispenser
and press the WATER button.
NOTE: While dispensing water, the digital display will count
down how much water remains to be dispensed, according to
the volume you selected. The flow of water will automatically
stop once the desired volume has been dispensed.

5. To stop dispensing before the selected volume has been
dispensed, remove the glass from the dispenser pad OR press
the WATER button a second time.
NOTE: If you stop dispensing before the desired volume has
been dispensed, the digital display will continue to show how
much water remains to be dispensed. The display will turn off
after 15 seconds of inactivity.
To select a new volume or select the same volume again, you
must first finish dispensing the selected volume, or turn the
Measured Fill feature off and then turn it back on.
Rotating Faucet and Pull-out Tray (on some models)
Your dispenser may include a rotating water faucet and a small
pull-out tray at the bottom of the dispenser.
A. Faucet rotated
B. Pull-out tray
The faucet rotates to the center to allow for easy dispensing
into large containers. To rotate it, push in and release the left-
hand side of the faucet as shown.
The faucet rotates to the center automatically. However, you
must rotate it back into place manually. When in place, it will
click.
NOTE: When using the dispenser with the faucet rotated, do
not use the water dispenser pad. Only use the WATER button
to dispense. Dispensing by pressing the container against the
water dispenser pad may result in unintentional spilling.
The tray can be pulled out approximately 2" (5.08 cm) to
better support large containers. It is designed to catch small
spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray.
NOTE: The tray can be removed from the dispenser and
carried to the sink to be emptied or cleaned. Pull the tray out
until it hits the stop, then gently lift up on the back of the tray
and slide it out the rest of the way.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when
the dispenser pad is pressed. The dispensing system will not
operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker,
see "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. Before
dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by pressing the
ICE button.
The display screen indicates which type of ice is selected.
