ICE
CRUSH CUBE
O
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.
2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold the
glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of the glass.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to
the lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard
will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
3=
Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: The first few batches of ice may have an off-flavor
from new plumbing and parts. Throw the ice away. Also, take
large amounts of ice from the ice bin, not through the
dispenser.
The water dispenser
If you did not flush the water system when the refrigerator was
first installed, press the water dispenser bar with a glass or jar
until you draw and discard 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) or approximately
6 to 7 minutes of water after water begins dispensing. It will take
3 to 4 minutes for the water to begin dispensing. The water you
draw and discard cleans the system and helps clear air from the
lines. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to cool down and
chill water.
IMPORTANT: Depending on your model, the small removable
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.
The tray can be removed from the dispenser and carried to the
sink to be emptied or cleaned.
To dispense water:
1. Press a glass against the water dispenser lever.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: Water may have an off-flavor if you do not use the
dispenser periodically. Dispense enough water every week to
maintain a fresh supply.
The dispenser light

Style 2
When you use the dispenser, the lever will automatically turn the
light on. If you want the light to be on continuously, you may
choose either ON or NIGHT LIGHT.
NIGHT
ON LIGHT
@
ON: Press the LIGHT button to turn the dispenser light on.
NIGHT LIGHT: Press the LIGHT button a second time to select
the Night Light mode. The dispenser light will automatically
adjust to become brighter as the room brightens, dimmer as the
room darkens.
OFF: Press the LIGHT button a third time to turn the dispenser
light off.
The dispenser lights are LEDs which should not need to be
changed. If it appears that your dispenser lights are not working,
check to be sure that the light sensor is not blocked (in Night
Light mode). See "Troubleshooting" for more information.
The dispenser lock (on some models)
Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent
accidental dispensing by small children and pets.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the product,
to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates
the dispenser levers.
