Using the THIRSTCRUSHER* dispensing system
The ice dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the
freezer. When you press the dispenser bar, a trapdoor
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 bar, a buzzing sound
may be heard for a few seconds as the trapdoor
closes. The dispenser system will not operate when
the freezer door is open.
For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being
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.
Personal Injury Hazard
Tumbling ice and pressure can break a fragile
glass. Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice
or water.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury or
breakage.
To dispense ice:
1. For cubed ice, move Ice Selector Switch to CUBED
position.
CUBED CRUSHED
For crushed ice, move Ice Selector Switch to

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser bar.
Hold glass close to dispenser opening so ice does
not fall outside of glass.
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.
