Water And Ice Dispenser - Maytag W10252999A User Instructions

Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the
following options: the ability to select crushed or cubed ice; a
rotating water dispenser faucet and pull-out tray; a special light
that turns on when you use the dispenser; a lock option to avoid
unintentional dispensing; or an indicator that tells you when there
has been a power outage.
IMPORTANT: The language of the text on the display screen can
be set to English, Spanish or French. For information about
changing the language, see "Using the Controls."
NOTES:
The dispensing system will not operate when the refrigerator
door is open.
After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the
water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the
water dispenser pad for 5 seconds, then release it for
5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water
begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the
dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) for an additional
5 minutes. This will flush air from the filter and water
dispensing system. Additional flushing may be required in
some households. As air is cleared from the system, water
may spurt out of the dispenser.
Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water.
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
The display screen on the dispenser control panel has a
backlight, which will turn off automatically when the controls
have not been used for 2 minutes or more. When the
backlight is off, the first press of a control button or the
display screen will only reactivate the backlight, without
changing any settings. Within 2 minutes after the backlight
has been reactivated, additional presses of control buttons or
the display screen will change the applicable settings.
The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a
fresh supply.
The default display unit for water dispensing is ounces. The units
can be changed to cups or liters.
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 dispenser button.
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.

must first finish dispensing the selected volume, or turn off
the Measured Fill feature and then turn it back on.
