Convertible Drawer Temperature Control (on some models) The control can be adjusted to properly chill meats or vegetables. The air inside the pan is cooled to avoid "spot" freezing and can be set to keep meats at the National Livestock and Meat Board recommended storage temperatures of 28° to 32°F (-2° to 0°C). To store meat: Set the control to one of the three MEAT settings to store meat at its optimal storage temperature. To store vegetables: Set the control to VEG to store vegetables at their optimal storage temperatures. NOTE: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the right (less cold), toward the VEG setting. Remember to wait 24 hours between adjustments. Crisper Humidity Control (on some models) You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between LOW and HIGH. LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins. HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables. Chilled Door Bin (on some models) Cool air from the freezer is directed to the refrigerator door bin directly beneath the vents. NOTE: The dairy compartment and can rack are not associated with the Chilled Door Bin feature. Chilled Door Bin Control The chilled door bin control is located on the left-hand side of the refrigerator compartment. A A. Chilled door bin control ■ Slide the door chill control to the left to reduce the flow of cold air to the bin and make it less cold. ■ Slide the door chill control to the right to increase the flow of cold air to the bin and make it colder. Water and Ice Dispensers IMPORTANT: After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever 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 lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed. This will flush air from the filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in some households. As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser. NOTES: ■ The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open. ■ 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 will turn off automatically and enter "sleep" mode when the control buttons and dispenser levers have not been used for 2 minutes or more. While in "sleep" mode, the first press of a control button will only reactivate the display screen, without changing any settings. After reactivation, changes to any settings can then be made. If no changes are made within 2 minutes, the display will re-enter "sleep" mode. The Water Dispenser IMPORTANT: Dispense at least 1 qt (1 L) of water every week to maintain a fresh supply. To Dispense Water (Standard): 1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser lever. NOTE: While dispensing water and for 3 seconds after dispensing has stopped, the digital display will show how much water has been dispensed. 2. Remove the glass 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. IMPORTANT: Low water pressure may affect the accuracy of this feature. See "Water Supply Requirements." 1. Press MEASURED FILL to turn the feature on. When the feature is on, the Measured Fill screen appears on the display. Press ICE TYPE to manually turn off the Measured Fill feature. NOTE: The dispenser will automatically turn off Measured Fill after 1 minute of inactivity. When Measured Fill is turned off, any changes you have made will be lost and all defaults will be restored. 12
