To stop dispensing before the selected volume has been dispensed, remove the glass from the dispenser lever OR press the MEASURED FILL 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 1 minute of inactivity.

To Dispense Ice: 1. Make sure the desired type of ice is selected. To switch between cubed and crushed, press ICE TYPE. WARNING Cut Hazard Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice. Failure to do so can result in cuts. 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: Ice may continue to dispense for several seconds after removing the glass from the lever. The dispenser may continue to make noise for a few seconds after dispensing. The Dispenser Light When you use the dispenser, the lights will automatically turn on. If you want the lights to be on continuously, you may choose either ON or DIM. If you want only the dispenser pad lighting to be on continuously, choose PADS. The display screen indicates which mode is selected. ON DIM PADS ON: Press LIGHT to turn all of the dispenser lights on. DIM: Press LIGHT a second time to select DIM mode. All of the dispenser lights will remain on, but at a lower intensity. PADS: Press LIGHT a third time to select PADS mode. The dispenser pad lights will remain on at full intensity, but the main dispenser lighting will turn off. OFF: Press LIGHT a fourth time to turn all of the dispenser lights off. The dispenser lights are LEDs that cannot be changed. If it appears that your dispenser lights are not working, see "Troubleshooting" for more information. 13
