About the ice and water dispenser. (on some models) Spill Shelf To Use the Dispenser Select CUBED ICE , CRUSHED ICE or WATER . Press the glass gently against the top of the dispenser pad/cradle. The spill shelf is not self-draining. To reduce water spotting, the shelf and its grille should be cleaned regularly. If no water is dispensed when the refrigerator is first installed, there may be air in the water line system. Press the dispenser pad/cradle for at least two minutes to remove trapped air from the water line and to fill the water system. To flush out impurities in the water line, throw away the first six glassfuls of water. CAUTION: Never put fingers or any other objects into the ice crusher discharge opening. Locking the Dispenser (on some models) Press the LOCK CONTROL pad for 3 seconds to lock the dispenser and control panel. To unlock, press and hold the pad again for 3 seconds. Dispenser Light (on some models) This pad turns the night light in the dispenser on and off. The light also comes on when the dispenser pad/cradle is pressed. If this light burns out, it should be replaced with a 6 watt 12V maximum bulb. Quick Ice (on some models) When you need ice in a hurry, press this pad to speed up ice production. This will increase ice production for the following 48 hours or until you press the pad again. Door Alarm (on some models) To set the alarm, press this pad until the indicator light comes on. This alarm will sound if either door is open for more than 3 minutes. The light goes out and the beeping stops when you close the door. Important Facts About Your Dispenser I Do not add ice from trays or bags to the storage drawer. It may not crush or dispense well. I Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of narrow glasses. Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause the door in the chute to freeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute, poke it through with a wooden spoon. I Beverages and foods should not be quick-chilled in the ice storage drawer. Cans, bottles or food packages in the storage drawer may cause the icemaker or auger to jam. I To keep dispensed ice from missing the glass, put the glass close to, but not touching, the dispenser opening. I Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you selected CUBED ICE. This happens occasionally when a few cubes accidentally get directed to the crusher. I After crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from the chute. I Sometimes a small mound of snow will form on the door in the ice chute. This condition is normal and usually occurs when you have dispensed crushed ice repeatedly. The snow will eventually evaporate. CAUTION: Some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold. 16
