Built-In Use & Care 24 Ice and Water Dispenser DISPENSER INITIAL USE After the initial ice maker start-up for all dispenser models, discard the first few batches of ice, the ice may contain impurities from the new plumbing connections. The first time you use the water dispenser for all dispenser models, purge the water system and storage tank for three minutes. This will clear any air in the system, along with impurities from the new plumbing connections. Initially, for water to dispense properly, the WATER key pad must be pressed and held until water flows from the dispenser. You may have to hold the key pad for 60 seconds for water to fill the internal reservoir tank. IMPORTANT NOTE: The chilled water reservoir tank is mounted inside the refrigerator section. It will take several hours to chill the water to refrigerator temperature during the original fill or after a lot of water is used. ICE DISPENSER OPERATING TIPS • If there is no ice, make sure the ice maker system is turned on and indicator is illuminated in the control panel display. • Make sure that the water filter cartridge is in place or that the water filtration system is in bypass mode by removing the filter. • Make sure there is a supply of ice in the ice container. Refer to ice container removal on page 17. • Make sure the ice container is all the way in and engaging the auger motor at the back of the container. If it is not all the way back, push on the ice container and press the ICE key pad on the glasswell at the same time. • Press the ICE key pad. If you do not hear auger motor noise, wait five minutes, then try again. If you do not hear auger noise after the second try, contact Sub-Zero factory certified service. • If the ice dispenser is not used for a long period, the ice may fuse together. To avoid this, empty the ice container as needed. Use a sturdy glass to catch ice. Fragile glasses can break. Also, for external dispenser models, make sure the glass is sitting vertically on the water grille to avoid breakage. For internal dispenser models, make sure the glass is securely pressed against the glass tab to avoid breakage.
