NOTE: Most coffee cups (commonly 4 to 6 oz [118 to 177 mL] per cup) are not the same size as a measuring cup (8 oz [237 mL]). You may need to adjust the volume to avoid unintentionally overfilling coffee cups. 4. To dispense water, press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser pad OR place the glass below the water dispenser and press the WATER button. NOTE: While dispensing water, the digital display will count down how much water remains to be dispensed, according to the volume you selected. The flow of water will automatically stop once the desired volume has been dispensed. 5. To stop dispensing before the selected volume has been dispensed, remove the glass from the dispenser pad OR press the WATER 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 15 seconds of inactivity. To select a new volume or select the same volume again, you must first finish dispensing the selected volume, or turn off the Measured Fill feature and then turn it back on. Rotating Faucet and Pull-out Tray (on some models) Your dispenser may include a rotating water faucet and a small pull-out tray at the bottom of the dispenser. NOTE: When using the dispenser with the faucet rotated, do not use the water dispenser pad. Only use the WATER button to dispense. Dispensing by pressing the container against the water dispenser pad may result in unintentional spilling. ■ The tray can be pulled out approximately 2" (5.08 cm) to better support large containers. It is designed to catch small spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray. NOTE: The tray can be removed from the dispenser and carried to the sink to be emptied or cleaned. Pull the tray out until it hits the stop, then gently lift up on the back of the tray and slide it out the rest of the way. The Ice Dispenser Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when the dispenser pad is pressed. The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker, see "Ice Maker and Storage Bin." Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by pressing the ICE button. The display screen indicates which type of ice is selected. CRUSHED CUBED For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size. When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes. To Dispense Ice: 1. Press the button to select the desired type of ice. WARNING A B A. Faucet rotated B. Pull-out tray ■ The faucet rotates to the center to allow for easy dispensing into large containers. To rotate it, push in and release the lefthand side of the faucet as shown. The faucet rotates to the center automatically. However, you must rotate it back into place manually. When in place, it will click. 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 pad OR place the glass below the ice dispenser and press the ice dispenser button. 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 pad or button in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities. 3. Remove the glass OR release the button to stop dispensing. NOTE: Ice may continue to dispense for up to 10 seconds after removing the glass from the pad or releasing the button. The dispenser may continue to make noise for a few seconds after dispensing. 8
