AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER

Priming the Water SupplySystem

Your refrigerator’s water supply systemincludes several tubing lines, an advancedwater lter, a distribution valve bank, and areserve tank to ensure ample supply to the iceand water dispenser at all times. This systemneeds to be completely lled with water whenrst connected to an external supply line.

To prime the water supply system:

1 Begin lling the tank by pressing andholding a drinking glass against the waterdispenser paddle.

2 Keep the glass in this position until water

comes out of the dispenser. It may takeabout 1½ minutes.

3 Continue dispensing water for about threeminutes to ush the system and plumbingconnections of any impurities (stopping toempty the glass as necessary).

Ice Maker Operation & Care

The ice maker, ice bin, and dispenser feedingmechanism are located in the top of thefreezer compartment. After the refrigerator isinstalled properly and has cooled for several

hours, the ice maker can produce ice within 24hours. It can completely ll an ice bin in abouttwo days.

Using the Ice Maker afterInstallation

Before making ice for the rst time, be sureto prime the water supply system. Air in newplumbing lines can result in two or three emptyice maker cycles. Furthermore, if the systemis not ushed, the rst ice cubes may bediscolored or have an odd avor.

NOTEThe water dispenser has a built-in device

that shuts off the water ow after threeminutes of continuous use. To reset thisshutoff device, simply release the dispenserpaddle.

CAUTION

For proper dispenser operation,recommended water supply pressureshould fall between 30 psi and 100 psi.Excessive pressure may cause water lter tomalfunction.

Ice Production: What to Expect

How Much Ice Will a Side Mounted IceMaker Produce in 24 Hours?

A side mounted ice maker will produce 4 to 4.5pounds of ice every 24 hours, depending onusage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 8cubes every 75 to 90 minutes.

How Much Ice Will a Rear Mounted IceMaker Produce in 24 Hours?

A rear mounted ice maker will produce 3 to 4pounds of ice every 24 hours, depending onusage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 8cubes every 75 to 90 minutes.


18/28

IMPORTANT

Small ice cubes or ice chips jamming in the

ice maker may be a sign that your waterlter needs changing. If you have a sidemounted ice maker you may also experiencehollow cubes partially frozen cubes withwater inside. When these cubes areharvested, they break open and spill waterover the other ice cubes in the ice container,forming a solid mass of ice. As the waterlter nears the end of its useful life andbecomes clogged with particles, less water isdelivered to the ice maker during each cycle.

The ice maker can’t ll every cube in the icemaker mold, leading to small cubes or chipsthat can get caught between the ice ejectorblades and the stripper. Remember, if yourice maker is jamming with small ice cubes orit’s been six months or longer since you lastchanged your water lter replace the waterlter with a new one. Poor quality householdwater may require the lter to be changedmore frequently.

18


Ice Maker/Dispenser Tips• Ice cubes stored too long may develop

an odd avor. Empty the ice container asexplained below.

• Occasionally shake the ice container tokeep ice separated.

• If your refrigerator is not connected to awater supply or the water supply is turnedoff, turn Off the ice maker.

• If you need a large quantity of ice at onetime, it is best to get cubes directly fromthe ice container.

• The following sounds are normal when theice maker is operating:

- Motor running

- Ice dropping into ice container

- Water valve opening or closing

- Ice loosening from tray

- Running water

Turning the SIDE MOUNTED IceMaker On and Off

To begin ice production, lower the wire signalarm to the DOWN or ON position. The icemaker turns off automatically when the icecontainer becomes full. To stop the ice maker,raise the wire signal arm until it clicks andlocks in the UP or OFF position.

Turning the REAR MOUNTED IceMaker On and Off

Ice production is controlled by the ice maker’sON/OFF power switch. To gain access to theice maker, pull the ice cream shelf out. Press

the switch to the “O” position to turn it Off andpress it to the “I” position to turn it On. Theice maker also has a built-in wire signal arm,which automatically stops ice production whenthe ice bin is full. DO NOT use this signal armto manually stop the ice maker.

CHANGING THE FILTER

Locating the Filters

Your refrigerator is equipped with separatewater and air ltering systems. The water ltersystem lters all dispensed drinking water, as

well as the water used to produce ice. Theair lter reduces odors from the refrigeratorcompartment.

Water Filter

The water lter is located at the top right sideof the fresh food compartment.

Air Filter

The air lter is located at the top of the fresh

food compartment next to the water lter.

Replacing the Air Filter

In general, you should change the air lterevery six months (the lter status light on thecontrol panel prompts you to replace the lterafter six months) to ensure optimal lteringof refrigerator odors. You may want to adjustthis time period depending on the types andamounts of food you typically store in yourrefrigerator. To replace your PureSourceUltraTM air lter:

1 Pull the air lter housing straight out.

2 Remove the old lter and discard it.

3 Unpack the new lter and place it insidethe housing.

4 Slide the housing back into position.

5 Press and hold the Air Filter Reset button on the electronic control panel for

three seconds. When the display changesfrom “Replace” to “Good,” the status hasbeen reset.

6 The Air Filter Reset will turn itself offafter a few seconds.
