Do not pour water and excess ice in this area becausethere is no drain,

HOWTHEWATER DISPENSERWORKS

The water tank, Iocated behind the drawers in the refrigeratorcompartment, automatically fills as water is dispensed. Forproper dispenser operation, the recommended supply waterpressure should fall between 30 psi and 100 psi.

After the refrigerator is connected to the water supply, fill thewater tank by drawing one glass of water. It may take about11/2minutes after activating the dispenser paddle before waterbegins to filI this first glass. Continue flushing the system for 3minutes to rid the tank and plumbing connections of anyimpurities. The water dispenser has a built in shutoff devicethat will stop the water flow after 3 minutes of continuous use.Simply release the dispenser paddle to reset the shutoffmechanism.

HOWTHE ICE DISPENSER WORKS

The ice maker and container are located in the top of thefreezer compartment. After the refrigerator is installed properlyand has cooled for several hours, the ice maker can beginmaking ice within 24 hours. Air in new plumbing lines maycause the ice maker to cycle two or three times before makinga full tray of ice. To begin ice production, lower the wire signalarm to the "down" or ON position. With no usage it will takeapproximately 2 days to fill the ice container. The ice makerturns off automatically when the ice container becomes full. Tostop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks, andlocks in the "up" or OFF position.

Because of new plumbing I o,connections, the firstproduction of ice cubes maybe discolored or have anodd flavor. These should bediscarded until the cubesmade are free ofdiscoloration and taste.

10

HCE ANDWATER DHSPENSER FEATURES

The ice and water dispenser conveniently dispenses chilledwater, and ice cubes or crushed ice, depending on the model.

To operate the ice dispenser, select the ice option desiredusing the touchpad. Press a glass against the dispensingpaddle as far up as possible to catch all ice. To stopdispensing ice, pulI glass away from dispensing paddle. Donot remove the glass until the ice has completely dispensed.(Complete instructions for the dispenser operation areattached to the inside of the freezer door.)

ICE DISPENSER TIPS

,, Ice cubes stored too Iong may develop an odd flavor.Empty the ice container and ensure that the wire signalarm is in its "down" or ON position. The ice maker will thenproduce more ice.

,, Occasionaily shake the ice container to keep iceseparated.

Keep the wire signal arm in its "up" or OFF position untilthe refrigerator is connected to the water supply orwhenever the water supply is turned off.

CLEANING THE ICE DISPENSER

Clean the dispenser and ice container at regular intervals,particularly before you take a vacation or move, or if the icedispenser sticks.

1. Stop ice production by lifting the wire signal arm to the"up" or OFF position.

2. Remove ice container by lifting up and out. Empty andcarefully clean the container with mild detergent. Rinsewith clear water. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.

Allow ice container to dry completely before replacing inthe freezer.

3. Remove ice chips and clean the shelf and chute thatsupports the ice container.

4. Replace the ice container. Lower the wire signal arm onthe ice maker to the "down" or ON position and the icemaker will resume production.

,, If a large quantity of ice is needed at one time, it is best toremove cubes directly from the ice container.

,, The following sounds are normal when the ice maker isoperating:

,, Motor running

,, Ice dropping into ice container

,, Water valve opening or closing

,, Ice loosening from tray

,, Running water

,, Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and duringvacations.

,, If the ice maker will be turned off for a long period of time,turn the water supply valve to the closed position.

Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:1. An extended power faiIure (one hour or Ionger) causes ice

cubes in the ice storage bin to melt and freeze togetherand jam the dispenser mechanism.

2. The ice dispenser is not used frequently. Ice cubes willfreeze together in the bin and ]am the dispensermechanism. Remove the ice storage bin and shake toloosen the cubes.

Changing the Filter:

Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing thewater filter every 6 - 9 months normally will ensure the highestpossible water quality. The Filter Status light will turn red after400 gallons of water has flowed through the ice and waterdispenser (some models). Also, if the filter has been in arefrigerator that has not been in use for awhile (during movingfor example), change the filter before reinstalling the refrigerator.

The dispenser system will also operate without filtration (withfilter cartridge removed).

To change filter:

It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to change the filter.

1. Open freezer door and leave open until filter change iscomplete.

2. Set ice maker wire signal arm to the OFF (up) position(See illustration on page 10).

3. Hold filter cup firmly, and unscrew towards left (Somewater could leak out as you remove cup. This is normal.).Filter cartridge should come down with cup. If cartridgeremains in housing, pull down gently, while twisting filterback and forth.

4. Rinse out cup under running water.

5. The large o-ring that seals the filter system sets in the o-ring groove down inside the cup. Should the o-ring fall outduring filter cartridge replacement, simply place Jtback inthe groove prior to screwing the cup back in place. Ifthe o-ring becomes damaged, you will need to order onefrom the Consumer Assistance Center.

6. Discard old filter cartridge.

7. Remove new filter cartridge from packaging. Place in cup.The end with the small o-ring should be up, out of the cup.

FOODSTORAGEmDEAS

Fresh Food Storage

,, The fresh food compartment should be kept between 34 °F and 40° F with an optimum temperature of 37 ° R

,, Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This reducesthe circulation of air around the food and results in unevencooling.

Fruits and Vegetables

,, Storage in the crisper drawers traps moisture to helppreserve the fruit and vegetable quality for longer timeperiods.

Meat

,, Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely soleakage and contamination of other foods or surfacesdoes not occur.

Frozen Food Storage

,, The freezer compartment should be kept at 0° F or lower.

,, A freezer operates most efficiently when it is at least 2/3full.

Packaging Foods for Freezing

_, To minimize dehydration and quality deterioration, usealuminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags or airtightcontainers. Force as much air out of the packages aspossible and seal them tightly. Trapped air can cause foodto dry out, change color, and develop an off-flavor (freezerburn).

,, Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable freezer wrapprior to freezing.

,, Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed.

Loading the Freezer

,, Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at onetime. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of freezing,and can raise the temperature of frozen foods.

,, Leave a space between the packages, so cold air cancirculate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly aspossible.

_, Avoid storing hard-to-freeze foods such as ice cream andorange iuice on the freezer door shelves. These foods arebest stored in the freezer interior where the temperaturevaries less.

A. Evaporator

The flow of refrigerant through the evaporator maycreate a boiling or gurgling sound.

B. Evaporator Fan

You may hear air being forced through the refrigeratorby the evaporator fan.

C. Defrost Heater

During defrost cycles, water dripping onto the defrostheater may cause a hissing or sizzling sound. Afterdefrosting, a popping sound may occur.

Do Automatic ice Maker

If your refrigerator is equipped with an automatic icemaker, you will hear ice cubes falling into the ice bin.

E. Cold Control & Automatic Defrost Control

These parts can produce a snapping or clicking soundwhen turning the refrigerator on and off.

F. CondenserFan

You may hear air being forced through the condenserby the condenser fan.

G. Compressor

Modern, high-efficiency compressors operate muchfaster than older models. The compressor may have ahigh-pitched hum or puisating sound.

H. WaterValve

If your refrigerator is equipped with an automatic icemaker, you will hear a buzzing sound as the watervalve opens to fill the ice maker during each cycle.
