crushed ice or cubes before dispensing water• A drip tray located at the base of the dispenser catches small spills and allows them to evaporate. This drip tray is removable and dishwasher safe. Do not pour water and

excess ice in this area because there is no drain.

ICE AND WATER DISPENSER FEATURES

The ice and water dispenser conveniently dispenses chilled water, and ice cubes or crushed ice, depending on the model To operate the ice dispenser, select the ice option desired using the touchpad. Press a glass against the dispensing paddte

as far up as possible to catch aII ice. To stop dispensing ice, puII glass away from dispensing paddle. Do not remove the glass until the ice has completely dispensed. (Complete instructions for the dispenser operation are attached to the inside of the freezer door.)

How the Water Dispenser Works

The water tank, Iocated behind the drawers in the refrigerator compartment, automaticaIly fills as water is dispensed. For proper dispenser operation, the recommended supply water pressure should fall between 20 psi and 100 psi.

After the refrigerator is connected to the water supply, filI the water tank by drawing one glass of water. It may take about 11/2minutes after activating the dispenser paddle before water begins to flit this first glass. Continue flushing the system for 3 minutes to rid the tank and pIumbing connections of any impurities. The water dispenser has a built in shutoff device that wiIl stop the water flow after 3 minutes of continuous use. Simply release the dispenser paddle to reset the shutoff

mechanism.

How the Ice Dispenser Works

The ice maker and container are Iocated in the top of the freezer compartment. After the

refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled for severaI hours, the ice maker can begin making ice within 24 hours. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle two or three times before making a full tray of ice. Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's On/Off power switch. Press the switch to the "O" position to turn it Off and press it

to the "F position to turn it On. With no usage it wilt take approximately 2 days to fill the ice

container. The ice maker also has a built-in wire signaI arm,which automatically stops ice production when the ice bin isfuIL This signat arm should not be used to manuaIty stop the

ice maker. Because of new plumbing connections, the first production of ice cubes may be discoIored

or have an odd fIavor. These should be discarded until the cubes made are free of discoIoration and taste.

ICE DISPENSER TIPS

• Ice cubes stored too long may devetop an odd flavor. Empty the ice container and ensure that the ice maker's On/Off power switch is turned On (set to the "F position). The ice maker will then produce more ice.

• OccasionaIty shake the ice container to keep ice separated.

• Keep the ice maker's On/Off power switch turned Off (set to the "O_position) until the refrigerator is connected to the water

supply or whenever the water supply is turned off.

* If a Iarge quantity of ice is needed at one time, it is best to remove cubes directly from the ice container. ° The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating:

* Motor running • Ice Ioosening fromtray , Ice dropping into ice container • Running water , Water vaIve opening or closing

• Turn Off the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and during vacations.

, Ifthe ice maker will be turned off for a long period of time, you should aIso turn off the water supply vaIve.

Fresh Food Storage

• The fresh food compartment shouId be kept between 34° F and 40° F with an optimum temperature of 37° E

• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves.This reduces the circulation of air around the food and resuIts in uneven cooling.

Fruits and Vegetables

• Storage in the crisper drawers traps moisture to hetp preserve the fruit and vegetabIe quaIity for longer time periods.

Meat

• Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely so leakage and contamination of other foods or surfaces does 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 2/3 fuIL

Packaging Foods for Freezing

• To minimize dehydration and quatity deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags or airtight containers.

Force as much air out of the packages as possible and seaI them tightly. Trapped air can cause food to dry out,

change color, and deveIop an off-flavor (freezer burn).

• Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable freezer wrap prior to freezing.

• Do not refreeze meat that has compIetety thawed.

Loading the Freezer

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

• Leave a space between the packages, so coId air can circulate freety, atlowing food to freeze as quickty as possible.

• Avoid storing hard-to-freeze foods such as ice cream and orange juice on the freezer door shelves.These foods are best stored in the freezer interior where the temperature varies Iess.

ENERGY SAVING IDEAS

* Locate the refrigerator in the cooIest part ofthe room, outof direct sunlight,

and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not pIace the refrigerator

next to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven, or dishwasher. If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation

between the two appliances will help the refrigerator operate more

efficiently.

° Level the refrigerator so that the doors close tightIy. ° Refer to this Use & Care Manual for the suggested temperature controI

settings.

° Periodic cleaning of the condenser wilI help the refrigerator run more

efficientIy. See the Care and Cleaning Charton page 19.

° Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air vents. Doing so causes

the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy.

° Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the

refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.

° Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many

items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possibIe.

UNDERSTANDING THE SOUNDSYOU MAY HEAR

Your new high-efficiency refrigerator may make unfamiliar sounds.These are aII normal sounds and soon will become

famiIiar to you.They atso indicate your refrigerator is operating

as designed. Hard surfaces, such as vinyt or wood floors, walls, and kitchen cabinets may make sounds more

noticeable. Listed below are descriptions of some of the most common sounds you may hear, and what is causing them.

A. Evaporator

The flow of refrigerant through the evaporator may

create a boiling or gurgling sound.

B. Evaporator Fan

You may hear air being forced through the refrigerator by the evaporator fan.

C. Defrost Heater

During defrost cycles, water dripping onto the defrost heater may cause a hissing or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a popping sound may occur.

D. Automatic Ice Maker

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

E. Cold Control & Automatic Defrost Control

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

K Condenser Fan

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

G. Compressor

Modern, high-efficiency compressors operate much

faster than cider models. The compressor may have a

high-pitched hum or puIsating sound.

H. Water Valve

If your refrigerator is equipped with an automatic ice maker, you will hear a buzzing sound as the water

vatve opens to fill the ice maker during each cycle.

w_te_sup__ mm_d ate

L Drain Pan (not removable)

You may hear water running intothe drain pan during

the defrost cycle.

J. Condenser

May create minimal sounds from forced air.

K. Motorized Damper

May produce a Iight humming or clicking during operation.

Keep your refrigerator and freezer clean to prevent odor build-up. Wipe up any spilts immediately and clean both sections at

least twice a year. Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cteaners or strong aIkaline soIutions on any surface. Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher. Always unplug the electrical power cord from the wall

outlet before cleaning.
