To remove: I,ilt up the access door to reach the icemaker.
Set the icemaker power switch to the O (off) position. With the access door closed, support
the storage bin at the bottom while slightly lilting. Pull bin straight ()tit.
To replace: Slide the bin back tmtil the tab on the bin locks into the slot on the shelf. If the bin
does not go all the way back, remove it and rotate the drive mechanism 1/4 turn. Then
push the bin back again.
Do not add ice fl'om trax:s or bags to the
storage bin. It may not c_ush or dispense well.
Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of
narrow or extra-tall glasses. Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause the door in the chute to fl'eeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute, poke it through with a wooden spoon.

After crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from the chute.
SollletillleS }1 IllO/lnd of snow will l[()I'Ill on
the door in the ice chute. This condition is normal and usually occm's when you have
dispensed crashed ice repeatedly. The snow
will eventually ewq)orate.
Beverages and toods should not be quick-chilled in the ice storage bin. Cans, bottles or food packages in the storage bin may cause the icemaker (7i"auger to jam.
To kee I) dispensed ice fl'om missing the glass, put the glass close to, but not touching, the dispenser opening.
Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you selected CUBES. This hal)pens occasionally when a few cubes accidentally get directed to the crusher.
Dispensed water is not ice cold. For colder water, simply add crushed ice or cubes
before dispensing water.
The first glass of water dispensed may be warmer than the ti)llowing ones. This is
noI'IIlal.
To eliminate drips on the spill shelf, tilt the ,glass in slightly when disl)ensing, water.

How it Works
The Climate Control feature is a system of dmnI)e_, a tim, a temI)eramre thermistor;
a heater and a specially designed tray. The Climate Control drawer can be used
to chill items quickl 5 thaw t0ods quickly or store items at their opfim um temperatures.
The drawer is tightly sealed to prevent the drawer's temperature ti'om causing temperature fluctuations in the rest of the reiiJgemto_:
SELECT TEMP_Use this teature to store items at their optimum temperatures.
The CITRUS setting will maintain a drawer temperature of 39-47°F by cycling a small
heater off and on as needed. The PRODUCE setting will maintain the drawer temperature
at 31-38°F by drawing in additional cold air as needed. The MF&T setting will maintain the drawer temperature at 27-37°F by drawing in
additional cold air as needed.
ILXPRESS CHILL_This fl_ature can be used to cool items in minutes, rather than hours. Extra cool air is circulated throughout the
drawer. Once the cycle is complete, the drawer will revert to the pre-set fi'esh fi)od teml)erature.
F_XPRESS THAW This teature thaws items in hours rather than da_:s. Food is gently
thawed in a cool environment by circulating
air throughout the drawer. Temperature is maintained in the drawer by cycling a small
heater off and on as needed. Once the thaw cycle is complete, the pan will automatically
at!just to a temperature of 27-37°F to store the
tood at its optimum temperature.
Climate Control Tray--Besides using the specially designed Climate Control tray when using the drawer, it can also be used as a chilled serving tray to kee I) toods cold.
NOTE: By turning the controls on the Climate Control drawer ott, the drawer can be used as a
standard sealed produce pan. The temperature inside the drawer will be the same as the flesh
tood compartment.
e_o_ CLIMATE CONTROL DRAWER

OPERATING SOUNDS
May be in defl'ost cycle when compressor does not operate fin" about 30 minutes.
Temperature control set at OFF.
If interior light is not on, reii'igerator may not be plugged in at
wall outlet.
The filse is blown/circuit breaker is tripped. Replace filse or reset the breaker.
Normal when refi'igerator is first plugged in. Writ 24 hours fin" the reli'igerator to completely cool down.
The new \_riable speed compressor is designed to rtm fi)r longer periods of time to oi)timize efliciencv and noise. You may notice the coml)ressor and/or tim speeds accelerate based upon door ol)enings
and/or increased fl)od loads.
You may hear the rims spinning at high speeds. This hai_pens when the reti'igerator is first plugged in, when the doors are opened
frequently or when a large amotmt of fl)od is added to the reii'igerator or fl'eezer compartments. The rims are helping to maintain the correct temperatures.
Door left open or package holding door open.
If either door is open fl)r over 3 minutes, you may hear the rims come on in order to cool the light.
Hot weather or frequent door openings. This is normal.
Temperatm'e controls set at the coldest setting. See Tempemlure

Refl'igerator is so quiet, that most of the time you will hear low or no operating noise.
Normal tan air flow--one tim blows cold air through the fl'esh food and fl'eezer compartments--another tim cools
the COill[)i'essoi" ill otor.
The rims change speeds in order to provide optimal cooling and energy savings.
These NORMAl, sotmds will also be heard fl'om time to time:
You may hear a whooshing or gm'gling sound when the doo_
close. This is due to pressm'e equalizing within the refrigerator.
A water dripping noise may occm" dm'ing the defrost cycle as ice
melts fl'om the evaporator and flows into the drain pan.
The flow of refl'igerant through the fl'eezer cooling coils may
make a gurgling noise like boiling water.
X,Vater dropping on the defl'ost heater can cause a sizzling,
i)oi)ping or buzzing sotmd during the defl'ost cycle.
You may hear cracking or poi)ping sotmds when the refl'igerator is
first plugged in or during/alter the defl'ost cvcle. This hal)pens as the refl'igerator cools to the correct temperatm'e.
Electronic dampers click open and closed to provide optimal
