AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER

After the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, move the wire lever arm on the icemaker into the down (ON) position to start its operation.The icemaker will fill with water when the freezer reaches the proper temperature. It may be 8 to 12 hours before the icemaker furnishes any usable ice cubes.

Discard all the cubes from the first two or three batches made.These initial ice cubes may be irregularly shaped, discolored, or contain impurities from the new water supply piping.

When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for several cubes to be joined together at the ends. They can easily be broken apart. The icemaker will continue to make ice until the supply of ice cubes raises the wire lever arm,shutting the icemaker off.

To manually stop the operation of the icemaker, move the wire lever arm into the up (OFF) position.

Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of the icemaker.

• buzzing of the water valve

• running of the water as the tray fills

• rattling of the ice cubes falling into an empty ice bin.

If the ice is not used frequently, the ice cubes will become cloudy, shrink, stick together and taste stale. Empty the ice storage bin periodically and wash it in lukewarm water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

ICE BIN

To check the ice level or gain access to the ice bin, lift the door on the bin.

TO REMOVE THE BIN:

•Turn off the icemaker by moving the

icemaker wire lever arm up to the OFF position.

•While holding the top edge of the ice bin, grasp the lower edge of the ice bin and pull down to release the latch, then pull ice bin out.

•Reverse procedure to replace the ice bin.

•Turn the icemaker on by lowering the wire lever arm.

Note:

Beverages and foods should NOT be placed in the ice storage bin for quick chilling.These items can block the wire lever arm,causing the icemaker to malfunction.

To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe the following:

• Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.This will help protect you from possible injury. It will also prevent interference with moving parts of the ejector mechanism and the heating element that releases the cubes.

• Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may be discolored, usually appearing with a green-bluish hue.The cause of this unusual discoloration can be a combination of factors such as certain characteristics of local waters, household plumbing and the accumulation of copper salts in an inactive water supply line which feeds the ice maker. Continued consumption of such discolored ice cubes may be injurious to health. If such discoloration is observed, discard the ice cubes and contact your dealer to purchase and install a water line filter.

•Water damage due to improper water connection may cause mold/mildew growth.

• Clean up water and ice spills to avoid personal injury and to prevent mold/mildew growth.

WARNING

AUTOMATIC ICE AND WATER DISPENSER

(SELECT MODELS)

Notes:

• When using the ice dispenser for the first time, discard the first two or three dozen cubes.

•When using the water dispenser for the first time, press the actuator pad for ten minutes to bleed the air from the water line. Discard the first five to six glasses of water dispensed. This will ensure pure and fresh water for drinking.

DISPENSING WATER

AND

ICE

To dispense ice or water, position a glass against the top portion of the actuator pad and press. Hold the glass up to the ice opening to avoid spills.

To stop dispensing, release the pressure on the actuator pad and hold the container in position momentarily to catch the last pieces of ice or the last drops of water. The ice delivery door will remain open for a short time. When it closes, a closing sound can be heard.

DISPENSER LIGHT

When the actuator pad is touched, the dispenser light automatically illuminates. To manually turn the light on, touch the

pad.

To turn the light off, touch the pad again.

DISPENSER

LOCK

To interrupt power to the water and ice dispenser so it cannot be used, touch the

pad 3 times within 10 seconds.

The lock pad is illuminated when the dispenser is locked. Touch the pad 3 times within 10 seconds again to unlock the ice and water service.

SPILL TRAY

DO NOT pour water into the Spill Tray

grille at the bottom of the dispenser area. This is a spill area, NOT a drain. Normal, small spills will evaporate. Larger spills should be wiped up with a soft cloth or sponge. The grille slides out for clean up. It is recommended to clean the spill area occasionally to prevent mineral deposits.

ICE AND WATER DISPENSING TIPS

• Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though cubed ice was selected. This happens occasionally when a few cubes are accidentally channeled into the crusher.

• Likewise, when changing from crushed ice to cubes, some crushed ice may be dispensed.This may also happen if irregular-sized cubes or ice chips are in the storage bin.

• If the “crushed” option is used frequently or exclusively, select the “cube” option occasionally to clear any crushed ice that may have built up in the chute.

•A slight pause may be noticed when dispensing crushed ice.This is normal because the ice is being channeled to the crusher. Crushed ice pieces will vary in size and shape.

• If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes may clump together and may need to be broken apart or discarded.

• Do not add ice to the storage bin which was not produced by the icemaker. It may not crush and/or dispense properly.

•Avoid operating the ice dispenser continuously for more than five minutes. Remove large quantities from the bin by hand.

•Water from the dispenser is not as cold as ice water.The first glass or two of water dispensed each time may be warmer than subsequent glasses.

•To avoid splashing, fill the glass with ice before adding water.

CRUSH,CUBE, WATER PADS

The control pads are located on the dispenser control panel.To select the desired function, touch the appropriate pad. When ice cubes, crushed ice or water pads are touched the selection is illuminated.

To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe the following:

• Do not put fingers, hands or any foreign object into dispenser opening.

•Do not use sharp objects to break ice.

• Do not dispense ice directly into thin glass, fine china or delicate crystal.

CAUTION

WATER FILTER

Notes:

• The filter bypass or water filter must be in place or no water or ice will be dispensed.

• DO NOT dispose of the filter bypass. It should be stored for future use, in the event that you choose to use the water and ice dispenser without a filter.

INITIAL FILTER CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION

FOOD PURCHASING, STORAGE & HANDLING GUIDELINES

TEMPERATURE

The fresh food compartment should be set in the range of 34° F (1° C) - 38° F (3° C), based on your preference.

The freezer compartment should be set at 0° F (-18° C) or below.

The best cooling occurs when the air is allowed to circulate freely around the food items. Do not overcrowd the refrigerator shelves.

EGGS AND DAIRY

Store eggs on the refrigerator shelf in their original carton.

Refrigerate eggs in the shell until you are ready to use them, do not allow them to warm up to room temperature prior to cooking.

Do not use cracked eggs. Do not purchase eggs if they are being

sold from the aisle, rather than a cooler. Follow the freshness dates printed on the

packaging when using dairy foods. Refrigerate dairy foods immediately after

purchase and after each use. Close cartons tightly after use to keep out

air and other food odors. Occasionally mold will develop on the

surface of hard cheeses (Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan, etc). Cut off at least an inch around and below the moldy area,keeping the knife out of the mold itself.

If soft cheese, cottage cheese, cheese slices or other cheese foods develop mold, do not save.

FRESH MEATS AND POULTRY

Leave meat and poultry in original store wrap before use (repeated handling can introduce bacteria into the product).

Store raw meats in sealed packages to prevent leaks and possible contamination of other foods and surfaces.

If not freezing fresh meats or poultry, store in the ClimateZone™ drawer set on the Meats setting.

Observe and follow all expiration dates for perishable items that are precooked or ready to eat.

LEFTOVERS

Refrigerate or freeze leftovers immediately. Perishable food should never be allowed to be out at room temperature for greater than 2 hours total.

Store leftovers in clean, shallow, tightly covered containers. The core of dense, large pieces of meat and poultry or deep pots of soup and stew take longer to reach a safe storage temperature. Shallow containers allow food to cool thoroughly more quickly. Cut large cuts of meat into slices of 3 inches (7.62 cm) or less and remove poultry from the bone before refrigerating. Divide soups and stews into smaller containers.

When reusing leftovers,reheat thoroughly. Heat up leftover sauces, soups, and gravy quickly and boil for at least one minute. Heat other leftovers to 165° F (74° C).

FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

Store in a ClimateZone™ storage drawer set on the appropriate setting (Produce or Citrus, see page 8).

Sort fresh produce items before storage and use bruised or soft items first. Discard those showing signs of decay.

Handle fresh produce with care. Even a minor bruise can promote decay and result in premature quality loss.

Wrap odorous foods such as onions and cabbage.

Wait to wash and cut up fresh fruits and vegetables until right before use.Washing can strip away natural protection while cutting initiates enzyme activity. Both factors can have a negative effect upon shelf life.

Wash all fresh fruits and vegetables at the time of use, even those with a peel or rind that will not be eaten. This helps prevent bacteria from the outside being transferred to the edible inside during cutting.

FROZEN FOOD STORAGE

Do not refreeze items that have completely thawed.

The freezer section will operate more efficiently when it is loaded. If there are not enough food items to fill the freezer at least

⁄3 full, use bags of ice or milk

cartons filled with water to fill the freezer up to this level.

PON

OURRETURN

After a Short Vacation or Absence:

For models with automatic ice makers or dispensers:

• Restore the water supply.

If your refrigerator has a dispenser and there is any possibility that the temperature can drop below freezing where the refrigerator is located, the water supply system (including the water tank and the water valve) must be drained by a qualified servicer.

CAUTION

For short vacations or absences (three months or less):

1. Remove all perishables.

2. If no one will be checking in on the refrigerator during your absence, remove all frozen items also.

3. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

• Shut off the water supply to the

ice maker at least one day ahead of time.

•After the last load of ice drops,

raise the wire shut off arm to the OFF position.

• Empty the ice bin.

4. If the room temperature will drop below 55° F (13° C), follow the instructions for longer absences.

For long vacations, absences (more than three months) OR if the room temperature will drop below 55° F (13° C):

1. Remove food.

PREPARING FOR VACATION

• Monitor water connection for 24 hours and correct leaks if necessary.

• Run 10-15 glasses of water from the dispenser to flush out the system.

• Restart the ice maker.

• Discard at least the first three ice harvests.

After a Long Vacation or Absence:

• If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, restore the water supply.

•Turn power to refrigerator back ON and reset controls (see pages 5 and

6).

• Monitor water connection for 24 hours and correct leaks, if necessary.

For dispenser models, run water through the dispenser for at least three minutes with the filter bypass in place, then install water filter.

• After installing the water filter, run water through the dispenser continuously for at least two minutes,or until water runs steady. Initially you may notice a one to two minute delay in water dispersal as the internal tanks fills.

• Restart the ice maker.

• Discard ice produced within the first 12 hours (at least the first three harvests).

Recent improvements in refrigeration design may introduce sounds in your new refrigerator that were not noticed in earlier models. These improvements were made to create a refrigerator that will preserve food better, run more energy efficiently, and perform quieter overall. Because new refrigerator designs run quieter than past models you may start to detect sounds that were actually present in your older model but were typically masked by the refrigerator’s higher sound levels. Many of these sounds are normal. The following are some of the normal sounds your new refrigerator may make:

REFRIGERANT FLOW: The flow of the cooling fluid in your freezer area may cause gurgling or quiet knocking sounds when the refrigerator cycles on or off.

WATER VALVES: You may detect a slight buzzing sound under the refrigerator when water is requested from the ice dispenser or when the ice maker needs water to make ice.

CABINET LEVELING: An unlevel cabinet may cause rattles and vibration noises.

AIRFLOW SOUNDS: There are a number of fans in the refrigerator that make airflow sounds when in operation. The freezer fan circulates cool air throughout the refrigerator. The refrigerator circulating fan helps keep that compartment's temperature more uniform. The condenser fan on top of your refrigerator is utilized to remove the heat generated by the refrigeration system. Lastly, the ClimateZone™ compartments circulate air to maintain optimum temperatures.

COMPRESSOR: The compressor on this unit has a variable speed motor. This variability allows the system to adjust to different usage needs.

This will introduce speed change sounds and some higher pitched humming sounds that are normal for the operation of this type of compressor.

ICE MAKER: The cabinet will occasionally generate a rattling sound when ice cubes are ejected into the freezer ice bin. You may also detect the motor that is ejecting that ice. These are normal sounds necessary for ice making.

CONTROL SWITCHES: In the electronics control area there are numerous control switches that make a quiet clicking sound when you use your refrigerator or during some of the normal system operations.
