Colder FREEZER
IMPORTANT:
• The refrigerator control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The freezer control adjusts the freezer
compartment temperature.
The displays normally show the actual temperatures inside
the refrigerator and freezer compartments. Sometimes,
temperatures may vary slightly in different areas of each
compartment. For example, frequently opening the door
allows air from the room to enter the compartment, exposing
door bins to room-temperature air. When reading the display,
keep in mind that it shows an average temperature for the
entire compartment. If you want to view the temperature you
set for the compartment rather than the actual temperature,
see "Viewing Set Points."

before dispensing ice.
For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This
may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise
from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size.
When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed
ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
To Dispense Ice:
1. If the ice storage bin is located on the door, remove the
temporary shield from underneath the ice storage bin. See
"Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
2. Press the button to select the desired type of ice.
Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice.
Failure to de so can result in cuts.
3.
Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser pad. Hold the
glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of the glass.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to
the pad in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
The On/Off switch is located on the top right-hand side of the
freezer compartment.
Toturn on the ice maker, slide the control to the ON (left) position.
To manually turn off the ice maker, slide the control to the OFF
(right) position.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The ice maker
sensors will automatically stop ice production, but the control will
remain in the ON (left) position.
REMEMBER:
• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of
the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the
ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener
chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker
and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot
be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating
properly and is well maintained.
• Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the storage
bin. This can cause damage to the ice container and the
dispenser mechanism.
• Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage
bin.
Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin
Hold the base of the storage bin with both hands and press
the release button to lift the storage bin up and out.
NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the
OFF (right) position when removing the storage bin. The
sensor cover ("flipper door") on the left wall of the freezer
stops the ice maker from producing ice if the door is open or
the storage bin is removed.
2. Replace the storage bin on the door and push down to make
sure it is securely in place.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction
may be used on disinfected waters that may contain
filterable cysts.
Water Filter Status Light (on some models)

If the filter is new:
You must press FILTER to view the filter's status. For a few
seconds, the status light will be blue and the display screen will
show what percentage of your filter's life remains.
If it is almost time to change the filter:
The status light will automatically illuminate and will remain on,
appearing yellow. The words "ORDER FILTER" will appear on the
display screen. Press FILTER to see what percentage of your
filter's life remains. You should order the appropriate replacement
filter. See "Accessories."
If it is time to change the filter:
The status light will remain on, changing to red. The words
"REPLACE FILTER" and "HOLD BUTTON TO RESET" will appear
on the display screen until the filter has been changed and the
status light has been reset.
To reset the water filter status light:
After changing the filter, reset the status light by pressing and
holding the FILTER button for 3 seconds. The status light will
blink red and change to blue, then turn off when the system is
reset.
Non-Indicator Water Filter (on some models)
If your refrigerator does not have the water filter status light, you
should change the water filter cartridge at least every 6 months
depending on your water quality and usage. If the water flow to
the water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably before
6 months have passed, replace the water filter more often.
Changing the Water Filter
1. Press the eject button to release the filter from the base grille.

NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water
will not be filtered. Simply insert the cap all of the way into the
base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.
5. Remove the protective covers from the O-rings. Be sure the
O-rings are still in place after the covers are removed.
6. Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop
back out when the filter is fully engaged.
7. Flush the water system. See "Water and Ice Dispensers."
REFRIGERATOR CARE
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor
transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
To Clean Your Refrigerator:
NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes,
concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing
petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or
gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh
cleaning tools.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
3.
Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
4.
There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal
home operating environments. If the environment is
particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in
the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to
3 months to ensure maximum efficiency.
If you need to clean the condenser:
Remove the base grille.
Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille,
the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area
of the condenser.
• Replace the base grille when finished.
5.

The refrigerator will not operate
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Power cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet.
Is outlet working? Plug in a lamp to see if the outlet is
working.
Household fuse blown or circuit breaker tripped? Replace
the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues,
call an electrician.
Are controls on? Make sure the refrigerator controls are on.
See "Using the Controls."
New installation? Allow 24 hours following installation for the
refrigerator to cool completely.
NOTE: Adjusting the temperature controls to coldest setting will
not cool either compartment more quickly.
The motor seems to run too much
Your new refrigerator may run longer than your old one due to its
high-efficiency compressor and fans. To maximize energy
efficiency, the compressor changes speed to provide just the
right amount of cooling as it is needed. Your refrigerator may run
as much as 100% of the time, but it will still use less energy than
an older refrigerator. You may notice that it runs more often when
the room is warm, a large amount of food is added to either
compartment, or the doors are opened often.
The refrigerator is noisy
Refrigerator noise has been reduced over the years. Due to this
reduction, you may hear intermittent noises from your new
refrigerator that you did not notice from your old model. Below
are listed some normal sounds with an explanation.
• Buzzing - heard when the water valve opens to fill the ice
maker
• Pulsating - fans/compressor adjusting to optimize
performance
• Rattling - flow of refrigerant, water line, or from items placed
on top of the refrigerator
• Sizzling/Gurgling - water dripping on the heater during
defrost cycle
• Popping - contraction/expansion of inside walls, especially
during initial cool-down
• Water running - may be heard when water melts during the
defrost cycle and runs into the drain pan
• Creaking/Cracking - occurs as ice is being ejected from the
ice maker mold.
The doors will not close completely
Check the following:
• Are food packages blocking the door open?
• Are all bins and shelves pushed back into the correct
positions?
The doors are difficult to open
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
• Are the gaskets dirty or sticky? Clean gaskets with mild
soap and warm water.
• Has the door been opened and closed within the last few
seconds? Wait at least 30 seconds to reopen the doors.
_T _ _ , _ _ " v. _ .....
Temperature is too warm
Check the following:
• Are the air vents blocked in either compartment?
• Are the door(s) opened often?
• Has a large amount of food just been added to the
refrigerator or freezer?
• Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding conditions?
There is interior moisture buildup
NOTE: Some moisture is normal.
• Are the air vents blocked in the refrigerator?
• Are the door(s) opened often?
• Is the room humid?
• Are the controls set correctly for the surrounding conditions?
• Was an automatic self-defrost cycle completed?
Items in meat pan/crisper are freezing
The temperature inside the meat pan/crisper may become too
cold, especially when using some additional control panel
features. Adjust the meat pan control to the closed setting.
The ice maker is not producing ice or not enough ice
• Is the ice maker wire shutoff arm or switch (depending on
models) in the OFF position?
• Is the water line shutoff valve to the refrigerator turned on?
• Has the ice maker just been installed? Is the freezer
temperature cold enough to produce ice? Wait 24 hours
after ice maker hookup for ice production to begin. Allow
3 days after ice production begins to completely fill ice
container.
• Does the ice maker mold have water in it or has no ice
been produced? Make sure your refrigerator has been
connected to a water supply and the supply shutoff valve is
turned on.
• Has a large amount of ice just been removed? Allow
24 hours for ice maker to produce more ice.
• Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? The
filter may be clogged or installed incorrectly.
• Is an ice cube jammed in the ice maker ejector arm?
For models with an interior ice bin, remove the ice from the
ejector arm with a plastic utensil.
• Is a reverse osmosis water filtration system connected to
your cold water supply? See "Water Supply Requirements"
in either the Installation Instruction booklet or the Use & Care
Guide.
The ice cubes are hollow or small
This is an indication of low water pressure.
Check the following:
• Is the water shutoff valve fully open?
• Are there kinks in the water lines that could restrict water
flow?
• If you are using a water filter, remove the filter and operate the
dispenser. If water flow increases, the filter is clogged or
incorrectly installed.
• Is a reverse osmosis water filtration system connected to
your cold water supply? See "Water Supply Requirements"
in either the Installation Instructions or the Use & Care Guide.
• If you still have questions regarding your water pressure, call
a licensed, qualified plumber.
Off-taste, odor or gray color in the ice
Check the following:
• Are the plumbing connections new, causing discolored or off-
flavored ice?
• Have the ice cubes been stored too long?
• Does the freezer and ice bin need to be cleaned?
• Has food in the freezer or refrigerator been wrapped
properly?
• Does the water contain minerals (such as sulfur)? A filter
may need to be installed to remove the minerals.
• Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? Gray or
dark discoloration in ice indicates that the water filtration
system needs additional flushing.
