proper dispenser operation, the recommended supply water pressure should fall between 20 psi and 100 psi
Water pressure must not exceed !00 Ibs, Excessive pressure may cause water filter to malfunction,
After the refrigerator is connected to the water supply, fill the water tank by drawing one glass of water, It may take about
11/2minutes after activating the dispenser paddle before water begins to fill this first glass, Continue flushing the system
for 3 minutes to rid the tank and plumbing connections of any impurities, The water dispenser has a built in shutoff device
that will stop the water flow after 3 minutes of continuous use. Simply release the dispenser paddle to reset the shutoff
mechanism.

to soft water, ensure that the softener is maintained and working properJy.
How the ice Dispenser Works

refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled for several hours, the ice maker can begin
making ice within 24 hours Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle two
t or three times before making a full tray of ice To begin ice production, lower the wire signal
arm to the down or ON position With no usage it will take approximately 2 days to fill the
ice container The ice maker turns off automatically when the ice container becomes full To
Signal Arm
- stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks, and locks in the "up" or OFF
position,
The ice maker produces 4 to 6 pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions,
Ice is produced at a rate of 8 cubes every 75 to 90 minutes,
Because of new plumbing connections, the first production of ice cubes may be discolored
or have an odd flavor, These should be discarded until the cubes made are free of discoloration and taste,
