Dispensing
Press ICE/WATER to toggle through the following choices in a
continuous loop:
■ Water (default) - Dispenses water
■ Cubed - Dispenses cubed ice.
■ Crushed - Dispenses crushed ice
NOTES:
■ The word “ICE” appears on the display screen when either
crushed or cubed ice is selected.
■ 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.
The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
■ Dispense at least 1 qt (1 L) of water every week to maintain a fresh
supply.
■ If the flow of water from the dispenser decreases, it could be
caused by low water pressure.
■ With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup of water. If
1 cup of water is dispensed in 8 seconds or less, the water
pressure to the refrigerator meets the minimum requirement.
■ If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup of water,
the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than
recommended. See “Water Supply Requirements” and
“Troubleshooting” for suggestions.
To Dispense Water (Standard):
1. Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
To Dispense Water (Measured Fill):
Measured Fill allows you to dispense a specified amount of water with
the touch of a few controls.
NOTE: The amount of water you select will be dispensed. Make sure
that the container is empty and can hold the entire volume. If ice is in
the container, you may need to adjust your selection.
1. Press MEASURED FILL to turn on the feature. When the feature is
on, the Measured Fill screen appears on the display.
Press ICE/WATER to manually turn off the Measured Fill feature.
NOTE: The dispenser will automatically turn off Measured Fill after
1 minute of inactivity.
2. You can dispense water by the ounce, cup or liter. The default unit
is ounces. To switch to cups or liters, press the LIGHT button.
Default, minimum, and maximum volumes are listed below.
3. Press LOCK or OPTIONS to adjust the water volume as desired.
The LOCK control increases the volume, and the OPTIONS
control lowers the volume.
NOTE: Most coffee cups (commonly 4 to 6 oz [118 to 177 mL] per
cup) are not the same size as a measuring cup (8 oz [237 mL]). You
may need to adjust the volume to avoid unintentionally overfilling
coffee cups.
4. To dispense water, press sturdy glass against the water dispenser
lever OR place the glass below the water dispenser and press the
MEASURED FILL button.
NOTE: While dispensing water, the digital display will count down
how much water remains to be dispensed, according to the volume
you selected. The flow of water will automatically stop once the
desired volume has been dispensed.
5. To stop dispensing before the selected volume has been
dispensed, remove the glass from the dispenser paddle OR press
MEASURED FILL a second time.
NOTE: If you stop dispensing before the desired volume has been
dispensed, the digital display will continue to show how much water
remains to be dispensed. The display will turn off after 1 minute of
inactivity.
6. To select a new volume or start dispensing the same volume
again, you must first finish dispensing the selected volume, or turn
off the Measured Fill feature (either by waiting 1 minute so it will
automatically turn off or by pressing ICE/WATER, under Back, to
manually turn it off) and then turn it back on.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin. To turn off the ice maker,
see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”
The dispenser may continue to make noise and ice may continue to
dispense for several seconds after releasing the dispenser button or
paddle.
IMPORTANT: If the ice cubes are hollow or have an irregular shape, it
could be because of low water pressure. See “Water Supply
Requirements” in the Installation Instructions and Problem Solver.
To Clean the Ice Dispenser Chute:
Humidity causes ice to naturally clump together. Ice particles can build
up until the ice dispenser chute becomes blocked.
If ice is not dispensed regularly, it may be necessary to empty the ice
storage bin and clean the ice delivery chute, the ice storage bin and the
area beneath the storage bin every 2 weeks.
■ Remove the ice clogging the storage bin and delivery chute, using a
plastic utensil if necessary.
■ Clean the ice delivery chute and the bottom of the ice storage bin
using a warm, damp cloth, then dry thoroughly.
The Dispenser Light
Press LIGHT to toggle through the
following choices in a continuous loop:
OFF, ON and DIM.
The dispenser lights are LEDs that
cannot be changed. If it appears that your
dispenser lights are not working, see
“Problem Solver” for more information.
