14 OPERATION
Food Storage Tips
Wrap or store food in the freezer in airtight and
moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This
prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout
the freezer. For dated products, check date code to
ensure freshness.
Food How to
Butter or
Margarine
Keep opened butter in covered dish
or closed compartment in refrigerator.
When storing an extra supply, wrap in
freezer packaging and freeze.
Fish
Freeze fresh sh and shellsh if they
are not being eaten the same day
purchased. Eating fresh sh and
shellsh the same day purchased is
recommended.
Storing Frozen Food
Check a freezer guide or a reliable cookbook for
further information about preparing food for freezing
or food storage times.
Freezing
Your freezer will not quick-freeze a large quantity of
food. Do not put more unfrozen food into the freezer
than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3
pounds of food per cubic foot of freezer space).
Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate
around packages. Be careful to leave enough room
at the front so the door can close tightly.
Storage times will vary according to the quality and
type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used
(how airtight and moisture-proof) and the storage
temperature. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are
normal. This simply means that moisture in the food
and air inside the package have condensed, creating
ice crystals.
NOTE
• Allow hot foods to cool at room temperature for 30
minutes, and then package and freeze. Cooling hot
foods before freezing saves energy.
Packaging
Successful freezing depends on correct packaging.
When you close and seal the package, it must not
allow air or moisture in or out. If it does, you could
have food odor and taste transfer throughout the
freezer and could also dry out frozen food.
Packaging recommendations
• Rigid plastic containers with tight-tting lids
• Straight-sided canning/freezing jars
• Heavy-duty aluminum foil
• Plastic-coated paper
• Non-permeable plastic wraps
• Specied freezer-grade self-sealing plastic bags
Follow package or container instructions for proper
freezing methods.
Do not use
• Bread wrappers
• Non-polyethylene plastic containers
• Containers without tight lids
• Wax paper or wax-coated freezer wrap
• Thin, semi-permeable wrap

20 SMART FUNCTIONS
Smart Grid Function
When the freezer operates in Smart Grid mode, the
Smart Freezer function can control energy usage or
delay the operation of some functions to save energy
during peak usage periods.
• You can override the Smart Grid function any time
(using the Smart Grid button or application).
• To use the Smart Grid function, you need to register
your appliance with your electric utility company.
Smart Grid Application Features
Smart Saving_Demand Response
You can lower energy usage based on Demand
Response (DR) signals from the utility company.
If the freezer is operating in Smart Saving mode
according to the DR signal, you can see a pop up.
Seasonal Energy Savings
Lower energy usage based on time period.
Using the Smart Grid Function
This feature responds to notication events from your
utility company to run high energy consuming tasks
during off-peak periods when demand is lower. These
notication events are known as Demand Response
signals.
If the freezer receives a Demand Response signal
from the utility company, the freezer will turn on the
Grid LED on the freezer display and control its power
consumption according to the signal.
The freezer will respond to the signals received from
the utility company as long as product performance is
maintained.
If the freezer receives a Demand Response signal,
the freezer will operate in Delay Appliance Load
(DAL) or Temporary Appliance Load Reduction
(TALR) mode.
Delay Appliance Load (DAL)
The freezer responds to a DAL signal by providing a
moderate load reduction for the duration of the delay
period.
This mode controls functions that consume a lot of
energy such as adjusting the cooling system, running
the defrost cycle, and making ice.
• When the freezer operates in DAL mode, the Grid
LED is illuminated on the freezer display.
• DAL mode is automatically deactivated after the
period stipulated by the DAL signal (max. 4 hours)
or when you override the Smart Grid function.
Temporary Appliance Load Reduction
(TALR)
The freezer responds to a TALR signal by
aggressively reducing the load for a short time
period, typically 10 minutes. This mode reduces
energy consumption by stopping the compressor and
controlling the functions that consume a lot of energy
such as the defrost cycle and fan.
• When the freezer operates in TALR mode, the Grid
LED is illuminated on the freezer display.
• TALR mode is automatically deactivated after the
received duration (max. 10 minutes), or when you
override the Smart Grid function. The mode is
immediately deactivated and the freezer returns to
its normal state when the door is opened or closed,
or the dispenser is used.
Override Smart Grid Mode
To ignore the Demand Response signal from the
utility company and override the Smart Grid function,
push the Smart Grid button while the freezer is in
Smart Grid mode.
When you override the Smart Grid function, the
freezer ignores the Demand Response signal and
is no longer controlled by the utility company until
the next Demand Response signal is sent. You can
also override the Smart Grid function using the smart
phone app.

Ice & Water
Problem Possible Cause Solutions
Icemaker is
not making
enough ice.
Demand exceeds ice storage
capacity.
The icemaker will produce approximately 70-184 cubes
in a 24 hour period.
House water supply is not
connected, valve is not turned on
fully, or valve is clogged.
Connect the freezer to a cold water supply with adequate
pressure and turn the water shutoff valve fully open. If
the problem persists, it may be necessary to contact a
plumber.
Water lter has been exhausted.
Replacing the water lter is recommended:
Approximately every six months.
When the water lter indicator turns on.
When the water dispenser output decreases.
When the ice cubes are smaller than normal.
Low house water supply pressure.
The water pressure must be between 20 and 120 psi on
models without a water lter and between 40 and 120 psi
on models with a water lter. If the problem persists, it
may be necessary to contact a plumber.
Reverse Osmosis ltration system
is used.
Reverse osmosis ltration systems can reduce the
water pressure below the minimum amount and result
in icemaker issues. (Refer to the Connecting the Water
Line section.)
Tubing connecting freezer to house
supply valve is kinked.
The tubing can kink when the freezer is moved during
installation or cleaning resulting in reduced water ow.
Straighten or repair the water supply line and arrange it
to prevent future kinks.
Doors are opened often or for long
periods of time.
If the doors of the unit are opened often, ambient air
will warm the freezer which will prevent the unit from
maintaining the set temperature. Lowering the freezer
temperature can help, as well as not opening the doors
as frequently.
Doors are not closed completely.
If the doors are not properly closed, ice production will be
affected. See the "Doors will not close correctly or pop
open" section in Parts & Features Troubleshooting for
more information.
The temperature setting for the
freezer is too warm.
The recommended temperature for the freezer
compartment for normal ice production is 0°F. If the
freezer temperature is warmer, ice production will be
affected.

Ice has bad taste or
odor.
Water supply contains
minerals such as sulfur.
A water lter may need to be installed to eliminate taste
and odor problems. NOTE: In some cases, a lter may
not help. It may not be possible to remove all minerals/
odor/taste in all water supplies.
Icemaker was recently
installed.
Ice that has been stored for too long will shrink, become
cloudy, and may develop a stale taste. Throw away old
ice and make a new supply.
The food has not been stored
properly in the compartment.
Rewrap the food. Odors may migrate to the ice if food is
not wrapped properly.
The interior of the freezer
needs to be cleaned.
See the Maintenance section for more information.
The ice storage bin needs to
be cleaned.
Empty and wash the bin (discard old cubes). Make sure
that the bin is completely dry before reinstalling it.
Icemaker is making
too much ice.
Icemaker shutoff (arm/ sensor)
is obstructed.
Empty the ice bin. If your icemaker is equipped with an
ice shutoff arm, make sure that the arm moves freely. If
your icemaker is equipped with the electronic ice shutoff
sensor, make sure that there is a clear path between the
two sensors. Reinstall the ice bin and wait 24 hours to
conrm proper operation.
