Convertible Drawer Temperature Control
The control can be adjusted to properly chill meats or vegetables.
The air inside the pan is cooled to avoid “spot” freezing and can
be set to keep meats at the National Livestock and Meat Board
recommended storage temperatures of 28° to 32°F (-2° to 0°C).
The convertible vegetable/meat drawer control comes preset at
the lowest meat setting.
To store meat:
Set the control to one of the three MEAT settings to store meat at
its optimal storage temperature.
To store vegetables:
Set the control to VEG to store vegetables at their optimal storage
temperatures.
NOTE: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the left (less
cold). Remember to wait 24 hours between adjustments.
Crisper Humidity Control
(on some models)
You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed
crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between LOW and HIGH.
LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.
HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.
Water and Ice Dispensers
(on some models)
Depending on your model, your water and ice dispensers may
have one or more of the following features: a rotating water
dispenser faucet and pull-out tray, a special light that turns on
when you use the dispenser, or a lock option to avoid
unintentional dispensing.
NOTES:
■ The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door
is open.
■ After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the
water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the
water dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for
5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water
begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the
dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) for an additional
5 minutes. This will flush air from the filter and water
dispensing system. Additional flushing may be required in
some households. As air is cleared from the system, water
may spurt out of the dispenser.
■ Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water.
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a
fresh supply.
To Dispense Water:
1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser pad OR
place the glass below the water dispenser and press the
WATER button.
NOTE: While dispensing water and for 5 seconds after
dispensing has stopped, the digital display will show how
much water has been dispensed. The default unit is ounces.
To switch to cups or liters, press the UNITS button before
dispensing.
2. Remove the glass OR release the button to stop dispensing.
Rotating Faucet and Pull-out Tray (on some models)
Your dispenser may include a rotating water faucet and a small
pull-out tray at the bottom of the dispenser.
■ The faucet rotates up to 180° to allow for easy dispensing into
large containers. Rotate it by pressing PUSH HERE, located
on the right-hand side of the faucet as shown.
NOTE: When using the dispenser with the faucet rotated, do
not use the water dispenser pad. Only use the WATER button
to dispense. Dispensing by pressing the container against the
water dispenser pad may result in unintentional spilling.
■ The tray can be pulled out approximately 2" (5.08 cm) to
better support large containers. It is designed to catch small
spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray.
NOTE: The tray can be removed from the dispenser and
carried to the sink to be emptied or cleaned. Pull the tray out
until it hits the stop, then gently lift up on the back of the tray
and slide it out the rest of the way.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when
the dispenser pad is pressed. The dispensing system will not
operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker,
see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”
Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by
pressing the CUBED or CRUSHED button. 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.
