How the Water Dispenser Works
The water tank, located behind the refrigerator compartment, automatically fills as water is dispensed, For 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 fiii 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 wiii stop the water flow after 3 minutes of continuous use, Simply release the dispenser paddle to reset the shutoff
mechanism,
ChemicaJs from a maffunctioning softener can damage the ice maker. If the ice maker is Connected
to soft water, ensure that the softener is maintained and working properly.
How the ice Dispenser Works
The ice maker and container are located in the top of the freezer compartment. After the
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
or three times before making a full tray of ice. ice production is controlled by the ice maker's
On/Off power switch. Press the switch to the "0" position to turn it Off and press it to the '1"
position to turn it On, With no usage it wiii take approximately 2 days to fiii the ice container,
The ice maker also has a built-in wire signal arm,which automatically stops ice production
when the ice bin is full, This signal arm should not be used to manually stop the ice maker,
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,
iCE DmSPENSER TIPS
o ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor. Empty the ice container and ensure that the ice maker's On/Off
power switch is turned On (set to the '1" position). The ice maker will then produce more ice.
o Occasionally shake the ice container to keep ice separated.
Keep the ice maker's On/Off power switch turned Off (set to the "0" position) until the refrigerator is connected to the water
supply or whenever the water supply isturned off.
mMPORTANT:The ice maker b turned On at the factory so itcan work as soon as you install your refrigerator If you
cannot connect a water supply, turn the On/Off switch to the Off ('I0!!) position. Otherwise, the ice makeCs valve
may be noisy when it atternpts to Operate without water,
if the d!spens!ng paddJe is pushed for more than 8 minutes, th e dispenser mOtOr may overload
and stop.The overload protector will reset automatically after 3 or 4 minutes.
o if a large quantity of ice is needed at one time, it is best to remove cubes directly from the ice container.
o The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating:
• ice dropping into ice container o
Water valve opening or closing
o Turn Off the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and during vacations,
o if the ice maker will be turned off for a long period of time, you should also turn off the water supply valve,
