WATER AND ICE DISPENSERS
(ON SOME MODELS)
IMPORTANT:
After connecting the refrigerator to a water
■
source or replacing the water filter, 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) until a total
of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed. This
will flush air from the filter and water
dispensing system, and prepare the water
filter for use. Additional flushing may be
A
required in some households.
NOTE: 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 dispensing system will not operate
■
when the freezer door is open.
Depending on your model, your water and
■
ice dispensers may have one or more of
the following features: a dispenser tray, a
special light that turns on when you use
the dispenser, or a lock option to avoid
unintentional dispensing.
