Important Facts About Your Dispenser
Do not add ice from trays or bags to the storage drawer. It
may not crush or dispense well.
Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of narrow glasses.
Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause the door in the
chute to freeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute, poke it
through with a wooden spoon.
Beverages and foods should not be quick-chilled in the ice
storage drawer. Cans, bottles or food packages in the storage
drawer may cause the icemaker or auger to jam.
To keep dispensed ice from missing the glass, put the glass
close to, but not touching, the dispenser opening.

Door Alarm
To set the alarm, press the DOOR ALARM pad. The
indicator light will illuminate. This alarm will sound if either
door is open for more than 2 minutes. The beeping stops
when you close the door.
Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you
selected CUBED ICE. This happens occasionally when a few
cubes accidentally get directed to the crusher.
After crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from the
chute.
Sometimes a small mound of snow will form on the door in
the ice chute. This condition is normal and usually occurs
when you have dispensed crushed ice repeatedly. The snow
will eventually evaporate.
