To Dispense Water
- Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser paddle (A). Hold the glass close to the water dispenser spout (B) to ensure that the water dispenses into the glass.
- Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
IMPORTANT: The small tray at the bottom of the dispenser is designed to catch small spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray. To empty and clean the tray, push down on the back of the removable tray and pull out.
To Dispense Ice
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when the dispenser paddle (C) is pressed. For instructions on turning off the ice maker, refer to the "Ice Maker and Storage Bin" section in the Owner's Manual.
Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. 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.
Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer:
- Crushed: Press the button for crushed ice.
- Cubed: Press the button for cubed ice.
- Press the or Ice button to select the desired type of ice.
- Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle (C). Hold the glass close to the ice guide (D) to ensure that the ice dispenses into the glass.
WARNING: Cut Hazard. Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice. Failure to do so can result in cuts.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the paddle to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
