Water and Ice Dispensers

IMPORTANT:

■ Allow 3 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 either the

refrigerator door or freezer drawer is open.

Flush the Water System

Air in the water dispensing system can cause the water dispenser

to drip. After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or

replacing the water filter, flush the water system.

Flushing the water dispensing system forces air from the water

line and filter and prepares the water filter for use. Additional

flushing may be required in some households.

NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of

the dispenser.

1. Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water

dispenser paddle for 5 seconds.

2. Release the dispenser paddle for 5 seconds. Repeat steps 1

and 2 until water begins to flow.

3. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing

the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total

of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed.

Calibrate Measured Fill

Household water pressure may affect the accuracy of the

Measured Fill feature. So, for optimum performance of your water

dispenser, you must first calibrate Measured Fill.

IMPORTANT:

■ Flush the water system before calibrating Measured Fill.

■ For best results, calibration should be performed when water

is not being used in the house.

1. Place a sturdy measuring cup (1 cup [237 mL] size) on the

dispenser tray centered in front of the ice/water dispenser

paddle.

NOTE: Depending on your model, a measuring cup may be

provided.

2. Press and hold the OPTIONS and LOCK buttons at the same

time for 3 seconds. The words “Back” and “1 Cup” will

appear on the display screen. Also, the Calibrate Measured

Fill icon will illuminate and remain lit while the Measured Fill

feature is being calibrated.

NOTE: You may press ICE/WATER “Back” at any time to exit

calibration mode. The Calibrate Measured Fill icon will

disappear.

3. Press and release the ice/water dispenser paddle, as needed,

to dispense water to the 1 cup fill line.

NOTE: If overfilling or spilling occurs, discard the water and

press ICE/WATER “Back” to restart the calibration process.
