The Dispenser Lock
The dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to avoid
unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the refrigerator,
to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the
controls and dispenser paddles. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice
Maker and Storage Bin.”
■ Press and hold LOCK for 3 seconds to lock the dispenser.
■ Press and hold LOCK a second time to unlock the dispenser.
The display screen indicates when the dispenser is locked.
Ice Maker and Ice Storage Bin
(on some models)
IMPORTANT: To avoid low ice production and poor quality ice,
flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See
“Water Dispenser.”
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced. Allow 2 to 3 days for the
storage bin to fill completely following installation.
■ The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals
(such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to
poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided,
make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well
maintained.
■ If the ice in the storage bin clumps together, break up ice
using a plastic utensil and discard. Do not use anything sharp
to break up the ice. This can cause damage to the ice bin and
the dispenser mechanism.
■ Do not store anything in the ice storage bin.
Ice Production Rate
■ The ice maker should produce approximately 3 lbs (1.4 kg) of
ice per day under normal operation.
■ To increase ice production, select the increased ice
production feature from the Options menu on the control
panel. See “Using the Control(s).”
Style 1 - Ice Maker in the Refrigerator (on some models)
The ice maker is located on the left-hand side of the refrigerator
compartment ceiling. Ice cubes are ejected into the ice storage
bin, located on the left-hand refrigerator door.
Turn the Ice Maker On/Off

compartment to open the door.
2. Turn on the ice maker by moving the switch to the (left) ON
position.
NOTES:
■ To manually turn off the ice maker, move the control to the
OFF (right) position.
■ Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The sensor will
automatically stop ice production if the storage bin is full,
if the door is open or the storage bin is removed. The
control will remain in the ON (left) position.
3. Close the ice compartment door.
Remove and Replace the Ice Storage Bin
■ Remove the ice storage bin by inserting your fingers into the
hole at the base of the bin and squeezing the latch to release
the bin from the compartment. Lift the storage bin up and pull
it straight out.
