							21Automatic Ice & Water Dispenser
Using The Ice Dispenser After Installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the water supply system as
described earlier. Air in new plumbing lines can result in two or three empty ice
maker cycles. Furthermore, if the system is not flushed, the first ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor.
Turning The Ice Dispenser On And Off
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker’s On/Off
power switch.
 To access the On/Off power switch, slide ice
cream shelf straight out. 
Press the switch to the “O” position
to turn it Off and press to the “I” position to turn it On.
Ice Dispenser Tips
• Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor.
Empty the ice container as explained on the next
page.
• Occasionally shake the ice container to keep ice separated.
• If your refrigerator is not connected to a water supply or the water supply is
turned off, turn off the ice maker by pressing the On/Off switch.
• If you need a large quantity of ice at one time, it is best to get cubes directly
from the ice container.
• The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating:
• Motor running
• Ice dropping into ice container
• Water valve opening or closing
• Ice loosening from tray
• Running water
• Turn off the ice maker when cleaning the freezer and during vacations.
• If you turn off the ice maker for a long period of time, you should also turn off
the water supply valve.

Cleaning The Ice Dispenser
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals, particularly
before you take a vacation or move.
To clean the ice dispenser:
1Turn off ice production by pressing the ice maker’s Off/On switch.
2Remove the ice bin by lifting up and out.
3Empty and carefully clean the ice bin with mild detergent. Rinse with clear
water. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.
4Allow the ice bin to dry completely before replacing in the freezer.
5Remove ice chips and clean the ice bin shelf and the freezer door chute.
6Replace the ice bin. Press the ice maker’s Off/On switch to resume ice
production.
Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:
• An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice
storage bin to melt and freeze together, jamming the dispenser mechanism.
• You do not use the ice dispenser frequently. Ice cubes will freeze together
in the bin, jamming the dispenser mechanism.
Remove the ice storage bin and shake to loosen the cubes or clean as explained
above. Never use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to break up the ice. This
could damage the ice storage bin and dispenser mechanism.

							23Changing The Filters
LOCATING THE FILTERS
Your refrigerator is equipped with separate water and air
filtering systems. The water filter system filters all
dispensed drinking water, as well as the water used to
produce ice. The air filter removes odors and impurities
from the refrigerator compartment.
Water Filter
The water filter is located at the top of the fresh food
compartment, next to the electronic control system panel.
See the earlier section in this manual for more information
about when to replace the filter.
Air Filter
The air filter is located inside the refrigerator compartment
at the top rear corner. See the earlier section in this manual
for more information about when to replace the filter.
REPLACING THE AIR FILTER
In general, you should change the air filter every six months to ensure optimal
filtering of refrigerator odors. You may want to adjust this time period depending on
the types and amounts of food you typically store in your
refrigerator. To replace your air filter:
1Push the plastic bubble tab located on the side of the
air filter housing. The hinged bottom half drops open.
2Remove the old filter and discard it.
3Unpackage the new filter and place it inside the hinged
bottom half of the housing.
4Push the hinged bottom half upward until the tab snaps
into closed position.
5Press and hold the Filter Reset button on the
electronic control panel for 3 seconds. When the Filter
OK light comes on, the status has been reset.
6Press and hold the Filter Reset button for 3 seconds
again to turn off the filter status system.

Changing The Filters
REPLACING THE WATER FILTER
In general, you should change the water filter every six to nine months to ensure
highest possible water quality. The Filter Status light on the dispenser control
panel prompts you to replace the filter after 1514 liters of water has flowed through
the system.
If your refrigerator has not been used for a period of time (during moving for
example), change the filter before reinstalling the refrigerator.

Storing Food & Saving Energy
IDEAS FOR STORING FOODS
Fresh Food Storage
• Keep the fresh food compartment between 1.1° C and 4.4° C with an
optimum temperature of 2.8° C (see the earlier section for more information
about temperature settings).
• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves, which reduces air circulation and
causes uneven cooling.
Fruits and Vegetables
• Store fruits and vegetables in crisper drawers, where trapped moisture helps
preserve food quality for longer time periods.
 
						

							26Storing Food & Saving Energy
Meat
• Wrap raw meat and poultry securely so leakage and contamination of other
foods or surfaces does not occur.
• Use the meat keeper drawer for short term storage. Any meat to be kept
longer than two days should be frozen.
Frozen Food Storage
• Keep the freezer compartment at -18° C or lower (see the earlier section for
more information about temperature settings).
• A freezer operates most efficiently when it is at least 2/3 full.
Packaging Foods for Freezing
• To minimize food dehydration and quality deterioration, use aluminum foil,
freezer wrap, freezer bags or airtight containers. Force as much air out of the
packages as possible and seal them tightly. Trapped air can cause food to
dry out, change color, and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn).
• Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable freezer wrap prior to freezing.
• Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed.
Loading the Freezer
• Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at one time. This overloads
the freezer, slows freezing, and can raise the temperature of frozen foods.
• Leave a space between packages, so cold air can circulate freely, allowing
food to freeze as quickly as possible.
• Avoid storing hard-to-freeze foods, such as ice cream and orange juice, on
the freezer door shelves.
IDEAS FOR SAVING ENERGY
Installation
• Locate the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight,
and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the refrigerator next
to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven, or dishwasher. If this is
not possible, a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between
the two appliances will help the refrigerator operate more efficiently.
• Level the refrigerator so that the doors close tightly.
Food Storage
• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator or blocking cold air vents. Doing so
causes the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy.
• Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator.
This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
• Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
