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.
■ 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.
