PrimingTheWaterSupplySystem
Your refrigerator's water supply system includes several tubing lines, an advanced water
filter, a distribution valve bank, and a reserve tank to ensure ample supply to the ice and
water dispenser at all times. This system needs to be completely filled with water when
first connected to an external supply line.

To prime the water supply system:
1 Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a drinking glass against the water
dispenser paddle.
2 Keep the glass in this position until water comes out of the dispenser. It may take
about 11/2minutes.
3 Continue dispensing water for about 3 minutes to flush the system and plumbing
connections of any impurities (stopping to empty the glass as necessary).

The ice maker, ice bin, and dispenser feeding mechanism are located in the top
of the freezer compartment. After the refrigerator is installed properly and has
cooled for several hours, the ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours. It can
completely fill an ice bin in about two days.
UsingThe Ice Dispenser After Installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the water supply system as
described on page 21. 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. Press the
switch to the "O" position to turn it Off and press to the 'T' position to turn it On.
