Common Product Questions
How do I unclog the ice dispenser chute?
Eliminate the frost of ice fragments by re-
moving the ice bin and clearing the chute
with a plastic utensil. Dispensing cubed ice
can also help prevent frost or ice fragment
buildup.
Make sure that the refrigerator doors are
closed before attempting to dispense ice.
Why are ice crystals and frost forming
on my frozen food?
When the doors are opened often or for
long periods of time, warm, humid air
enters the compartment. This raises the
temperature and moisture level within the
compartment. Increased moisture will lead
to frost and condensation. To lessen the
effect, reduce the frequency and duration
of door openings.
How long will it take for my ice bin to
fi ll completely?
Once the ice supply in the bin has been
completely exhausted, it may take up
to 90 minutes before additional ice is
available, and approximately 72 hours to
completely refill the bin.
Why does my ice and water taste
unusual?
It is recommended that you replace the
water fi lter:
Approximately every 6 months.
When the water fi lter indicator turns on.
When the water dispenser output
decreases.
When the ice cubes are smaller than
normal.
If your refrigerator was recently installed,
dispense 2.5 gallons of water (fl ush for
approximately 5 minutes) to remove
trapped air and contaminants from the
system. Do not dispense the entire 2.5
gallon amount continuously. Depress and
release the dispenser pad for cycles of 30
seconds ON and 60 seconds OFF .
