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 ice
maker 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.
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.
