WARNING

DO NOT place fingers in the automatic icemaker when the refrigerator is plugged in.
Avoid contact with any moving parts of the ejector mechanism or with the heater that releases the ice cubes.

Before Using the In-Door Icemaker

NOTE

Ice is made in the automatic in-door icemaker and sent to the dispenser. The icemaker produces 70 – 182 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other operating conditions.
It takes about 12 to 24 hours for a newly installed refrigerator to begin making ice.
Ice-making stops when the in-door ice bin is full. When full, the in-door ice bin holds approximately 6 to 8 (12-16 oz.) glasses of ice.
Foreign substances or frost on the ice-detecting sensor can interrupt ice production. Make sure the sensor area is clean at all times for proper operation.
To increase ice production, use the Ice Plus function. The function increases both ice making and freezing capabilities.

In-Door Icemaker

Auto Shutoff (feeler arm)

Before Using the Freezer Icemaker
This feature is only available on some models.
The feature may vary depending on model purchased.

CAUTION

Store only ice in the ice bin. Do not store ice scooping tools or other items in the ice bin.
Ice may overflow when removing or assembling the ice bin. Remove any ice in the bin area before assembling the ice bin.
Make sure that the ice bin is assembled in the correct orientation front to back.
Models with two ice bins in the freezer:
- The Craft Ice bin is located on the left and the Cubed Mini Ice bin is located on the right. Do not change the positions of the two ice bins.
- Do not store Craft Ice in the Cubed Mini Ice bin or Cubed Mini Ice in the Craft Ice bin.

NOTE

Throw away the first bin full of ice after installation. This is also necessary if the refrigerator has not been used for a long time.
The icemaker begins producing ice approximately 48 hours after the appliance is initially installed.
The sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.
If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice production will stop.
The amount and shape of ice may vary according to the environment (ambient temperature around the appliance, frequency of the door being opened, amount of food stored in the appliance, water pressure, etc.).
In the event of a power outage, throw away the ice stored in the ice bin.

Freezer Icemaker (Cubed Ice)
This feature is only available on some models.

Feeler Arm

NOTE

This automatic freezer icemaker produces 12 cubes at a time, 50-110 pieces within a 24 hour period if conditions are favorable. This amount may vary according to the environment (ambient temperature around the appliance, frequency of the door being opened, amount of food stored in the appliance, etc.).
Ice cubes which are stored in the ice bin for a long time may clump together and be difficult to separate. If this happens, empty the ice bin completely and clean it before reinstalling it.

Normal Sounds You May Hear

Keeping the power turned on to the icemaker before the water line is connected can damage the icemaker.
The icemaker water valve buzzes as the icemaker fills with water. If the icemaker power button is in the ON position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing, press the icemaker power button to turn it off.
You will hear the sound of ice dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills.

Preparing for Vacation
Set the icemaker power button to OFF and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator.

NOTE

The ice bin should be emptied any time the icemaker power button is turned to the OFF position.

If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified technician drain the water supply system to prevent serious property damage due to flooding caused by ruptured water lines or connections.

Storing Food

NOTE

If you are leaving home for a short period, like a short vacation, the refrigerator should be left on. Refrigerated foods that are able to be frozen will stay preserved longer if stored in the freezer.
If you are leaving the refrigerator turned off for an extended period, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean the interior, and leave the door open to prevent fungi from growing in the refrigerator.
If doors are opened or closed too often, warm air may penetrate the refrigerator and raise its temperature. This can increase the running costs of the unit.

Food Storage Tips
Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator. For dated products, check date code to ensure freshness.

CAUTION

Do not overfill or pack items too tightly into door bins. Doing so may cause damage to the bin or personal injury if items are removed with excessive force.
Do not store glass containers in the freezer. Contents may expand when frozen, break the container and cause injury.

How to Store Food

Butter or Margarine
- Keep opened butter in covered dish or closed compartment. When storing an extra supply, wrap in freezer packaging and freeze.
Cheese
- Store in original wrapping until used. Once opened, rewrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
Milk
- Wipe milk cartons. For coldest milk, place containers on an interior shelf.
Eggs
- Store in original carton on interior shelf, not on door shelf.
Fruit
- Do not wash or hull fruit until it is ready to be used. Sort and keep fruit in original container in a crisper, or store in completely closed paper bag on refrigerator shelf.
Leafy Vegetables
- Remove store wrapping, trim or tear off bruised and discolored areas, wash in cold water, and drain. Place in plastic bag or plastic container and store in crisper.
Vegetables with skins (carrots, peppers)
- Place in plastic bags or plastic container and store in crisper.
Fish
- Freeze fresh fish and shellfish if they are not being eaten the same day purchased. Eating fresh fish and shellfish the same day purchased is recommended.
Leftovers
- Cover leftovers with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or store in plastic containers with tight lids.

NOTE

Do not store food with high moisture content towards the top of the refrigerator. The moisture could come into direct contact with the cold air and freeze.
Wash food before storing it in the refrigerator. Vegetables should be washed, and food packaging should be wiped down to prevent adjacent foods from being contaminated.
If the refrigerator is kept in a hot and humid place, frequent opening of the door or storing a lot of vegetables in the refrigerator may cause condensation to form. Wipe off the condensation with a clean cloth or a paper towel.

Storing Frozen Food
Check a freezer guide or a reliable cookbook for further information about preparing food for freezing or food storage times.

Freezing
Your freezer will not quick-freeze a large quantity of food. Do not put more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 pounds of food per cubic foot of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to leave enough room at the front so the door can close tightly.

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (how airtight and moisture-proof) and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice crystals.

NOTE

Allow hot foods to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, and then package and freeze. Cooling hot foods before freezing saves energy.

Packaging
Successful freezing depends on correct packaging. When you close and seal the package, it must not allow air or moisture in or out. If it does, you could have food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator and could also dry out frozen food.

Packaging Recommendations

Rigid plastic containers with tight-fitting lids
Straight-sided canning/freezing jars
Heavy-duty aluminum foil
Plastic-coated paper
Non-permeable plastic wraps
Specified freezer-grade self-sealing plastic bags

Follow package or container instructions for proper freezing methods.

Do not use

Bread wrappers
Non-polyethylene plastic containers
Containers without tight lids
Wax paper or wax-coated freezer wrap
Thin, semi-permeable wrap

Smart Grid Function
When the refrigerator operates in Smart Grid mode, the Smart Refrigerator function can control energy usage or delay the operation of some functions to save energy during peak usage periods.

You can override the Smart Grid function any time (using the Smart Grid button or application).
To use the Smart Grid function, you need to register your appliance with your electric utility company, provided that your electric utility company supports the function. In other words, the Smart Grid function will not be available if your electric utility company does not support the function or does not have the capability to support the function.

Smart Grid Application Features

Smart Saving_Demand Response
- You can lower energy usage based on Demand Response (DR) signals from the utility company. If the refrigerator is operating in Smart Saving mode according to the DR signal, you can see a pop up.
Seasonal Energy Savings
- Lower energy usage based on time period.

Using the Smart Grid Function
This feature responds to notification events from your utility company to run high energy consuming tasks during off-peak periods when demand is lower. These notification events are known as Demand Response signals.
If the refrigerator receives a Demand Response signal from the utility company, the refrigerator will turn on the Grid LED on the refrigerator display and control its power consumption according to the signal. The refrigerator will respond to the signals received from the utility company as long as product performance is maintained.

If the refrigerator receives a Demand Response signal, the refrigerator will operate in Delay Appliance Load (DAL) or Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (TALR) mode.

Delay Appliance Load (DAL)
The refrigerator responds to a DAL signal by providing a moderate load reduction for the duration of the delay period.
This mode controls functions that consume a lot of energy such as adjusting the cooling system, running the defrost cycle, and making ice.

When the refrigerator operates in DAL mode, the Grid LED is illuminated on the refrigerator display.
DAL mode is automatically deactivated after the period stipulated by the DAL signal (max. 4 hours) or when you override the Smart Grid function.

Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (TALR)
The refrigerator responds to a TALR signal by aggressively reducing the load for a short time period, typically 10 minutes. This mode reduces energy consumption by stopping the compressor and controlling the functions that consume a lot of energy such as the defrost cycle and fan.

When the refrigerator operates in TALR mode, the Grid LED is illuminated on the refrigerator display.
TALR mode is automatically deactivated after the received duration (max. 10 minutes), or when you override the Smart Grid function. The mode is immediately deactivated and the refrigerator returns to its normal state when the door is opened or closed, or the dispenser is used.

Override Smart Grid Mode
To ignore the Demand Response signal from the utility company and override the Smart Grid function, push the Smart Grid button while the refrigerator is in Smart Grid mode.
When you override the Smart Grid function, the refrigerator ignores the Demand Response signal and is no longer controlled by the utility company until the next Demand Response signal is sent. You can also override the Smart Grid function using the smart phone app.

For products with black stainless steel exterior, spray glass cleaner on a clean microfiber cloth and rub in direction of grain. Do not spray glass cleaner directly at the display panel. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.
For products with a standard stainless steel exterior, use a damp microfiber cloth and rub in the direction of the grain. Dry with a paper towel to avoid streaks. For stubborn stains and fingerprints, use a few drops of liquid dish soap in water, and rinse with hot water before drying. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners.

Inside Walls

Allow freezer to warm up so the cloth will not stick.

To help remove odors, wash the inside of the refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and warm water. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of water (26 g soda to 1 liter water.) Be sure the baking soda is completely dissolved so it does not scratch the surfaces of the refrigerator.

Door Liners and Gaskets
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleaners containing petroleum on plastic refrigerator parts.

Plastic Parts (Covers and Panels)
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use glass cleaners, abrasive cleansers, or flammable fluids. These can scratch or damage the material.

Condenser Coils
Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush or crevice attachment to clean the condenser cover and vents. Do not remove the panel covering the condenser coil area.

Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions exist you must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.
Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of this filter system is 100 °F (37.8 °C).
Protect filter from freezing. Drain filter when temperatures drop below 40 °F (4.4 °C).
The disposable filter cartridge MUST be replaced every 6 months, at the rated capacity or if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.
To protect it from freezing, remove filter cartridge when temperatures are expected to drop below 33° F.
Do not install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above 110° F (43.3° C).
Where a backflow prevention device is installed on a water system, a device for controlling pressure due to thermal expansion must be installed.

CAUTION

Ensure all tubing and fittings are secure and free from leaks.

Replacing the Water Filter

Replace the water filter:
- Approximately every six months.
