TO DISPENSE WATER (STANDARD)

1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser paddle.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: The Fill button does not enable standard dispensing. It only functions in Measured Fill or Favorite Fill mode.

TO DISPENSE WATER (MEASURED FILL)

Measured Fill allows you to dispense a specified amount of water with the touch of a few buttons.
Household water pressure may affect the accuracy of the Measured Fill feature. For optimum performance of your water dispenser, you must first calibrate Measured Fill.
How to calibrate Measured Fill:
IMPORTANT : Flush the water system before calibrating the Measured Fill. See “Flush the Water System” in the Owner’s Manual. For best results, calibration should be performed when water is not being used in the house.

1. Place a sturdy measuring cup (1-cup [237 mL] size) on the dispenser tray centered in front of the ice/water dispenser paddle. Ensure that you do not have any Measured Fill preset selected.
   NOTE: Depending on your model, a measuring cup may be provided.

2. Touch and hold the Measured Fill button for 3 seconds to enter into Calibration mode. The Calibration and Measured Fill icons will illuminate and remain lit while the  Measured Fill feature is being calibrated.
   NOTE: You may touch Measured Fill to exit at any time in Calibration mode. The Calibration and Measured Fill icons will disappear.

3. Press and hold the water dispenser paddle, as needed, to dispense water to the 1-cup fill line in the measuring cup.
   NOTE: If overfilling or spilling occurs, discard the water and restart the calibration process.

4. When 1 cup of water has been correctly dispensed into the measuring cup, touch Measured Fill to confirm the calibration.

When Measured Fill calibration has been confirmed, the calibration icon will disappear and the display will return to the home screen.

1.  Put a sturdy glass under the waterspout. Touch Measured Fill to activate.
   NOTE: The amount of water you select will be dispensed. Make sure the container can hold the entire volume. If ice is in the container, you may need to adjust your selection.

2. Touch Measured Fill to turn on, then touch to select 8 oz (0.2 L), 16 oz (0.5 L), or 24 oz (0.7 L). Touch the fourth time to exit the Measured Fill display.

   • The Measured Fill dispenser will automatically time out after 1 minute of inactivity.
   • You can refill several glasses with the same measurement by continuing to touch Fill (center button) after each glass fill.
   Measured Fill options are listed in the following chart:

Units| | |
---|---|---|---
Ounces| 8| 16| 24
Cups| 1| 2| 3
Liters| 0.2| 0.5| 0.7

NOTE: Most coffee cups (commonly 4 to 6 oz [118 to 177 mL] per cup) are not the same size as a measuring cup (8 oz [237 mL]). You may need to recalibrate Measured  Fill to underfill or to avoid unintentionally overfilling coffee cups.

4. Dispense water. While dispensing water, the flow of water will automatically stop once the desired volume has been dispensed.
   • Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle below the waterspout.
   or
   • Place the glass below the waterspout and touch Fill for hands-free dispensing.

   NOTE: If you stop dispensing before the desired volume has been dispensed, the display will turn off after 1 minute. If you have not resumed by then, it will reset back to the original amount.

6. To select a new volume or start dispensing the same volume again, you must first finish dispensing the selected volume or turn off the Measured Fill feature (either by waiting 1 minute so it will automatically turn off or by touching Cubed Ice or Crushed Ice to manually turn it off), and then select Measured Fill again.

TO DISPENSE WATER (FAVORITE FILL)
Favorite Fill allows you to dispense a preferred amount of water with the touch of a few buttons.
Household water pressure may affect the accuracy of the Favorite Fill feature. So, for optimum performance of your water dispenser, you must first calibrate Measured Fill. (See  Measured Fill section).
IMPORTANT: Flush the water system before Favorite Fill. For best results, calibration should be performed when water is not being used in the house.

1.  Place a preferred-size cup on the dispenser tray centered in front of the ice/water dispenser paddle.

6. To select a new volume or start dispensing the same volume again, you must first finish dispensing the selected volume or turn off the Favorite Fill feature (either by waiting 1 minute so it will automatically turn off or by touching Cubed Ice or Crushed Ice to manually turn it off), and then select Favorite Fill again.

TO DISPENSE ICE
Touch Cubed Ice or Crushed Ice for your nice selection.
IMPORTANT:

• If the ice cubes are hollow or have an irregular shape, it could be because of low water pressure. See the “Water Supply Requirements” section in the Owner’s Manual.

• Ice travels from the ice storage bin through the dispenser chute to the dispenser. To turn off the ice maker, see the “Ice Maker and Storage Bin” section in the Owner’s Manual.

• The dispenser may continue to make noise and ice may continue to dispense for several seconds after releasing the dispenser button or paddle.
  NOTE:

• For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise from the ice crusher is normal and pieces of ice may vary in size.

• When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
