To keep dispensed ice from missing the glass, put the glass close to, but not touching, the dispenser opening.

Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of narrow glasses. Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause the
GRRULQWKHFKXWHWRIUHH]HVKXW,ILFHLVEORFNLQJWKH chute remove the ice bucket, poke it through with a wooden spoon.
Beverages and foods should not be quick-chilled in the door ice maker bin. Cans, bottles or food packages in the storage drawer may cause the ice maker or auger to jam.

Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you selected CUBED ICE. 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.

To Use the Internal Water Dispenser*
The water dispenser is located on the left wall inside the refrigerator compartment. To dispense water:
Hold the glass against the recess. Push the water dispenser button. Hold the glass underneath the dispenser for 2­3 seconds after releasing the dispenser button. Water may continue to dispense after the button is released.

The fans change speeds in order to provide optimal cooling and energy savings.

CLICKS, POPS,
CRACKS and SNAPS
Y ou may hear cracking or popping sounds when the refrigerator is first plugged in. This happens as the refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.
The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping sound when attempting to restart (this could take up to 5 minutes).
Expansion and contraction of cooling coils during and after defrost can cause a cracking or popping sound.
On models with an ice maker, after an ice making cycle, you may hear the ice cubes dropping into the ice bucket.
After dispensing ice, a motor will close the ice chute to keep warm room air from entering the ice bucket, PDLQWDLQLQJLFHDWDIUHH]LQJWHPSHUDWXUH

WATER SOUNDS
