odor from the water supply line or the water tank.
• T hrow away the first few batches of ice. This is also
necessary if the refrigerator has not been used for a long
time.
• N ever store beverage cans or other items in the ice bin for
the purpose of rapid cooling. Doing so may damage the
icemaker or the containers may burst.
• If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water filter and
water supply. If the problem continues, contact a service
center. Do not use the ice or water until the problem is
corrected.

with or damage the controls.
• T he ice passage may become blocked with frost if only
crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates
by removing the ice bin and clearing the passage with
a rubber spatula. Dispensing cubed ice can also help
prevent frost buildup.
• N ever use thin crystal glass or crockery to collect ice. Such
containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments
in the ice.
• D ispense ice into a glass before filling it with water or other
beverages. Splashing may occur if ice is dispensed into a
glass that already contains liquid.

may jam in the ice passage and refrigerator performance
may be affected.

A glass held too close to the outlet may prevent ice from
dispensing.
