position.
To manually turn off the ice maker, slide the control to the
OFF (right) position.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The ice maker
sensors will automatically stop ice production, but the control will
remain in the ON (left) position.
REMEMBER:
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of
the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the
ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener
chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker
and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot
be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating
properly and is well maintained.
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the storage
bin. This can cause damage to the ice container and the
dispenser mechanism.
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage
bin.

4. Align the ridge on the cap with the arrow on the new filter and
turn the cap until it snaps into place.
NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water
will not be filtered. Simply insert the cap all of the way into the
base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.
5. Remove the covers from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are
still in place after the covers are removed.
6. Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop
back out when the filter is fully engaged.
7. Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”
REFRIGERATOR CARE
Cleaning
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor
transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
To Clean Your Refrigerator:
NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes,
concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing
petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or
gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh
cleaning tools.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
3. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
4. On some models, wash glass door panels with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
NOTES:
Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, furniture, toys, or
other objects. Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the
glass may weaken its structure, causing an increased risk
of breakage at a later date.
Do not close the doors until all shelves, drawers and bins
are in place.
5. There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal
home operating environments. If the environment is
particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in
the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to
3 months to ensure maximum efficiency.
If you need to clean the condenser:
Remove the base grille.
Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille,
the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area
of the condenser.
Replace the base grille when finished.
6. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or
after the system.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
7
Changing the Light Bulbs
NOTE: Not all bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to replace
the bulb with one of the same size, shape and wattage.
Replacement bulbs are available from your dealer.
The dispenser lights are LEDs that cannot be changed.
All other lights require a 40-watt bulb.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove light shield when applicable.
NOTE: To clean the light shield, wash it with warm water and
liquid detergent. Rinse and dry the shield well.
3. Remove light bulb and replace with one of the same size,
shape and wattage.
4. Replace light shield when applicable.

TROUBLESHOOTING
First try the solutions suggested here or visit our website and reference FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
to possibly avoid the cost of a service call.
In the U.S.A., www.maytag.com In Canada, www.maytag.ca
Refrigerator Operation
The refrigerator will not operate
Power cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet.
Is outlet working? Plug in a lamp to see if the outlet is
working.
Household fuse blown or circuit breaker tripped? Replace
the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues,
call an electrician.
Are controls on? Make sure the refrigerator controls are on.
See “Using the Controls.”
New installation? Allow 24 hours following installation for the
refrigerator to cool completely.
NOTE: Adjusting the temperature controls to coldest setting will
not cool either compartment more quickly.
The motor seems to run too much
Your new refrigerator may run longer than your old one due to its
high-efficiency compressor and fans. To maximize energy
efficiency, the compressor changes speed to provide just the
right amount of cooling as it is needed. Your refrigerator may run
as much as 100% of the time, but it will still use less energy than
an older refrigerator. You may notice that it runs more often when
the room is warm, a large amount of food is added to either
compartment, or the doors are opened often.
The refrigerator is noisy
Refrigerator noise has been reduced over the years. Due to this
reduction, you may hear intermittent noises from your new
refrigerator that you did not notice from your old model. Below
are listed some normal sounds with an explanation.
Buzzing - heard when the water valve opens to fill the ice
maker
Pulsating - fans/compressor adjusting to optimize
performance
Rattling - flow of refrigerant, water line, or from items placed
on top of the refrigerator
Sizzling/Gurgling - water dripping on the heater during
defrost cycle
Popping - contraction/expansion of inside walls, especially
during initial cool-down
Water running - may be heard when ice melts during the
defrost cycle and water runs into the drain pan
Creaking/Cracking - occurs as ice is being ejected from the
ice maker mold.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.

USO DE SU REFRIGERADOR
Uso de los controles
Regulación del control de temperatura y
Encendido/Apagado del enfriamiento
Los botones del control del refrigerador y del congelador están
ubicados en el panel del despachador.
Para apagar el enfriamiento, presione y sostenga los botones de
LOCK (Bloqueo) y FAST ICE/COOL (Hielo/Frío rápido) al mismo
tiempo, por 3 segundos. Presione y sostenga LOCK (Bloqueo) y
FAST ICE/COOL (Hielo/Frío rápido) nuevamente para encender el
enfriamiento. Su refrigerador y congelador no se enfriarán
cuando el enfriamiento esté apagado.
IMPORTANTE: Para evitar bloquear accidentalmente el
despachador o cambiar otros ajustes, asegúrese de
presionar ambos botones exactamente al mismo tiempo.
Para su comodidad, los controles de su refrigerador y
congelador vienen prefijados de fábrica. Al instalar su
refrigerador por primera vez, cerciórese de que los controles aún
estén fijados en los “ajustes medios”.
Para ver los puntos fijos, presione el botón TEMPERATURE
(Temperatura) en el panel del despachador. Los puntos de ajuste
recomendados de fábrica son 0ºF (-18ºC) para el congelador y
37ºF (3ºC) para el refrigerador.
IMPORTANTE:

refrigerador. Si agrega alimentos antes de que el refrigerador
se haya enfriado por completo, sus alimentos podrían
echarse a perder.
NOTA: El ajustar los puntos fijos a un ajuste más alto (más
frío) que el ajuste recomendado no hará que los
compartimientos se enfríen más rápido.
Si la temperatura está demasiado caliente o demasiado fría
en el refrigerador o en el congelador, antes de regular los
controles, revise primero los conductos de ventilación para
cerciorarse de que no estén obstruidos.
Los ajustes prefijados deben ser los correctos para un uso
doméstico normal. Los controles están ajustados
correctamente cuando la leche o los jugos están tan fríos
como Ud. desea y cuando el helado tiene consistencia firme.
Espere por lo menos 24 horas entre ajustes. Vuelva a verificar
las temperaturas antes de realizar otros ajustes.
La pantalla que está en el panel de control del despachador
tiene una luz de fondo que se apagará automáticamente
cuando los botones del control no se hayan usado durante
30 segundos o más. Cuando está apagada la luz de fondo, al

las carnes o los vegetales. El aire dentro de la charola se enfría
para evitar que partes de los alimentos se congelen y puede
ajustarse para mantener la carne a las temperaturas de
almacenaje recomendadas por el National Livestock and Meat
Board (Consejo Nacional de Ganado y Carnes) de 28° a 32°F
(-2° a 0°C). El control de temperatura para el cajón convertible
está prefijado en el ajuste de PRODUCE (Verduras).
Para guardar carne:
Fije el control en uno de los tres ajustes de MEAT (Carne), para
guardar la carne en su temperatura ideal de almacenaje.
Para guardar verduras:
Fije el control en PRODUCE para guardar las verduras en sus
temperaturas óptimas de almacenaje.
NOTA: Si los alimentos se empiezan a congelar, mueva el control
hacia la izquierda (menos frío). Recuerde que debe esperar
24 horas entre ajustes.
Control de humedad del cajón para verduras
(en algunos modelos)
Usted puede controlar el nivel de humedad en el cajón hermético
para verduras. Regule el control a cualquier ajuste entre LOW
(Bajo) y HIGH (Alto).
LOW (Bajo - posición abierta) para el mejor almacenamiento de
frutas y verduras con cáscaras.
HIGH (Alto - posición cerrada) para el mejor almacenamiento de
vegetales de hoja frescos.
Control del frío de la puerta
(en algunos modelos)
El control del frío de la puerta está situado del lado izquierdo del
compartimiento del refrigerador.
Gire el control en la dirección de las manecillas del reloj
(derecha) para reducir el flujo de aire frío hacia la puerta y
hacerla menos fría.
Gire el control en la dirección opuesta de las manecillas del
reloj (izquierda) para incrementar el flujo de aire frío hacia la
puerta y hacerla menos fría.
Despachadores de agua y hielo
(en algunos modelos)
Dependiendo de su modelo, usted puede tener una o más de las
opciones siguientes: la posibilidad de seleccionar hielo picado o
en cubos, una luz especial que se enciende cuando usted utiliza
el despachador o una opción de cierre para evitar que salga hielo
o agua involuntariamente.
NOTAS:
El sistema de distribucn no funciona cuando la puerta del
congelador esté abierta.
Después de haber conectado el refrigerador a un suministro
de agua, enjuague el sistema de agua. Use un recipiente
resistente para oprimir y sostener la barra del despachador
por 5 segundos, luego suéltela por 5 segundos. Repita hasta
que el agua comience a correr. Una vez que el agua comen
a correr, continúe presionando y soltando la barra del
despachador (5 segundos activado, 5 segundos
desactivado) por otros 5 minutos. Este proceso eliminará el
aire en el filtro y en el sistema de despacho de agua. En
algunas casas se podrá requerir enjuague adicional. A
medida que sale aire del sistema, es posible que salgan
chorros de agua repentinos del despachador.
Deje transcurrir 24 horas para que el refrigerador se enfríe y
pueda enfriar el agua.
Deje transcurrir 24 horas para la producción del primer lote
de hielo. Deshágase de los tres primeros lotes de hielo
producidos.
La pantalla que está en el panel de control del despachador
tiene una luz de fondo que se apagará automáticamente
cuando los botones del control no se hayan usado durante
30 segundos o más. Cuando está apagada la luz de fondo, al
presionar por primera vez el botón de control se reactivará la
misma, sin cambiar ningún ajuste. En menos de 30 segundos
después de que se haya reactivado la luz de fondo, al
presionar más veces los botones del control, se cambiarán
los ajustes que sean aplicables.
El despachador de agua
IMPORTANTE: Haga salir suficiente agua cada semana para
mantener un suministro fresco.
Para despachar agua:
1. Oprima un vaso resistente contra la barra del despachador
de agua.
2. Retire el vaso para detener la salida del agua.

El despachador de hielo
El hielo se distribuye del depósito de la fábrica de hielo en el
congelador cuando se presione la barra del despachador. El
sistema de distribución no funcionará cuando la puerta del
congelador esté abierta. Para apagar la fábrica de hielo, vea
“Fábrica de hielo y depósito”.
Su fábrica de hielo produce hielo picado y en cubos. Antes de
sacar hielo, seleccione el tipo de hielo que desea, presionando el
botón de ICE (Hielo).
La pantalla indica qué tipo de hielo se ha seleccionado.
Para obtener hielo picado, el hielo es triturado antes de ser
despachado. Esto puede retrasar un poco la distribución del
hielo picado. El ruido proveniente del triturador de hielo es
normal y los trozos de hielo pueden variar en tamaño. Cuando
cambie de la posición de hielo picado a cubos, caen unas onzas
de hielo picado junto con los primeros cubos.
Para despachar hielo:
1. Oprima el botón para seleccionar el tipo de hielo que desee.
2. Oprima con un vaso resistente la barra del despachador de
hielo. Sostenga el vaso junto al orificio del despachador para
que el hielo no caiga fuera del vaso.
IMPORTANTE: No necesita aplicar mucha presión a la barra
para activar el despachador de hielo. Oprimir fuerte no hará
que el despachador funcione con más rapidez o produzca
mayor cantidad de hielo.
3. Retire el vaso para detener la salida de hielo.
NOTA: El hielo puede continuar saliendo por hasta
10 segundos después de haber retirado el vaso de la barra.
El despachador puede continuar haciendo ruido por algunos
segundos después de haber despachado.
La luz del despachador (en algunos modelos)
Cuando usted utilice el despachador, la luz se encenderá
automáticamente. Si usted desea que la luz esté encendida
continuamente, puede elegir ON (Encendido) o DIM (Tenue). La
pantalla indica qué modo está seleccionado.
ON (Encendido): Presione LIGHT (Luz) para encender la luz del
despachador.
DIM (Tenue): Presione LIGHT por segunda vez para seleccionar
el modo DIM. La luz del despachador permanecerá encendida,
pero con una intensidad más baja.
OFF (Apagado): Presione LIGHT por tercera vez para apagar la
luz del despachador.
Las luces del despachador son del tipo LED y no se pueden
cambiar. Si le parece que las luces del despachador no
funcionan, vea “Solución de problemas” para obtener más
información.
El bloqueo del despachador (en algunos modelos)
El despachador puede apagarse para facilitar la limpieza o para
evitar que sea activado involuntariamente por niños pequeños o
animales domésticos.
NOTA: La función de cierre no interrumpe el flujo eléctrico al
refrigerador, a la fábrica de hielo o a la luz del despachador.
Únicamente desactiva los controles y las barras del
despachador. Para apagar la fábrica de hielo, vea “Fábrica de
hielo y depósito”.
Presione y sostenga LOCK (Bloqueo) por 3 segundos para
bloquear el despachador.
Presione y sostenga LOCK por segunda vez para
desbloquear el despachador.
La pantalla indica cuándo el despachador está bloqueado.
Fábrica de hielo y depósito
Para encender y apagar la fábrica de hielo
El interruptor de On/Off (Encendido/Apagado) se encuentra en el
lado derecho superior del compartimiento del congelador.
Para poner a funcionar la fábrica de hielo, deslice el control a
la posición de ON (Encendido - hacia la izquierda).
Para apagar la fábrica de hielo manualmente, deslice el
control a la posición de OFF (Apagado - hacia la derecha).
NOTA: La fábrica de hielo tiene un apagado automático. Los
sensores de la fábrica de hielo detendrán automáticamente la
producción de hielo, pero el control permanecerá en la posición
de ON (Encendido - hacia la izquierda).
RECUERDE:
Deje transcurrir 24 horas para la producción del primer lote
de hielo. Deshágase de los tres primeros lotes de hielo
producidos.
La calidad del hielo dependerá de la calidad del agua que
suministre a su fábrica de hielo. Evite la conexión de su
fábrica de hielo a un suministro de agua blanda. Los
químicos para ablandar el agua (como la sal) pueden dañar
ciertos componentes de la fábrica de hielo y producir un hielo
de muy baja calidad. Si no se puede evitar el uso de un
suministro de agua blanda, asegúrese de que el ablandador
de agua esté funcionando correctamente y que goce de un
buen mantenimiento.
