back on, causing the dispenser to be out of

order. To prevent this problem, after a power

failure, pull out the ice bucket and discard the

residual ice or water.

After you dump the ice from the ice bucket,

you should press the dispenser lever once

with the 'ICE CUBED' or 'CRUSHED'

function ON. The ice maker will make new ice

faster after you return the ice bucket in the

refrigerator.

If you use all the ice at once, you must

repeat Steps 2 and 3 on the previous page.

However, only wait 8 hours before dispensing

the ﬁ rst 4 to 6 ice cubes. This will replenish

the ice cubes and ensure maximum ice

production.

Using the ice off function

PULL

When selecting the Ice Off mode, remove all ice cubes

from the bucket. If you are not using the ice dispenser, the

ice cubes may clump together. Pull the lock lever forward

to throw away ice cubes or remove clumped ice from the

bucket. Push the bucket back until you hear a click.

If you have a long vacation or business trip, close

the water valve and shut off the water supply to

the Refrigerator. This will help prevent accidental

leakages. Do not disassemble the Ice-maker

personally. It may cause disorder. Do not wash or

spray the ice bucket with water. Just wipe it with a

dry cloth. In order to operate the ice-maker properly,

water pressure of 138~862 Kpa is required.

Water clouding phenomenon

All water provided to refrigerators ﬂ ows through the core ﬁ lter

which is an alkaline water ﬁ lter. In this process, the pressure

in the water that has ﬂ owed out of the ﬁ lter gets increased,

and oxygen and nitrogen become saturated. When this water

ﬂ ows out in the air, the pressure plummets and the oxygen

and nitrogen get supersaturated so that they turn into gas

bubbles. The water could look misty due to these oxygen

bubbles.The water may look temporarily cloudy due to these

oxygen bubbles. After a few seconds, the water will look clear.

Please wait 1 second before removing the cup after

dispensing water to prevent spills. Do not pull out the

lever dispenser after taking out ice or water. It comes back

automatically. Ice is made in cubes.

When you select "Crushed", the ice-maker grinds the ice

cubes into crushed ice.
