Ice and Water Dispenser

Before Using the Ice and Water
Dispenser
CAUTION
• Keep children away from the dispenser. Children
may play with or damage the controls.
• Throw away the first few batches of ice (about
140 - 160 cubes) after installation. The first ice
and water dispensed may include particles or
odor from the water supply line or the water
tank. This is also necessary if the refrigerator has
not been used for a long time.
• Dispense and throw away 2.5 gallons of water
(flush for approximately 5 minutes) after
installation. Do not dispense the entire 2.5 gallon
amount continuously. Press and release the
dispenser pad for cycles of 30 seconds ON and
60 seconds OFF. This is also necessary if the
refrigerator has not been used for a long time.
• If ice or water dispenses unexpectedly, turn off
the water supply and contact an LG Electronics
Customer Information Center.
• Never use a glass that is exceptionally narrow or
deep. Ice may jam in the ice passage and
refrigerator performance may be affected.
NOTE
• The dispenser will not operate when either of
the refrigerator doors is open.
• If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water
filter and water supply. If the problem continues,
contact an LG Electronics Customer Information
Center. Do not use the water or ice until the
problem is corrected.
• Dispense 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.
• Some dripping may occur after dispensing. Hold
the cup beneath the dispenser for a few seconds
after dispensing to catch all of the drops.
• Keep containers at an appropriate distance from
the dispensers. Tall, narrow glasses should be
held far enough from the ice outlet to prevent
ice from jamming in the ice chute. A container
with a very small opening should be held as
close to the dispenser as possible to avoid
spilling.
• Keep the glass at a proper distance from the ice
outlet. A glass held too close to the outlet may
prevent ice from dispensing.
