After replacing the Evaporator or Auger, run the icemaker for 30 minutes to produce ice,
check for impurities, and discard.

[c] REFRIGERANT

The HFC-free refrigerant is flammable and sealed in the refrigeration system. Although
the refrigerant does not leak out under normal usage, take utmost care when handling
this icemaker so as not to cause any damages to the system. In the case of accidental
damage to the refrigeration system causing refrigerant leak, do not create a source of
ignition in the area. Do not operate electrical switches or plugs in the area, do not use
naked flame. Immediately ventilate the area by opening doors and/or windows.
