32 HOW TO USE

Automatic Icemaker

* Depending on the model, some of the
following functions may not be available.
Ice is made in the automatic icemaker and sent
to the dispenser. The icemaker will produce
70~182 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending
on freezer compartment temperature, room
temperature, number of door openings and
other operating conditions.
It takes about 12 to 24 hours for a newly
y
installed refrigerator to begin making ice. Wait
72 hours for full ice production to occur.
Ice making stops when the in-door ice bin
y
is full. When full, the in-door ice bin holds
approximately 6 to 8 (12~16 oz or 340~455 cc)
glasses of ice.
The water pressure must be 20~120 psi or
y
138~827 kPa or 1.4~8.4 kgf/cm² on models
without a water filter and 40~120 psi or
276~827 kPa or 2.8~8.4 kgf/cm² on models
with a water filter to produce the normal
amount and size of ice cubes.
Foreign substances or frost on the ice-
y
detecting sensor can interrupt ice production.
Make sure the sensor area is clean at all times
for proper operation.
WARNING

DO NOT place fingers or hands on the
