Solutions
A water filter may need to be installed to
eliminate taste and odor problems.
NOTE: In some cases, a filter may not
help. It may not be possible to remove all
minerals / odor / taste in all water
supplies.
Discard the first few batches of ice to
avoid discolored or bad tasting ice.
Ice that has been stored for too long will
shrink, become cloudy, and may develop a
stale taste. Throw away old ice and make
a new supply.
Rewrap the food. Odors may migrate to
the ice if food is not wrapped properly.
See the Care and Cleaning section for
more information.
Empty and wash the bin (discard old
cubes). Make sure that the bin is
completely dry before reinstalling it.
Allow 24 hours after installation for the
water storage tank to cool completely.
Depending on your specific model, the
water storage capacity will range from
approximately 0.5 lt to 0.75 lt.
If the dispenser has not been used for
several hours, the first glass dispensed
may be warm. Discard the first 200 ml or
add ice before filling.
Make sure that the refrigerator is
connected to a cold water pipe.
WARNING: Connecting the refrigerator to
a hot water line may damage the
icemaker.
