OPERATION
22
Automatic Icemaker
Before Using the In-Door
Icemaker
CAUTION
• The first ice and water dispensed may include
particles or odour from the water supply line or
the water tank.
• If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water
tank and the water supply for a possible source.
If the problem continues, contact the LG
Electronics customer information centre. Do not
use the ice or water until the problem is
corrected.
• Do not touch the automatic icemaker with your
hand or a tool.
• Do not remove the cover of the automatic
icemaker.
• Dispose of the ice inside the ice bin if you go on
vacation or if an extended power outage occurs.
NOTE
• The icemaker produces ice normally when
approximately 48 hours have passed after the
appliance is initially installed.
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice
production will stop.
• Sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.
• If ice cubes are stored in the ice bin for a long
period of time, they may clump together and
may not be separated easily. In such a case,
empty the ice bin and allow fresh ice to be made.
In-Door Icemaker
The automatic icemaker can automatically make 6
cubes at a time, 30-50 cubes within a 24-hour
period if conditions are favorable. This amount
may vary according to the environment (ambient
temperature around the appliance, frequency of
the door being opened, amount of food stored in
the appliance, etc.).
Turning the Automatic
Icemaker On or Off
To turn the automatic icemaker On/Off, press the
Ice On/Off button on the control panel.
Normal Sounds You May Hear
The icemaker water valve will buzz as the icemaker
fills with water. If the Ice On/Off button is set to
On, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up
to water. To stop the buzzing, press the Ice On/Off
button to Off position.
CAUTION
• Do not keep the power turned on to the
icemaker if the water tank is empty. Doing so can
damage the icemaker.
NOTE
• You will hear the sound of ice dropping into the
bin and water running in the pipes as the
icemaker refills.
Preparing for Vacation
If the ambient temperature will drop below
freezing, have a qualified technician drain the
water supply system to prevent serious property
damage due to flooding caused by ruptured water
lines or connections.
Set the Ice On/Off button to Off and shut off the
water supply to the appliance.
