Water is cooled while stored in the water tank in the refrigerator compartment, and
then sent to the dispenser. Ice is made in the automatic ice maker and is then sent
to the dispenser as either crushed or cubed ice.
NOTE
• It is normal that at first the water is not very cold. If you want colder water, add ice to the glass.
Throw away the first ice (about 20 pieces) and the first water (about 7 glasses)
passing through the appliance when the refrigerator is initially installed.
The first ice and water may include particles or odour from the feed water pipe
or the feed water box. The should also be done if the refrigerator has not been
used for a long time.
Keep children away from the dispenser.
Children may push the dispenser switch incorrectly, or damage the dispenser
by breaking associated parts. It may also cause them injury.
Always ensure that food does not block the ice chute.
If foods are placed at the entrance of the ice chute, ice may not be dispensed.
The ice chute may become covered with ice powder if crushed ice is most
commonly used. Remove the accumulated ice powder.
Never store beverage cans or other foods in the ice storage bin for
rapid cooling.
This may damage the automatic ice maker.
Never use fine crystal glasses or crockery to collect ice.
Such glasses or containers may be broken.
Put ice into a glass before filling with water or other beverages.
Water may be splashed if ice is added after the drink.
Never touch the ice outlet either with hands or any implement.
Touching the ice outlet may cause a breakage or hand injury.
Never remove the ice maker cover. It might be necessary from time to time to
level the ice so the storage bin can fill to capacity.
If ice is allowed to pile up near the ice maker, the ice maker may think that it is
already full and it will stop producing ice.
If discolored ice is dispensed, stop using the appliance and contact your serv-
ice centre immediately.
Ice may be jammed in ice chute causing the refrigerator to fail.
Never use narrow or deep glassware when using the icemaker
as ice can back up into the ice chute and cause a malfunction.
Keep the glass at a proper distance from ice outlet.
A glass too close to the outlet may hinder ice from coming out.
