Caution
• Do not touch or hold with wet hands foods (foods container) in the freezer compartment.
☞ There is a risk of chilblains (cold burn)
• Do not store medicine, academic research samples etc. in the refrigerator.
•Do not store vegetables in the chilled room, for they can be frozen.
Note
• Egg case can be placed on a refrigerator shelf as you like.
Food Storage Tips
Wash foods before storing.
Divide and separate foods into
smaller pieces.
Place watery foods or foods with
much moisture in front of shelves
(close to door side).
• If they are placed close to the
cold air spout, they can be
frozen.
Warm or hot foods should be
cooled down enough before
storing to reduce power
consumption and to enhance
refrigeration performance.
Be careful in storing such tropical
fruit as bananas, pineapples,
tomatos, for they can easily be
deteriorate in lower temperature.
Keep enough space between the
foods as possible. If too tight or
too close, cold air circulation is
hindered, resulting in poor
refrigeration.
Never forget to cover or wrap
foods to prevent odour of foods.

HOW TO USE THE AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER
(For Dispenser models: GC*200NGWC / GC*200NHWC)
• About 10 icecubes (7~8 times a day) are made at one time. If the ice storage case is full, ice making
stops.
• It is normal for the icemaker to make banging sounds when the icecubes are falling into the ice storage
case.
•To prevent a bad odour or smells, regularly clean the Icecubes Storage Case.
• If the amount of ice in the storage case is not sufficient, the ice may not be dispensed. Wait a day or so
to make more ice.
• If the ice does not dispense easily, ensure the dispenser outlet is not blocked.
In case the icemaker doesn’t work
If the icecubes get stuck and not dispensed
• Pull out the ice storage case and separate the icecubes any icecubes that may have stuck together.
• If the amount of water which is supplied to the icemaker needs adjusting. Call for the service agent.
In case of power failure
• The icecubes in the case may melt to flow down to the freezer room.
If long hours' of power failure is predicted, pull out the case, remove the icecubes in it and replace it
back.
Note
Use only the ices out of this refrigerator.

Before You Call for Service...
Please checkup the following troubleshooting tips before you call for service !
Problem Checkup Point Action
It never gets cold inside.
Freezing & refrigerating is
not so good.
1
Plug in the refrigerator.
2
Set the temperature mode to Middle or
High.
3
Move to a place where there is no
direct sunlight, no heat appliences
around.
4
Keep sufficient space (more than 10cm)
between refrigerator back and the wall.
Foods in the refrigerator get
frozen.
1
Set the temperature to [Middle] or
[Low].
2
Foods can be frozen if ambient
temperature is below 5°C. Move to a
place where the temperature is over

Before You Call for Service...
Before You Call for Service...
SOMETHING STRANGE ?
DON’T WORRY. HERE IS THE ANSWER.
Case Explanation
• Pipes (refrigerant vessel) are placed beneath the
surface to prevent moisture forming on it.
• When you close the door and then open again
immediately, the door is not easy to open. Warm air
rushes into the inside to make the pressure difference.
In this case wait for a minute, then it will open easily.
• When the compressor starts to run or stops, refrigerant
which makes the inside cold flowing in the pipes can
make such a sound.
• Defrosted water can also make such a sound. (This
refrigerator adopts an automatic defrosting system.)
• Inside parts shrink and/or expand due to temperature
change — When the inside gets cold or when the door
is open — such sound can be made.
• Compressor or fans for cold air circulation can make
such working sound. (If the refrigerator is not level, the
sound can be louder.)
Frost and/or dew can be made in the following cases ;
•High temperature and/or high humidity around the
refrigerator
• When doors are open too long
• Foods with much moisture are stored uncovered or
unwrapped
❈ You can see the same appearance when cold water
is poured in a glass cup and dew is forming on the
surface of it.
• The light bulb radiates heat while it is on, so when
doors are open too long, dew can form on the light
cover due to temperature difference.
• In case it is highly humid around the refrigerator,
moisture in the air sticks to the surface to form the dew.
Front and side of
refrigerator feels warm or
hot.
Doors do not open easily.
It sounds like water is
flowing from the
refrigerator.
Something cracking or
click sound.
Humming or buzz sound.
Dew or frost on the wall and/or
food container surface in the
freezer and refrigerator
compartment.

REFRIGERATOR LEVELING & DOOR ADJUSTMENT (IF NEEDED.)
Refrigerator must be level in order to maintain optimal performance and desirable front appearance.
(If the floor beneath the refrigerator is uneven, freezer and refrigerator doors look unbalanced.)
In case freezer door is lower than refrigerator door...
Insert a screw driver (flat tip) into a groove of the right wheel (bottom of
refrigerator) and turn it clockwise until the door is balanced.
(clockwise to raise refrigerator door; counterclockwise to lower)
In case refrigerator door is lower than freezer door...
Insert a screw driver (flat tip) into a groove of the left wheel (bottom of freezer)
and turn it clockwise until the door is balanced.
(clockwise to raise freezer door; counterclockwise to lower)
Front Cover
After installation and/or door leveling, fasten front cover with screws.
(Remove the screws on the front bottom panel first. Click and screw the cover)
Caution
• The front of refrigerator needs to be higher just a little than the back for easy door closing, but
if the wheel is raised too much for door balance, i.e. front of refrigerator is higher than the back,
it can be difficult to open the door.

Installation Preparation
HOW TO INSTALL WATER LINE (DISPENSER MODELS ONLY)
1. The water pressure should be 3kgf/cm2 or more to run the
automatic icemaker.
❈ Checkup your tap water pressure; if a cup of 180cc is full
within 10 seconds, the pressure is OK.
2. When installing the water tubes, ensure they are not close to
any hot surfaces.
3. The water filter only filters water; it does not eliminate any
bacteria or microbes.
4. If the water pressure is not so high to run the icemaker, call
the local plumber to get an additional water pressure pump.
5. The filter life depends on the amount of use. We recommend
you replace the filter at least once every 6months. When
attaching the filter, place it for easy access (removing &
replacing)
6. After installation of refrigerator and water line system, select
[WATER] on your control panel and press it for 2~3 minutes to
supply water into the water tank and dispense water.
7. Use sealing tape to every connection of pipes/tubes to ensure
there is no water leak.
8. The water tube should be connected to the cold water line.
