Warning
opening.
Precautions of Using the Water and Ice Dispenser:
Do not use a cup that is too deep, too narrow, or too soft. Keep the cup as proper distance from the dispenser. Raise the cup near the ice outlet to prevent an ice cube jumping or splashing out. If the cup is too close, the ice might break when it hits the bottom. 5 seconds after you take ice, you will here a sound. This is the sound of the ice chute door closing. After you take ice ice and release the lever, keep your cup in the ice outlet for 2-3 seconds, as cubed ice might still come out. After you take water, keep your cup under the dispenser for 2-3 seconds, as water might still come out. Do not pour extra water into the spill shelf. Wipe water dripped from the drink dispenser with a cloth. If you choose cubed ice right after crushed ice, you may get some crushed ice mixed in. If you only use crushed ice, the outlet may become blocked by crushed ice. Remove the remaining crushed ice to continue using. Do not put a drink bottle or other food in the ice
When you are making cubed ice, the water valve will make a noise. This is normal.
container for fast cooling. This could damage the ice maker. Do not touch the ice outlet by hand - it may cause injury to your hand. Do not dismantle the ice maker cover. Throw out the first 7 glasses of water and 20 ice cubes to flush out impurities in the pipe. Throw away the first several batches of ice cubes after a long period of non use. Do not put purchased cubed ice in the ice container. It may not crush or dispense well. If cubed ice is too small, it means the inlet water amount is too small. If cubed ice is too big, or there is a water overflow in the ice maker that causes ice blocks to occur, the inlet water amount is too big. Water Ice tray fill adjustments can be made on the Freezer control by pressing the (<) and (>) buttons for 3 seconds until you hear a chime. The display will read the default setting of 40 (for 4 second water flow in). If you press the (>) button it can raise up flow rate to 60 (a max of 6 second fill rate). Check water tray level to not over fill the ice tray.
Page 17
Usage of Ice Maker and Cold Water Dispenser
The ice content will depend on room temperature, door openings, water pressure, freezer temperature,
etc. It is considered normal when ice cubes stick together.
Wait 24 hours after installing your refrigerator before you begin using the ice maker feature. This gives the ice maker time to load the ice bucket.
Occasionally you may hear some sounds, like water flowing or ice dropping. These sounds are normal. Occasionally, in periods of infrequent ice use, cubes may stick together and clog the dispenser. Remove the ice cream holder and lift up the ice bucket. Shake it from side to side to dislodge the cubes. Return the ice bucket and ice cream holder. Cubes should dispense normally now.
If you do not use ice often:
Because of the cool air circulation, there is a temperature difference among
different sections in the cabinet. Therefore, different foods should be put in
the different temperature sections.
1. eggs, butter, cheese, etc 2. cans, glass jars, spices, batteries, gallon milk, etc.
3. soft drinks, gallon milk, bottled foods 4. preserved foods, cans, jars, etc.

Older ice cubes can get stale. Clean the ice bucket periodically and use warm water to clean. Before putting it back, make sure to dry it so new ice does not stick to it.
When you do no use the ice container for an extended time:
If you will not be using the ice container for a long time, throw out the remaining ice cubes, wash the
container with warm water, dry it with a towel, and put it back in the refrigerator. Then close the
valve between the water supply and the fridge.
Removing and Installing the Ice Container
Removing the Ice Container
Take down food in the ice cream shelf. Raise the
center of the container away from the shelf frame,
hold down the front, and pull the container out.
Reinstall the Ice Container
Reinstall the ice container and fix the clamp in the lower right side
into the groove on the back wall. If the ice container cannot be fully
inserted, remove it and turn the driving device in a 1/4 circle. Try to
reinstall the ice container. Repeat until the clamp can be fixed in the
groove on the two slide ways of the shelf.
Precaution when Refrigerating Food
putting
Food should be stored based on use. Food should be classified according to its use. Daily food should be put in front of the shelves in order to shorten the time that the door is open. This will prevent food spoilage and save energy.
Do not put too much food in the fridge and overcrowd it. The stored food in the fridge should have space around it and not touching other food. This will allow better air circulation and uniform temperatures.
Before storing food in the fridge, it is suggested to cover all food. It will keep fruits and vegetables moist and fresh, and prevent mixing of food odors.
The stored food should not be near the inner walls. Avoid storing food against the inside walls. This will protect the food from freezing. There should be a space between the food and inner liners.
Page 18
Radish leaves should be cut off - otherwise the leaves will absorb some of the nutrients from the vegetables.
Defrost frozen food in the fresh food compartment or convertible compartment to save energy
Some foods, like onion, bananas, garlic, and certain root and stem vegetables can be stored at room temperature. It is not always necessary to store them in the fridge.
Refrigeration can accelerate the ripening of certain fruits like melons, bananas, pineapples, and more. Do not keep these fruits in the fridge unless you want them to ripen faster.
Before putting hot food into the freezer, cool it to room temperature.
Separate food into small batches to make it easier to freeze and defrost for later. Do not freeze in batches larger than 5.5 lbs. each.
Before freezing food, it is better to pack it securely and make sure the outside of the package is dry. The packing material should be flavorless, airproof, nontoxic, and contamination-free to avoid tainting the food inside.
It is suitable to store food for a long period of time.
The temperature is very low, and can keep food fresh and safe for a long time. Therefore, food you intend to store for a long time should be kept in the freezer compartment. Follow the storage time indicated on the food package.
Shelf can be removed to clean
Move the shelf as shown in step 1. Raise the right side of the shelf as seen in step 2.
Write the date, expiration date, and food name on the outside of packing materials so you can be assured of the food and when it is safe to eat.
Take food from the freezer to defrost when needed. Defrosted food cannot be frozen again unless it is cooked. Otherwise, it will affect food quality and safety.
Do not put too much fresh food into the freezer at once. This could go beyond the freezer's cooling capacity. (Refer to "Technical Data")
Using the Ice Maker and Cold Water Dispenser
Preparation before using the ice maker and cold water dispenser.
Cut the water pipe according to need, and avoid bending the water pipe too much. Usually the length should be less than 5 m. If the water pipe is too long, the ice and water content are affected because of low water pressure. The water pipe cannot stand heat. Keep it away from heat sources. You may want to have a service engineer install the water pipe. During the first use, in order to supply water to the fresh food compartment, press the cold water button several times for 1 minute each. Do not press the cold water button for longer than a minute, to prevent overheating the water valve. Cold water will begin to flow from the outlet. Water supply pipe instruction: The cold water pressure should be 21-120 psi for automatic ice making. The purifier is only for filtering. It cannot sterilize or destroy anything - therefore, make sure to connect the water pipe to a drinkable water source.

Turn the bulb counterclockwise to take it out. Replace with a new bulb of the same or lower watts.
Reinstall by following these directions in reverse.
While storing frozen food like ice cream, be sure to put it all the way inside the freezer and not in or near the door. This keeps the frozen food colder.
show 1 and 2 on the drawingfor bulb removal
To prevent the pipe from freezing, do not install the water pipe in a place below 0 .
Open water valve to flush pipe, and check leakage in water pipe joints until water is clean.
When temperature of ice maker is equal to or below -15 , the ice maker will begin to make ice. (Throw out the
first several batches of ice cubes if you make ice after not having made it for a long time.)
After the fridge is installed, put the water supply pipe in a proper place to prevent pressing and damage.
The filter in the water pipe is there to filter impurities in the water and to make the ice chlorine and odor free.
After a long time of usage, if the cubed ice becomes smaller, it may mean that the filter is blocked from the
water impurities. After about 6 months of use, the "Change Filter" indicator light will turn on. At this time, we
suggest you call the number on the filter or go to an authorized Haier after-sale service center to buy a new filter.
After you change the filter, the indicator light will turn off. The refrigerator comes with a filter installed; after this
you have to buy and change the filter yourself.
The ice maker should only be connected to a source of drinkable water.
