To avoid harm to the user, other persons or damage to property, please read and follow the warnings and cautions below and those given throughout this manual.
Warning
Caution
This pictograph indicates "There is high possibility of serious injury or death, if ignored".
This pictograph indicates "There is a high possibility of injury or damage to property if ignored".
When you install ... To avoid fire, electric shock, and injury.
Do not install the refrigerator in a place where it may come in contact with water.
Do not install the refrigerator in a place exposed to rain.
This may impair electricity insulation and cause electric shock or fire.
Do not connect the refrigerator plug to any wall outlet whose power capacity is less than the refrigerator's. Also, do not use power sources that are not a rated voltage.
If a power source is shared with other appliances using double or multipoint adapters, the adapter may heat up beyond the normal level and cause fire.
■ Do not use a damaged or loose
power plug or power outlet. This may cause fire or electric shock.
■ Do not cut, bend, fold
the power cord to avoid fire and electric shock.
■ Do not insert or remove
the power plug with wet hands.
■ Do not splash water on or inside
the refrigerator.
This may impair electricity insulation
causing electric shock or fire.
● This may also cause the gas leakage
because of pipe rust.
■ Do not disassemble, repair,
or modify your refrigerator by yourselves.
Please consult with a retailer
if any repair is required.
■ If the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
■ Do not put water containers or foreign
articles on the top of the refrigerator.
Opening and closing doors etc. may cause the articles on the top of the refrigerator may fall down, resulting in injury.
■ Do not use the refrigerator in the
atmosphere of flammable gas.
Sparks from points of electrical contacts such as door switches may ignite a fire.
■ Be sure to unplug the power
plug before maintaining the refrigerator.
● Be sure to hold the power plug to unplug.
■ Clean the dust on the power plug
frequently with a dry cloth.
Unplug the power plug and wipe it
with a dry cloth.
An insulation failure due to moisture, when dust
collects on the power plug, may cause fire.
■ Connect the power plug firmly to a
power outlet with the cord running down.
Connection of the power plug with the cord running up could apply stress on the cord and cause electrical short or overheat, which could result in electrical shock or fire.
Incomplete connection of the power plug could result in electrical shock or fire due to heat.

Before Use
A refrigerator is not an appliance that increases the freshness of food but an appliance to brake the food being spoiled to some extent. Please follow the User’s Guide carefully and take proper actions to keep food fresh.
1. Cleaning inside the refrigerator.
■ Wipe the surface gently with wet soft cloth.
2. Connect the refrigerator to an exclusive wall power outlet.
■ The refrigerator can be connected to an outlet soon after it is installed.
■ Surely use with the rated voltage and exclusive power outlet.
30 seconds after the power is connected, the compressor will start.
3. Allow enough duration for sufficient cooling before storing food.
■ It may take about 4 hours to fully cool down and could even take about 24 hours when the ambient temperature is high.
Optimal Food Storage
Keep enough space between food.
● Several food placed too close together may obstruct
the flow of cold air. Keep enough space.
Make food cool enough before putting it in the refrigerator.
● Putting warm food in the refrigerator raises the inside
temperature and wastes electricity.
Do not block the Cold Air Vent.
● This will adversely affect the cool air flow and may not
keep the temperature inside even. Moreover, it could result in food near the vent freezing.
Keep the food wrapped or sealed and store.
Using food wrap or sealed containers prevents the food from drying or transition of smells.
Keep food hygienic.
● A surprising amount of
unhygienic substances can be found on food.
Do not place warm food on the already chilled food.
● This will warm up the already chilled food.

How to remove a mass of ice from the Ice bank and Ice Dispenser Duct
1. Remove the ice bank from the freezer door. If you cannot remove it, take the following steps.
1.1 Remove all ice cubes from the ice bank until only the ice mass remains.
1.2 Place a glass at the ice outlet of the ice dispenser booth.
1.3 Gently pour warm water into the ice bank, continuing to do so until the tank can be removed.
2. Check the duct portion and the crusher case to be sure that there is no further icing or ice mass. If any should remain, remove it and clean the duct portion. Again if it is difficult to remove, pour warm water until the ice has melted enough to remove it, or in the case it is too hard to remove ice, dip the ice bank into water to melt the ice mass.
3. Check the crusher axle (Part of the motor box), make sure it is still correctly in place and not loose. If it is loose it is possible that a hole at the centre of the axle is deformed. In this case please contact your retailer or authorised service centre for assistance.
4. Re-assemble the ice bank.
5. Restart the refrigerator operation, and wait for a while until the freezer temperature reaches your desired setting. (The crusher must not be operated at temperatures above 0°C)
6. Check the crusher operation, motor movement and lid on/off.

Troubleshooting
Is the power plug supplied ?
Confirm that the refrigerator was installed properly.
Was the refrigerator just installed ?
Check the inside of the refrigerator.
Is there too much food in the refrigerator ?
Are there any hot items inside ?
Is the cold air outlet blocked by any food items ?
Is the freezer compartment temperature set to -16 ºC or -15 ºC, and is the refrigerator compartment temperature set to 6 ºC or 7 ºC ?
Check the power supply at the wall outlet.
Make sure the power supply cord is plugged firmly.
Check the fuse box for blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker.
Is your refrigerator in contact with direct sunlight ?
Is there a heat producing device such as a gas stove nearby ?
Is there sufficient open space around your refrigerator ?
Up to approximately 4 hours is required until your refrigerator cools
properly. In the summer, up to 24 hours may be required.
Set the freezer compartment temperature to -19 ºC or -18 ºC, and
set the refrigerator compartment to 3 ºC or 4 ºC.
Set the temperature inside the freezer compartment to -22 ºC
or -21 ºC, and inside the refrigerator compartment to 2 ºC or 3 ºC.
On very hot days, the cooling capacity could decrease, ice cream
could become soft, and the temperature in the door pockets could increase.
Is the door being opened frequently ?
Is the door touching food and not completely closing ?
Is there anything such as a plastic bag caught between the door gasket and the refrigerator main body, or are there any gaps?
Is it a hot summer day ?
● Because the freezer compartment has priority to be
cooled during
"Quick Freezing" operation, the temperature
inside the refrigerator compartment could increase.
Is the temperature for the refrigerator compartment set to 1 ºC or 2 ºC ?
Is the ambient temperature 5 ºC or less ?
Is any moist food being stored such that it is touching the back left wall of the refrigerator compartment ?
Has any moist food been placed in front of the cold air outlet or at the back of a refrigerator shelf ?
Avoid opening and closing the door as much as possible.
Moist food might freeze, so do not place it in front of the cold air
outlet or at the back of a refrigerator compartment shelf.
Change the temperature setting for the refrigerator compartment
to 3 ºC to 5 ºC. When set to 1 ºC to 2 ºC , food might freeze.
If the temperature in the refrigerator compartment is set to 6 ºC
or 7 ºC, food is less likely to freeze.
Because the food is touching the freezer compartment partition whose tenperature is comparatively low, the food might freeze. Either increase the temperature setting or move the food away from the compartment partition a little.
We recommend that you open and close the door quickly, and
open and close it as little as possible.
Confirm that there are no gaps when the door is closed.
When the door is closed, be sure that no food or plastic bags are
caught between the door and the refrigerator main body.
Problems Point to be checked
Does not cool at all.
Does not cool properly.
Food in the refrigerator compartment and vegetable compartment freezes.
Condensation (or frost) is forming.
Water is collecting either inside the refrigerator or on the floor.
Detailed Check Points and Countermeasures
When the humidity is so high, condensation might form on the outside of the unit, on the door gasket, or on the door. Also, after the door is opened and closed, the cold air might make the door surface fog up. This is not unusual.
Is condensation forming on the vegetable compartment drawer ?
Is the door opened for a long time or opened and closed frequently ?
Is the door touching food, etc., and not closing completely ?
Did any water in a plastic bottle spill ?
If the door is not closed completely, condensation drips onto the inside of the refrigerator or on the floor. Please close the door completely.
Store bottled water so it does not spill.
Is the door securely closed ?
If there are any gaps between the door and the refrigerator main body, not only will the temperature inside increase, but condensation or frost could also form. Please close the door securely.
Wipe it off with a dry cloth.
Condensation is less likely to form if the temperature setting for
the freezer compartment is changed to -18 ºC to -15 ºC.
This is because high humidity is maintained inside the drawer to prevent vegetables from drying out and to increase their life. Wipe with a dry cloth.
Decrease the number of times the door is opened and closed, and open and close the door quickly.

Has strong-smelling food been put inside without
being wrapped ?
Food smells like plastic.
The deodorizing function will not remove all odor.
Either wrap or seal such foods.
Sometimes the normal operating sound of the
refrigerator gets louder.
A sound like running water is emitted.
A knocking sound.
A sound like something is boiling (a bubbling sound).
A sizzling sound like when meat is being cooked.
A sound like something stuck in a machine.
A whirring sound.
A cracking sound. (This is heard inside the refrigerator
when the door is opened.
A hissing sound right after the door is closed. This is the sound of a temporary drop in air pressure when the air that entered into the refrigerator is suddenly cooled.
This is the sound of the plastic creaking due to a change in temperature (when the door is opened).
After installation, the refrigerator operates at full power to cool its interior, so it will make a louder sound.
This is the sound of the cooling fluid (refrigerant) flowing through the cooling device. This sound might also be heard when the compressor has stopped.
This is the sound of parts, such as the motor, which control the temperature inside the refrigerator running.
This is because many plastic parts are used inside the refrigerator.
As your food cools, the odor will gradually go away.
Unpleasant odor inside the refrigerator.
Very weak electrical shock is felt when touching the main body.
The refrigerator is noisy. Some kind of sound is being made. (These sounds are not a sign of malfunction.)
Problem
25
The front and back of the refrigerator is warm. Warm wind blows out from the bottom.
The heat exhaust pipe and fan release the heat inside
the refrigerator, so they might become hot.
The refrigerator occasionally accumulates static
electricity, but this is not a safety concern.
If this becomes an annoyance, earthing the refrigerator main body
is recommended.
The door feels heavy when trying to open it right after being closed.
This is caused by a temporary drop in air pressure due to the suddenly cooling of the air entering inside the refrigerator.
The door might feel heavy for a moment, but it will soon feel normal
again.
When one door is closed, the other door opens.
The compartments are connected by a cold air pathway, so the air pressure from the closing of one door might cause the other door to open temporarily.
Closing the doors slowly will eliminate this problem.
The temperature in these locations might reach 50 ºC to 60 ºC
immediately after your refrigerator is installed. This is not abnormal.
Check the Following First (Continued)
The refrigerator is noisy.
Is the floor stable ?
Is there any object between the refrigerator leg and
the floor where it is installed ?
Is the rear face touching a wall, etc. ?
Did the leg adjuster cover come off ?
Install the refrigerator on a stable, level floor, or in a place with a
stable board under it.
Install the refrigerator in a location with enough space around it.
Securely attach the leg adjuster cover.

Ice cubes stick together in the Ice Bank.
Ice or water smells.
Water is not dispensed.
Even when “CRUSHED” is selected, not only crushed ice but also ice cubes (uncrushed ice) is dispensed.
Detailed Check Points and Countermeasures
Is the ambient temperature low ? Is it a winter time ?● If the ambient temperature is low just like winter, the ice making
time can be longer.
Is there any gap between the door gasket and
refrigerator body ?
Close the door completely , if there is a gap.
The ice tray is grooved to have even water flow for all areas.
Therefore this groove may make projecting sections.
Was there any power failure ?
Have the doors been opened so often?
Is there any gap between the door gasket and
refrigerator body ?
Is the water in the Water Tank enough ? If the water is not sufficient, the ice cubes may be smaller than usual and thus may not be crushed.
If the Ice Dispenser has not been used for a long time, the ice cubes may become samller and thus may not be crushed.
If the water is not much, fill up the Water Tank with water upto
the "Full" line.
Due to unevenness of ice cubes, some small ice cubes will not be
crushed and will be dispensed, however, this not an abnormal situation.
Remove the Ice Bank ,discard old ice cubes ,and make new ice
cubes again.
Is the Water Tank or water purification Water Filter dirty ?
In order to prevent grime and hard water stains from building up,
make sure to rinse the Water Tank once a week.
Is not the water or ice fresh ?
Replace the water in the Water Tank once a week. And, first,
discard the existing ice cubes , then make new ice cubes.
Has the Ice Dispenser not been used for a long time ?● If the Ice Dispenser is not used for a long time, the ice cubes may
stick together. Therefore, it is recommended to use the Ice Dispenser as often as possible.
Since the temperature of the freezer compartment rose, thus the ice cubes melted and stick together. Remove the Ice Bank ,discard ice cubes ,and make new ice cubes again. And, make the door opening/closing frequency as little as possible.
If there is a gap, the freezer compartment temperature may rise and the ice cubes may stick together. Close the door completely.

What to Do in these Situations
Problems Point to be checked
Water from the Water Dispenser is not chilled.
Detailed Check Points and Countermeasures
Has the water just been put into the Water Tank ?
It may take 24 hours or even more to chill the water in the Water Tank
completely ,if the ambient temperature is high in the summer seasons, etc.. However, it will just take 8 to 9 hours to chill the tank-full of water.
If you need chilled water immediately, it is effective to put ice cubes into the
glass by using the Ice Dispenser and then to use the Water Dispenser.
When using the Water Dispenser, the water dispensed
in the beginning is not chilled enough.
Chilled water is supplied from the WaterTank in the refrigerator
compartment through the tubes which is placed in the compressor compartment, the bottom of the cabinet, and the door. Therefore, the water in the beginning may not be chilled ,because that water was not in the cold sections, however, after dispensing half of glass of water, chilled water will be dispensed.

● R600a refrigerant is flammable. But the refrigerant is sealed up by the refrigerate circuit, and never leaks by usual use. In case of the refrigerant circuit being damaged by any chance, please avoid the use of fire and electric product, open the window and ventilate. Afterwards, please contact Hitachi Service Center.
Severe warning signs for Disposal
Cyclopentane is used as in the insulation. The gases in insulation material require a special disposal procedure. Please contact your local authorities in regard to the environmentally safe disposal of this product.
This symbol mark means that used electrical and electronic products shall not be mixed with general household waste. Do not try to dismantle the system and unit by yourself as this could have harmful effects on your health and the environment. Refrigerators must be treated at a specialized treatment facility for recycling and recovery and shall not be disposed of in the municipal waste stream. Please contact the installer, dealer or local authority for more information.
This is not a malfunction of the refrigerator.
The surface of the
refrigerator is hot.
If a door is shut,
other doors may open.
Does the refrigerator make any
abnormal noises (sound)?
The refrigerator is equipped with the dew prevention and heat radiation tubes. The back and side plates may be heated especially when starting up or if the door is frequently opened and closed.
The two compartments are connected with an air duct. When closing one of the doors, the door may be opened by the air pressure through the duct. This is a normal phenomenon.
The sound like water flowing and boiling water is the sound of the cooling liquid (refrigerant).
A creaking sound comes from the storage compartment. It is the sound caused by friction of the parts due to temperature change.
Annoying sound is generated
by the refrigerator.
Operation sound lasts long. ● It is because the compressor operates in low-speed for conserving energy.
● It is because the system changes the operating power of the refrigerator according to the temperature change.
You may feel that the operation sound is larger because the comppressor operates in high-speed under the following conditions: the refrigerator does not cool fully on the occasion such as using it for the first time, opening/closing the door frequently, the surrounding temperature is high. The sound becomes more quiet after cooling fully. The compressor operates at low speed at night, for long vacations or absences, potentially creating large vibrations.
Operation sound sometimes
becomes louder.
