Feed water pipe installation



Automatic ice maker operation needs water pressure of 147~834 kPa (1.5~8.5 kgf/cm2) (That is, an instant paper cup (180 cc) will be fully filled within 3 sec.).



If water pressure does not reach the rating 147 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2) or below, it is necessary to purchase a separate pressure pump for normal automatic icing and cool water feed.



Keep the total length of the feed water pipe tube within 8 m and be careful for the tube not be bent. If the tube is 8 m or longer it may cause trouble in water feed owing to the drain water pressure.



Install the feed water pipe tube at a place free from heat.

Before

installation



Connect to a potable water supply only.

Warning

This appliance contains fluids (refrigerant and lubricant) and is made of parts and materials which are reusable and/or recyclable. All the important materials should be sent to the collection center of waste material and can be reused after rework (recycling). For recycling, please contact the local recycling authority.

Disposal of the

Connect to a potable water supply only.

Warning

•

If operating the refrigerator before installing the water connection, turn icemaker to the OFF position to prevent operation without water.

•

All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.

•

Use copper tubing and check for leaks.

•

Install copper tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain above freezing.

•

It may take up to 24 hours for your icemaker to begin producing ice.

IMPORTANT

The icemaker water valve contains a flow washer which is used as a water pressure regulator.

The icemaker needs to be connected to a cold water line with water pressure 20 ~ 120 psi (lb/inch2)

Tools required

•

Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a 1/4-inch saddle-type shut-off valve, a union, and copper tubing. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or 3/16-inch saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.

NOTE

Installation

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the pressure on the line. It may help to open an outside faucet to allow the water to drain from the line in the house.

3. Find a

-inch vertical COLD water pipe near the refrigerator.

Connect

the tubing to

water line

•

Horizontal pipe will work, but the following precaution must be taken: Drill on the top of the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill. This also keeps normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

NOTE

4. To determine the length of copper tubing you will need, measure from the connection on the lower left rear of the refrigerator to the water pipe. Add 7 feet (2.1m) to allow for moving refrigerator for cleaning. Use

-inch O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of

copper tubing are cut square.

5. Using a drill, drill a

-inch hole in the cold water pipe you have selected.

6. Fasten shut-off valve to cold water pipe with pipe clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the

" drilled hole in the water pipe and the washer is under the pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws carefully and evenly so the washer makes a watertight seal. Do not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing, especially if soft (coiled) copper tubing is used. Now you are ready to connect the copper tubing.

7. Slip the compression sleeve and the compression nut onto the copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto the outlet end with a wrench. A flare nut wrench works best, but an open end wrench will suffice. Do not overtighten.

8. Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink, and turn on the main water supply. Flush out the tubing until the water is clear. Turn off the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper tubing as shown below.

Installation

Before making the connection to the refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.

• If your refrigerator does not have a water filter, we recommend installing

one. If your water supply has sand or particles, that could clog the screen of the refrigerator’s water valve. Install the filter in the water line near the refrigerator.

1. Remove the plastic flexible cap from the water valve.

2. Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the end of the tubing as shown.

3. Insert the end of the copper tubing into the connection as far as possible. While holding the tubing, tighten the fitting.

The first ice and water may include particles or odor from the feed water pipe or feed water box. This is necessary in case that the refrigerator has not been used for a long time.

Keep children away from the dispenser.

Children may push switch incorrectly bad or damage lamps.

Be careful that food is not block the ice passage.

If foods are placed at the entrance of ice passage, ice may not be dispensed. The ice passage may also be covered with ice powder if splinter ice is used only. This time, remove the ice powder accumulated.

Never store beverage cans or other foods in ice storage bin for the purpose of rapid cooling.

Such actions may damage the automatic ice maker.

Never use thin crystal glass or crockery to collect ice.

Such glasses or containers may be broken.

Put ice first into a glass before filling water or other beverages.

Water may be splashed if ice is added to existing liquid in a glass.

Never touch a hand or other tools on ice outlet.

Touch may cause a part breakage or hand injury.

Never remove the ice maker cover. Sometimes level the surface so that the ice storage bin is fully filled with ice.

Ice is piled up just near the ice maker. So, such status may be considered, by the ice maker, that the ice storage bin is fully filled and ice making operation may stop.

If discolored ice is dispensed, immediately contact service center, stopping use. Never use too narrow or deep glass.

Ice may be jammed in ice passage and, thus, the refrigerator may be failed.

Keep the glass at a proper distance from ice outlet.

A glass too close to the outlet may hinder ice from coming out.

Suggestion on food storage

Storing foods



Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and thawed is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor.



Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, and melons.



Allow hot food to cool prior to storing, placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to higher energy consumption.



When storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.



Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator temperatures even.



Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator, and cause temperatures to rise.



Never keep too much food in door rack because they may push against by inner racks so that the door cannot be fully closed.



Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.



Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrient.



When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer shelf, not in the door rack.



Do not touch the cold foods or containers- especially made of metallic -, with wet hands and place glass products in the freezer compartment.

- That’s why you may have chilblains and they may be broken when their inner matters

are frozen, causing personal injury.



Avoid placing moist food in top refrigerator shelves, it could freeze from direct contact with chilled air.



Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and wiped, and packed food should be wiped, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.



When storing eggs in their storage rack or box, ensure that they are fresh, and always store them in an upright position, which keeps them fresh longer.

Care and maintenance

General information

During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator in operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life. When you plan not to operate, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave each door OPEN to prevent odor formation.

Vacation time

Power failure

If you move

Anti

condensation

pipe

Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.

Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator. To avoid damaging the height adjusting screws, turn them all the way into the base.

The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especially just after installation. Don’t be alarmed. This is due to the anti-condensation pipe, which pumps hot refrigerator to prevent “sweating” on the outer cabinet wall.

Cleaning

Regular cleaning is recommended. Wash all compartments a baking soda solution or a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry.

Please verify that the power cord is not damaged, power plug is not overheated, or power plug is well inserted into the power consent.

Always remove power cord from the wall outlet prior to cleaning in the vicinity of electrical parts (lamps, switches, controls, etc.). Wipe up excess moisture with a sponge or cloth to prevent water or liquid from getting into any electrical part and causing an electric shock. Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse abrasive cleaners, strong alkaline solutions, flammable or toxic cleaning liquids on any surface. Do not touch frozen surfaces with wet or damp hands, because damp object will stick or adhere to extremely cold surfaces.

It is important that your refrigerator be kept clean to prevent undesirable odors. Spilled food should be wiped up immediately, since it may acidify and stain plastic surfaces if allowed to settle.

Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or detergent to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean damp cloth and then dry.
