Water supply installation
Pass the refrigerator laterally through the access
door as shown in the right figure.
Automatic icemaker operation needs water pressure of 21~121 psi (1.5~8.5
kgf/cm2) (That is, a paper cup (6 oz. or 180 cc) will be fully filled within
3 seconds.)
If water pressure does not reach the rating 21 psi (1.5 kgf/cm2) or below, it is
necessary to purchase a separate pressure pump for normal automatic icemaking
and cool water feed.
Keep the total length of the feed water pipe tube within 26’ (8 m). Be careful for the
tube to avoid being kinked. If the tube is 26’ (8 m) or longer it may cause trouble in
water feed.
Install the water supply line where it will not be affected by heat.
Connect to a potable water supply only.
Mount them in the reverse sequence of removal after they pass through the access
door.
Pass the

•
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
1
/
2
-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
1
/
4
-inch O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of
copper tubing are cut square.
5. Using a drill, drill a
1
/
4
-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
1
/
4
" 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.

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.
Connect the tubing to
the refrigerator
Tighten any connections that leak.

Operation
Throw away the ice (about 20 pieces) and water (about 7 glasses) first made after
refrigerator installation.
This is also necessary when the refrigerator has not been used for a long time.
Keep children away from the dispenser.
Children may play with or damage the controls.
Be careful that food does not block the ice passage.
If foods are placed at the entrance of ice passage, the
dispenser may malfunction. The passage may also
become blocked with frost if only crushed ice is used.
Remove the frost that accumulates.
Storing cans or other items in the ice bin may damage
the icemaker or the container may burst.
Never use thin crystal glass or crockery to collect ice.
Such glasses or containers may be broken, and glass fragments could be in the ice.
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.
Keep your hands out of the ice door and passage.
You might break something or injure yourself.
Never remove the ice maker cover.
Shake the ice bin occasionally to level the ice in it.
Sometimes the ice piles up near the icemaker, causing the icemaker to misinterpret the
bin level and stop producing ice.
If you find ice or water dispensed unexpectedly, contact an Authorized Service
Center. (Call 1-800-243-0000 24/7 and select the option to locate an authorized
servicer.)
Never use too narrow or deep glass.
Ice may be jammed in the ice passage and, thus, the refrigerator may fail.
Keep the glass at a proper distance from ice outlet.
A glass too close to the outlet may prevent 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 spoils easily at low temperatures, such as bananas and
melons.
Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Place 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.
- Damp skin may freeze upon contact with frozen surfaces, causing frostbite or other
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
Cleaning
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 to turn it off, 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
refrigerant to prevent sweating on the outer cabinet wall.
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.
