Water supply installation
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 ft (8 m). Be careful for
the tube to avoid being kinked. If the tube is 26 ft (8 m) or longer it may cause
trouble in water feed.
Install the water supply line where it will not be affected by heat.
Mount them in the reverse sequence of removal after they pass through the access
door.

Installation
Water connection instruction guide
Read all directions carefully before you begin.
Connecting
the refrigerator
to a water source
Connect to a potable water supply only.
•
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
21 ~ 121 psi (1.5~8.5 kgf/cm2).

•
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
/

-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
/

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

-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.

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.
Connect the tubing to
the refrigerator
Tighten any connections that leak.
Plug In the Refrigerator
Arrange the coil of copper tubing behind the refrigerator so it does not vibrate
against the back of the refrigerator or against the wall. Push the refrigerator
back to the wall.

Suggestion on food storage
33
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 be broken 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 made of metal, with wet hands and place
glass products in the freezer compartment.
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.

If you keep the refrigerator in a hot and humid place, frequent openning of the door

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 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. 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 or overheated. Also verify the power
plug is inserted completely into power outlet.
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.

It is Normal...
The following occurrences are normal.
Noise
Occurrence
When you hear "Tick" or

When you hear the sound of
wind such as "Shoo~" or
"Shik" right after you close
the door
When you hear the
vibrating sound
When you hear a loud
sound after installing the
product for the first time
Solution
This is the sound of various parts expanding/contracting
or various control devices operating depending on the
temperature change within the refrigerator.
This is the count of compressor or fan operating when
the operation of the refrigerator is starting or ending. This
is the same phenomenon of the sound generated when
starting or turning off the engine of a car.
This is the sound of refrigerant changing the condition in
the freezer/refrigerator. When the liquid changes to gas,
you will hear the sound of water flowing and when gas
changes to liquid, you will hear the sound.
This is the sound generated when the internal pressure is
temporarily lowered when the warm air entered through
the refrigerator or freezer is cooled fast.
If the refrigerator is installed on wooden floor or wooden
wall, or if the refrigerator is not leveled properly, the
sound can be loud from the vibration.
When you operate the refrigerator for the first time, the
refrigerator will operate at high speed to cool fast and the
sound can seem louder. When the internal temperature
falls below a certain level, the noise will subside.
Door open
When the door is slightly
opened after closing the
door
Depending on the force or speed of closing the
refrigerator or freezer door, the door can open slightly
and then get closed.
Be careful not to close the door to hard.
When external air flows into the cool inner surface of the
refrigerator, icing/dew drops can be formed.
Especially, this will happen more easily when you open
and close the refrigerator door more frequently.
Also if the humidity of the installed location is high or
during the rainy season or on a rainy day, dew drops can
form on the outer side of the refrigerator. This is a
natural phenomenon that occurs during the humid
weather. Wipe the water drops with a dry cloth.
Heat pipes are installed around the front part of the
refrigerator and on the divider of the freezer and
refrigerator to prevent the dew drops from forming. The
refrigerator may feel warmer after the installation or
during the hot summer, but this is not a problem and
you can be rest assured.
