Operation
ENGLISH
Throw away the first few batches of ice (about 24 cubes) and water (about 7 glasses) first made after refrigerator installation.
The first ice and water may include particles or odor from the feed water pipe or feed water box. This is also necessary if the refrigerator has not been used for a long time.
Children should be supervised when using the dispenser.
Be careful that frost does not block the ice passage.
The ice passage may become blocked with frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates by removing the ice bin and clearing the passage with a rubber spatula. Dispensing cubed ice can also help prevent frost buildup.
Never store beverage cans or other items in the ice bin for the purpose of rapid cooling.
Doing so may damage the icemaker or the containers may burst.
Never use thin crystal glass or crockery to collect ice.
Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments in the ice.
Dispense ice into a glass before filling it with water or other beverages.
Splashing may occur if ice is dispensed into a glass that already contains liquid.
To avoid personal injury, keep hands out of the ice door and passage.
Part breakage or injury may occur.
Never remove the icemaker cover.
If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water filter and water supply. If the problem continues, contact service center. Do not use the ice or water until the problem is corrected.
Never use a glass that is exceptionally narrow or deep.
Ice may jam in the ice passage and refrigerator performance may be affected.
Keep the glass at a proper distance from the ice outlet.
A glass held too close to the outlet may prevent ice from dispensing.
CAUTION

Storing Food
25
Food storage guide
• 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 that spoils quickly, such as bananas and melons, at low
temperatures.
• Allow hot food to cool prior to storing it in the refrigerator. Placing hot food in the
refrigerator could spoil other food and lead to a higher energy consumption.
• Tightly wrap food or store it in a container with a lid.
• 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 causes temperatures to rise.
Do not overfill the door bins.
• Do not store bottles or glass in the freezer compartment. They may break or
shatter.
• Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and
nutrients.
When storing frozen food for an extended period of time, such as ice cream, keep it on a shelf, not in a door bin.
• Do not touch frozen containers made of metal with wet hands.
• Always clean food prior to refrigerating. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and dried. 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.

• If you keep the refrigerator in a hot and humid place, frequent opening of the
