SUPPLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH PLUMBING AND RELEVANT WATER UTILITY COMPANY REGULATIONS.
Connect the appliance to a drinking water line only.
Minimum pressure: 0.17 MPa (1.72 bar, 24.95 PSI)
Maximum pressure: 0.82 MPa (8.25 bar, 119.66 PSI)
Pressure over 0.82 MPa (8.25 bar, 119.66 PSI): install a pres-
sure limiter between drinking water connection and hose set.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The water should be connected by a competent plumber according to the local regulations of the water supply company.

When cabinet becomes hot due to high room temperature, storage of too much food or
shutdown of the compressor, provide proper ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation.
Condensation on the exterior surface and door gaskets of the refrigerator is normal when
the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensated water using a clean cloth.
Buzz: The compressor may buzz during operation, this noise is particularly high upon start
or stop. This is normal.
Cracking: Refrigerant flowing inside of the appliance may produce a cracking noise which is
normal.
After installing the water line and starting the refrigerator, it takes 12 hours to produce ice
cubes.
Turn on the ice maker.
Check whether the water pressure is 30-100 psi and the water line is connected normally.
Make sure the water supply valve is open and check the water pipe is not bent.
Make sure whether the ice storage box is installed.

dripping, check the connection of the water line.
If the refrigerator is not used for more than four days, dispense at least one gallon of water.
Replace the filter in time.
