caused by current leakage from the refrigerator.
- Current leakage may result in an electric shock, re, explosion, or problems with the
product.
- Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If it is
necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a
3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the

CAUTION
• The refrigerator must be levelled on a at, solid oor. Failing to do so can cause
damage to the refrigerator or physical injury.
• Levelling must be performed with the refrigerator empty. Make sure no food items are
inside the refrigerator.
• Also, open the freezer drawer and remove the lower basket.
• For safety reasons, adjust the refrigerator so that the front is a little higher than the
rear.
Level the refrigerator using the special screws (levellers) on the front legs. Use a at-head
screwdriver to turn the levellers.
Installation
• To adjust the height on one side: Insert
a at-head screwdriver into a notch in
the leveller on that side. (left or right)
Turn the leveller clockwise to raise the
refrigerator. Turn it counterclockwise to
lower. Repeat on the other side.

STEP 7 Connect the water dispenser line
A water dispenser with a lter is one of the helpful features on your new refrigerator. To
help promote better health, the water lter removes unwanted particles from your water.
However, it does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You may need to purchase a
water purifying system to do that.
The water line also connects to the ice maker. For the ice maker to operate properly,
water pressure of 20-125 psi is required.
If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 20 psi), you can
install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.
After you have connected the water line, make sure the water storage tank inside the
refrigerator is properly lled. To do this, press the water dispenser lever until water runs
from the water outlet.
Installation
• Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your retailer. We

2. Open the door, and check if the interior light lights up.
3. Set the temperature to the coldest setting, and wait for about an hour. Then, the
freezer will be slightly chilled, and the motor should be running smoothly.
4. Wait until the refrigerator reaches the set temperature. Now the refrigerator is ready
for use.
STEP 9 Final check
When installation is complete, conrm that:
• The refrigerator is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded properly.
• The refrigerator is installed on a at, level surface with a reasonable clearance from
walls and cabinets.
• The refrigerator is level and is sitting rmly on the oor.
• The door opens and closes freely, and the interior light turns on automatically when

Water/Ice dispenser
Using the dispenser, you can dispense water with or without ice.
The water dispenser offers 3 options: chilled water, cubed ice, and crushed ice. To
dispense chilled water, press Water on the dispenser panel. Put a water glass under the
dispenser, and then push the dispenser lever.

To dispense water with ice
1. With the Ice Maker enabled, press
Cubed Ice or Crushed Ice to select the
ice type.
2. Put a water glass under the dispenser,
and then push the dispenser lever with
the glass. Ice will be dispensed from the
dispenser.
3. Press Water to select water.
4. Push the dispenser lever with the
glass. Water will be dispensed from the
dispenser.
NOTE
• The dispenser will stop dispensing if you keep pushing the dispenser lever for about 1
minute. To dispense more water, release and push the lever again.
• Make sure the glass is in line with the dispenser to prevent the dispensed water from
spilling out.
• If you do not use the water dispenser for 2-3 days, the dispensed water may have an
abnormal smell or taste. This is not a system failure. Discard the rst 1-2 glasses of
water.
Operations
Ice maker
The refrigerator has a built-in ice maker that automatically dispenses ice so that you can
enjoy ltered water with cubed or crushed ice.
Ice making
After you have installed your refrigerator and plugged it in, follow these instructions to
ensure proper ice making and to keep the ice bucket full of ice:
1. Let the refrigerator operate for at least 24 hours to ensure optimal performance.
2. Dispense the rst 4 to 6 ice cubes into a glass.
3. Wait another 8 hours and dispense another 4 to 6 ice cubes.
4. Then, wait another 16 hours and dispense the rst glass-full of ice.
NOTE
• If you consume all the ice at once, you must wait 8 hours before dispensing the rst 4
to 6 cubes. This ensures that the ice bucket is lled with ice properly.
• Ice cubes generated rapidly may look white, which is normal.

If You Turn the Ice Maker Off
If you press and hold Ice Maker for more than 3 seconds to turn the ice maker off, make
sure to remove all ice cubes from the ice bucket. Remaining ice cubes may clump together,
making it difcult to remove them.
To remove the ice bucket, see the Ice bucket section on page 52.
NOTE
• Removal of the ice bucket does not affect the thermal and mechanical performance of
the refrigerator.
Water clouding
Water supplied to the refrigerator ows through a core alkaline lter. During this ltering
process, the water pressure of the water increases and the water becomes saturated with
oxygen and nitrogen. This causes the water to look misty or cloudy temporarily when
dispensed. This is normal and the water will look clear after a few seconds.

Reverse osmosis water ltration system
The water pressure of the water supply system to a reverse osmosis water ltration
system must be between 35 psi and 120 psi (241 kPa and 827 kPa).
The water pressure of the reverse osmosis water ltration system to the refrigerator’s
cold water line must be at least 40 psi (276 kPa). If the water pressure is below these
specications:
• Check if the sediment lter in the reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the lter
if necessary.
• Rell the water tank in the reverse osmosis system with water.
• If your refrigerator has a water lter, it may further reduce the water pressure when
used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water lter.
