INSTALLING THE WATER DISPENSER LINE
A water dispenser with a fi lter is one of the helpful features on your new refrigerator. To help promote better health, the water fi 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 20~125psi ( 138~862kPa) is
If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 20psi), 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 fi lled. To do this, press the water dispenser lever until the water runs from the water outlet.
Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your dealer. We recommend using a water line installation kit that contains copper tubing and ¼” compression nut.

Reverse Osmosis Water Supply IMPORTANT:
The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the refrigerator needs to be between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa). If a reverse osmosis water fi ltration system is connected to your cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa.) If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
Check to see whether the sediment fi lter in the t reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the fi lter if necessary. Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis t system to refi ll after heavy usage. If your refriegerator has a water lter, it may
t
further reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system.
Remove the water fi lter. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualifi ed plumber.
CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE
Basic temperature of Freezer and Refrigerator Compartments
The basic temperature and recommended temperatures of the Freezer and Refrigerator Compartments are 0°F and 37°F(or -18°C and 3°C) respectively. If the temperature of the Freezer and Refrigerator Compartments are too high or low, adjust the temperature manually.
CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE
Controlling the Freezer temperature
The Freezer temperature can be set between 5°F(-15°C) and -8°F(-23°C) to suit your particular needs. Press the Freezer button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the temperature display. Keep in mind that foods like ice cream may melt at 4°F(-15°C).
The temperature display will move sequentially from -8°F(-23°C) to 5°F(-15°C). When the display reaches 5°F, it will begin again at -8°F(-23°C). Five seconds after the new temperature is set, the display will again show the actual current freezer temperature until the new temperature is reached.
Controlling the Refrigerator temperature
The Refrigerator temperature can be set between 44°F(7°C) and 34°F(1°C) to suit your particular needs. Press the Fridge button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the temperature display.
The temperature control process for the Fridge works just like the Freezer process. Press the Fridge button to set your desired temperature. After a few seconds, the Fridge will begin adjusting towards the newly set temperature. This will be refl ected in the digital display.
The temperature of the Freezer or the Refrigerator may rise from opening the doors too frequently, or if a large amount of warm or hot food is placed in either side. This may cause the digital display to blink. Once the Freezer and Refrigerator temperature return to their normal set temperatures, the blinking will stop. If the blinking continues, you may need to “reset” the Refrigerator. Try unplugging the appliance, wait for around 10 minutes and then plug the power cord back in.

USING THE COLD WATER DISPENSER
Using the Water dispenser (RF261B, RF26H)
Place a glass underneath the water outlet and push gently against the water dispenser lever with your glass. Make sure the glass is in line with the dispenser to prevent the water from splashing out.
If you have just installed the refrigerator or installed a new water fi lter, Flush 3 gallons through fi lter before use (fl ush approximately 6 minutes). Make sure water fl ows cleanly before drinking.
If you have a long vacation or business trip,
CAUTION
supply to the Refrigerator. This will help prevent accidental leakages.
Water clouding phenomenon
All water provided to refrigerators fl ows through the core fi lter which is an alkaline water fi lter. In this process, the pressure in the water that has fl owed out of the fi lter gets increased, and oxygen and nitrogen become saturated. When this water fl ows out in the air, the pressure plummets and the oxygen and nitrogen get supersaturated so that they turn into gas bubbles. The water could look misty due to these oxygen bubbles.The water may look temporarily cloudy due to these oxygen bubbles. After a few seconds, the water will look clear.

The water tank’s capacity is approximately one third (1/3) of a gallon. Please wait 1 second before removing the cup after dispensing water to prevent spills.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The refrigerator does not work at all or it does not chill suffi ciently.
The food in the fridge is frozen.
You hear unusual noise or sounds.
The cabinet-door sealing area of the appliance is hot and condensation is occurring.
Ice Maker is not producing ice.
You can hear water bubbling in the refrigerator.
There is a bad smell in the refrigerator.
Frost forms on the walls of the freezer.
Water dispenser is not functioning.
Auto close system does not work with the freezer door.
Ř Check if the power plug is properly connected. Ř Check if the set temperature on the digital display is warmer than the freezer or fridge
inner temperature. If it is, set the refrigerator colder.
Ř Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located near a heat source? Ř Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall, preventing proper ventilation?
Ř Check if the set temperature on the digital display is too low. Ř Try setting the refrigerator to a warmer temperature. Ř Is the temperature in the room too low? Set the refrigerator warmer. Ř Did you store the food which is juicy in the coldest part of the refrigerator? Try moving
those items to the other shelves in the fridge instead of keeping them in the colder areas or bins.
Ř Check if the refrigerator is level and stable. Ř Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall, preventing proper ventilation?Try moving the back of the refrigerator at least 2 inches from the wall. Ř Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator? Ř A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. This is normal and occurs because
various accessories are contracting or expanding according to the temperature of the refrigerator interior.
Ř If it sounds as if something is hitting something else inside the refrigerator, this is normal.
The sound is caused by the compressor operating at high capacity.
Ř Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the vertical hinged section of
the refrigerator to prevent condensation.
Ř Is the refrigerator door ajar? Condensation can occur when you leave the door open for
a long time.
Ř Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line before making ice? Ř Ř Did you manually stop the ice making function? Ř Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer temperature lower.
Ř This is normal. The bubbling comes from refrigerant circulating through the refrigerator.
Ř Check for spoiled food. Ř Foods with strong odors (for example, fi sh) should be tightly covered. Ř Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or suspicious food.
Ř Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate freely. Ř Allow suffi cient space between the stored foods for effi cient air circulation. Ř Is the freezer drawer closed properly?
Ř Ř Has the water supply line tubing been crushed or kinked? Ř Make sure the tubing is free and clear of any obstruction. Ř Is the water tank frozen because the fridge temperature is too low?
Try selecting a warmer setting on the Digital display.
Ř Is there an imbalance between the right and left parts of the door? Ř Open and close the door smoothly 1~2 times. After you do this, the auto close system
usually works properly again.
Ř Try opening the door smoothly to avoid unbalancing the right part and the left part of
the door.
