I'_ ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR
PROPER USAGE
• Inthe event of a power failure, call the local
office of your Electricity Company and ask how
long it is going to last.
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.
Should the power failure last more than 24
hours, remove and discard all frozen food.
• If a key is provided with refrigerator, the keys
should be kept out of the reach of children and
not be kept in the vicinity of the appliance.
• The appliance might not operate consistently
(frozen contents can thaw or temperatures
can become too warm in the frozen food
compartment) when sited for an extended
period of time in a location where ambient
air temperatures are constantly below the
temperatures for which the appliance is
designed.
• Do not store food which goes bad easily at low
temperature, such as bananas and melons.
,, Your appliance is frost free, which means there
is no need to manually defrost your appliance.
This will be carried out automatically.
• Temperature rise during defrosting complies
with ISO requirements.
But Ifyou want to prevent an undue rise in the
temperature of frozen food while the appliance
defrosts, wrap the frozen food in several layers
of newspaper.
• Any increase in the temperature of frozen food
during defrosting can shorten its storage life.
• Do not re-freeze frozen foods that have thawed
completely.
Saving Energy Tips
Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with
adequate ventilation.
Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight
and never put it near a direct source of heat (a
radiator, for example).
Never block any vents or grilles on the
appliance.
Allow warm food to cool down before placing it
in the appliance.
Put frozen food inthe refrigerator to thaw.
You can then use the low temperatures of the
frozen products to cool food inthe refrigerator.
Do not keep the door of the appliance open for
too long when putting food in or taking food
out.
The shorter the time the door is open, the less
frost build-up you'll have in the freezer.
Provide sufficient clearance to the right, left,
back, and top for air circulation when installing
the refrigerator. This will help reduce power
consumption and keep your energy bills lower.

doors out of the reach of children.
Do not let children play with them.
There is a risk of death from suffocation if a
child swallows a fastener.
INSTALLING THE WATER
DISPENSER LINE
A water dispenser with a filter is one of the helpful
features on your new refrigerator.
To help promote better health, the water filter
removes unwanted particles from your water.
However, it does not sterilize the water 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 (138 - 862 kPa) is
required.
If the refrigerator is installed inan 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 filled.
To do this, press the water dispenser lever until the
water runs from the water outlet.

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 filtration 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):
Removing any residual matter inside the
water supply line after installing the water
filter.
1. Turn ON the the water supply if you turned it off
when you installed the water filter.
2. Run water through the dispenser until the water
runs clear (approx. 6 to 7 minutes).
This will clean the water supply system and
remove air from the lines.
3. Additional flushing may be required in some
households.
4. Open the Refrigerator door and make sure
there are no water leaks coming from the water
filter.
+ Check if the sediment filter in the reverse
osmosis system is blocked.
Replace the filter if necessary.
+ Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis
system to refill after heavy usage.
+ if your refrigerator has a water filter, it may
further reduce the water pressure when used
in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system.
Remove the water filter.
if you have questions about your water pressure,
call a licensed, qualified plumber.
Be sure to flush the dispenser thoroughly,
®
otherwise water may drip from the
dispenser.
This means that there is still air in the line.

again.
/k CAUTION
• The inside of the ice bucket stays cold when it
is operating.
Do not reach deep inside the ice bucket.
• Use only the ice maker provided with the
refrigerator. The water supply to this refrigerator
must only be installed/connected by a suitably
qualified person.
Connect to a potable water supply only.
• To operate the ice maker properly, water
pressure of 20 - 125 psi is required.
Ice Maker Do's and Don'ts
• Do not put your fingers, hands, or any other
unsuitable objects in the chute or ice-maker
bucket.
It may result in personal injury or material
damage.
• Never put your finger or any other objects in the
dispenser opening.
It may cause injury.
• Do not try to disassemble the ice maker.
• Do not wash or spray the ice bucket with water
while it is in the refrigerator.
Remove it to clean it.
CAUTION
When you insert the Ice maker tray, be sure that
the tray is well centered at the entrance.
Otherwise, the tray may get stuck.
Water
clouding phenomenon
All water provided to the refrigerator flows
®
through the core filter which is an alkaline
water filter.
In the filtering process, the pressure of
the water that has flowed out of the filter
is increased, and the water becomes
saturated with oxygen and nitrogen.
When this water flows out into the air, the
pressure plummets and the oxygen and
nitrogen get supersaturated, which results
in gas bubbles.
The water may temporarily look misty or
cloudy due to these oxygen bubbles.
After a few seconds, the water will look
clear.
Going on vacation...
If you are going on a long vacation or business trip
and won't use the water or ice dispensers for a
long time:
• Close the water valve. Otherwise, water
leakage may occur.
• Remove all food.
• Unplug the refrigerator.
• Wipe excess moisture from inside and leave
the doors open. Otherwise, odor and mold may
develop.
