•To remove foreign substances that may exist in the sparkling water tank, discard the first 1.2L of sparkling water.

•The sparkling water will not dispense while it is producing. When the numbers ( ) next to the sparkling water icon stops blinking, Sparkling water can be dispensed.

Press 3 seconds

• To Uninstall the CO2 cylinder, follow the above step #1 ~ #4 in reverse order.

If sparkling water is produced when the internal refrigerator temperature or the temperature of the CO2 cylinder is high, you may hear a “horn sound” When you turn on your refrigerator for the first time, you should not generate sparkling water production until after approximately 2 hours. When you purchase a new CO2 cylinder, be sure to store it in a cool dry place until you are ready to install it (23 ~ 68 °F (-5 ~ 20 °C)). If the cylinder is stored in higher temperatures, it may build up extra internal pressure, which could create a “horn sound” when sparkling water is produced.
