Removing any residual matter inside
the water supply line after installing
the water filter.
Turn ON the main water 1.
supply and supply water
from water supply line.
Run water through the 2.
dispenser until the water
runs clear (approx. 6 to
7 minutes). This will clean the water supply
system and remove air from the lines.
Additional flushing may be required in some 3.
households.
Open the Refrigerator door and make sure 4.
there are no water leaks coming from the
water filter.
Be sure to flush the dispenser thoroughly,
otherwise water may drip from the
dispenser.
This means that there is still air in the line.
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):
Check to see whether 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.
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 Freezer
temperature
The Freezer temperature can be set between -8°F
and 5°F (or between -23°C and -15°C) to suit
your particular needs. Press the Freezer button
repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown
in the temperature display. The temperature will
change by 1°F (or 1°C) with each press. See
below.

Keep in mind that foods like ice cream may melt
at 4°F (or -15.5°C). The temperature display will
move sequentially from -8°F to 5°F (or from -23°C
to -15°C).
Controlling the fridge temperature
The fridge temperature can be set between
34°F and 44°F (or between 7°C and 1°C) to suit
your particular needs. Press the Fridge button
repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown
in the temperature display. The temperature will
