making process will look white, which indicates
they are generated normally.
• If ice doesn’t come out, pull out the ice bucket
and press the Test button located on the right
side of ice maker. See the illustration under
Making Ice below.
• Do not press the Test button continuously if
the tray is filled with ice or water. Water may
overflow or ice may jam the bucket.
MAKING ICE
• To fill the ice bucket to maximum capacity after
installation, follow these steps:
1. Allow your refrigerator to operate and cool
down for 24 hours (or 1 full day).
- Waiting 24 hours will allow your ice maker to
cool properly.
2. Dispense 4 to 6 ice cubes into a glass.
3. After another 8, and then 16 hours, dispense a
full glass of ice.
• To test the ice maker, press the Test button
on the ice maker. You will hear the refrigerator
chime (ding-dong). When the chime sounds,
release the Test button.
• The chime sounds automatically again to let
you know the ice maker is working well.

• If you want to remove ice cubes without
using the ice bucket, turn the ice maker
off and remove the front cover from the
ice maker. Then, remove the ice cubes.
Note that with the cover removed, the ice
cubes in the ice maker can spill out.
• Do not put food in the ice bucket. If you
store food in the ice bucket, the food can
strike the ice maker when you open or
close the door, causing damage to the
ice maker.
• Note that the ice cubes in the ice bucket
may spill out over the drawer when you
remove the ice bucket from the drawer.
If this occurs, be sure to pick up any ice
cubes that spill.

CAUTION
• If a power failure occurs, ice cubes
may melt then freeze together when
the power comes back on, causing the
dispenser to stop working.
To prevent this problem, after a power failure, pull out
the ice bucket and discard the residual ice or water.
• If you use all the ice at once, you must
repeat Steps 2 and 3 above.
However, only wait 8 hours before dispensing the
first 4 to 6 ice cubes. This will replenish the ice
cubes and ensure maximum ice production.
USING THE ICE OFF FUNCTION
When you select the Ice Off mode, remove all ice
cubes from the bucket. If you leave the ice cubes
in the bucket, the ice cubes may clump together,
making it difficult to remove them.
To remove the ice bucket, push the button on
the upper right of the bucket (1 in the illustration
above), lift up the bottom, and then pull out.
To put the bucket back in, push the bucket straight
back until you hear a click. If the bucket does not
fit, turn the helix 90 degree (see the last illustration
on the right, above) and try again.
• 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.
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.
