OPERATION
Ice and Water Dispenser
Before Using the Ice and Water
Dispenser
CAUTION
• Keep children away from the dispenser to
prevent children playing with or damaging the
controls.
• Throw away the first few batches of ice (about 20
cubes and 7 cups of water). This is also necessary
if the appliance has not been used for a long
time.
• Clean the water dispensing system if they have
not been used for 48 hours. Flush the water
system connected to a water supply if water has
not been drawn for 5 days.
• To clean the water dispensing system, flush the
water through the dispenser about 5 minutes
and throw away the first few batches of ice.
• Do not use a thin crystal cup or chinaware when
dispensing water or ice.
NOTE
• If you open the freezer door while water is being
dispensed, the water dispensing will stop.
• If you open the fridge door while water, cubed
ice or crushed ice is being dispensed, dispensing
will be paused. When you close the door, the
selected item will continue to be dispensed.
• If the cup rim is small, water may splash out of
the glass or miss it completely.
• Use a cup with a rim of over 68 mm in diameter
when dispensing water, cubed ice or crushed ice.
• When the ice maker produces smaller ice cubes,
or the cubes become lumped together, the
amount of water supplied to the ice maker may
be low due to insufficient water in the water
tank. If ice is not used frequently or the freezer
set temperature is too warm, it may also lump
together.
• It is normal for milky / cloudy water to be
dispensed after replacing the water filter. This
air in the water will eventually clear and is safe to
drink during this transition.
