OPERATION
ENGLISH
This feature may vary depending on model
purchased.
Before Using the In-Door
Icemaker
• The icemaker produces ice normally when
approximately 48 hours have passed after the
appliance is initially installed.
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice
production will stop.
• Sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.
• If ice cubes are stored in the ice bin for a long
period of time, they may clump together and
may not be separated easily. In such a case,
empty the ice bin and allow fresh ice to be made.
CAUTION
• It is normal for milky or cloudy water to be
dispensed after replacing the water filter. This
air in the water will clear eventually and is safe to
drink.
• The first ice and water dispensed may include
particles or odour from the water supply line or
the water tank.
• If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water
tank and the water supply for a possible source.
If the problem continues, contact the LG
Electronics customer information centre. Do not
use the ice or water until the problem is
corrected.
• Do not touch the ice outlet or the automatic
icemaker with your hand or a tool.
• Dispense ice into a glass before filling it with
water or other beverages. Splashing will occur if
ice is dispensed into a glass that already contains
liquid.
• Never use a glass that is exceptionally narrow or
deep. Ice may jam in the ice passage, affecting
the performance of the appliance.
• Keep the glass at a proper distance from the ice
outlet. A glass held too close to the outlet may
prevent ice from dispensing.
• Dispose of the ice inside the ice bin if you go on
vacation or if an extended power outage occurs.
Water from melting ice may drop from the
dispenser onto the floor.
In-Door Icemaker
The automatic icemaker can automatically make 70
- 182 cubes at a time, within a 24-hour period if
conditions are favorable. This amount may vary
according to the environment (ambient
temperature around the appliance, frequency of
the door being opened, amount of food stored in
the appliance, etc.).

Removing/Refitting the Ice
Storage Bin
The ice dispensing chute may become blocked with
frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost
that accumulates by removing the ice bin and
clearing the passage with a rubber spatula.
Dispensing cubed ice periodically can also help
prevent frost buildup.
1
