OPERATION
CAUTION
• Do not apply excessive force or impact when
removing or assembling the water dispenser
tank. Doing so can cause appliance damage or
injury.
• Children should not be allowed near the
dispenser tank.
NOTE
• Before using the water dispenser tank after
installing the appliance, it should be washed
before filling it with water.
• Check if the water dispenser tank has been
placed on the appliance correctly. If it is not
assembled correctly, water may leak from the
tank into the appliance.
• If there is an insufficient amount of water in the
water dispenser tank, ice cube size and quantity
may be affected and may result in no ice being
made.
• If there is no water in the water dispenser tank,
the cold water and ice dispensing function of the
dispenser cannot be used. Check if there is water
in the water dispenser tank and then fill it with
water if there is not.
• Wait at least 15 seconds before removing the
water tank after having dispensed water or ice
from the dispenser.
• Sound from the water tank will be normal when
supplying water to the dispenser and the
Automatic Ice Maker. It is not a sign of
malfunction.
Automatic Icemaker
This feature is only available on some models.
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 within a 24-hour period if conditions
are favourable. This amount may vary according to
the environment (ambient temperature around the
