OPERATION

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.

Freezer Icemaker

The automatic icemaker can automatically make

40-84 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.).

Power Switch

CAUTION

• Do not insert your hands into the mechanical

part of the automatic icemaker such as the ice

bin or the ice dispenser.

• Do not remove the cover of the automatic

icemaker. Touching any mechanical part of the

automatic icemaker. It may result in injury.

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.

Hold and remove the cover of the automatic

icemaker by lifting it upward.

To turn off the automatic icemaekr, set the

switch to OFF ( O ).
