Touch to display the control panel and view the current settings. You can also view the current settings when you open a door of the refrigerator compartment.
After you finish configuring settings, touch again to turn off the display of the control panel. Even if you do not touch to turn off the display, the display will
automatically turn off after 40 seconds. Note that, even when the display of the control panel is off, the following indicators will remain on: the “Save” indicator for
energy-saving mode, the “Quick” and “Off” indicators for the ice maker, the “Off” indicator for the vacuum compartment, and the “eco”, “Water”, “Quick Freeze”, and
“Door” indicators in the information area.
The display area and buttons for operating the control panel turn on when you open a door of the refrigerator compartment, and turn off approximately 15 seconds after all
doors are closed.
The response of the touch panel varies depending on the ambient temperature and humidity. Response can also be affected by electric appliances running in the vicinity of
the refrigerator and by the user’s physical condition.
If the control panel does not respond when you touch it, stop touching the panel for a while, and then try again. Note that, if you touch a button multiple times in quick
succession, the control panel might register the multiple button touches as a single, extended button touch. In addition, forcefully pressing a button will not improve the
response of the control panel.
The control panel might not respond if it is wet or dirty. If the control panel is dirty, clean it with a damp sponge or dishcloth, and then use a dry dishcloth to wipe away any
excess water.
The buttons for operating the control panel cannot be used while doors of the refrigerator compartment are open or while the indicators in the display area are blinking.
