the bin and water running in the pipes as the
icemaker refills.
Set the icemaker power button to OFF and shut off
the water supply to the refrigerator.
If the ambient temperature will drop below
freezing, have a qualified technician drain the
water supply system to prevent serious property
damage due to flooding caused by ruptured water
lines or connections
• The ice bin should be emptied any time the
icemaker power button is turned to the OFF
mode.

Storing Food
Food Storage Tips
Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight
and moisture-proof material unless otherwise
noted. This prevents food odor and taste transfer
throughout the refrigerator. For dated products,
check date code to ensure freshness.
CAUTION
• Do not overfill or pack items too tightly into door
bins. Doing so may cause damage to the bin or
personal injury if items are removed with
excessive force.
CAUTION
• Do not store glass containers in the freezer.
Contents may expand when frozen, break the
container and cause injury.
Food
Butter or
Margarine
Cheese
Milk

Fruit
Keep opened butter in covered dish
or closed compartment. When
storing an extra supply, wrap in
freezer packaging and freeze.
Store in original wrapping until used.
Once opened, rewrap tightly in
plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
Wipe milk cartons. For coldest milk,
place containers on an interior shelf.
Store in original carton on interior
shelf, not on door shelf.
Do not wash or hull fruit until it is
ready to be used. Sort and keep fruit
in original container in a crisper, or
store in completely closed paper bag

How to Store
necessary if the refrigerator has not been used
for a longtime.
• The automatic freezer icemaker produces 12
cubes at a time, 50-110 pieces 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.).
• The amount and shape of ice may vary according
to the environment (ambient temperature
around the appliance, frequency of the door
being opened, amount of food stored in the
appliance, water pressure, etc.).
• The sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is
normal.
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice
production will stop.
• In the event of a power outage, throw away the
ice stored in the ice bin.
• Ice cubes which are stored in the ice bin for a
long time may clump together and be difficult to
separate. If this happens, empty the ice bin
completely and clean it before reinstalling it.
