Ice and Water Dispenser

CAUTION

• Keep children away from the dispenser. Children may play with or damage the controls.
• Throw away the first few batches of ice (about 140 - 160 cubes) after installation. This is also necessary if the refrigerator has not been used for a long time.
• If ice or water dispenses unexpectedly, turn off the water supply and contact an LG Electronics Customer Information Center.
• Never use a glass that is exceptionally narrow or deep. Ice may jam in the ice passage and refrigerator performance may be affected.

NOTE

• To dispense cold water or ice, push on the dispenser paddle with a glass.
• The first ice and water dispensed may include particles or odor from the water supply line or the water tank. Throw away the first few batches of ice (about 140 - 160 cubes). This is also necessary if the refrigerator has not been used for a long time.
• The dispenser will not operate when either of the refrigerator doors is open.
• If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water filter and water supply. If the problem continues, contact an LG Electronics Customer Information Center. Do not use the water or ice until the problem is corrected.
• Dispense ice into a glass before filling it with water or other beverages. Splashing may occur if ice is dispensed into a glass that already contains liquid.
• Some dripping may occur after dispensing. Hold the cup beneath the dispenser for a few seconds after dispensing to catch all of the drops.
• Keep containers at an appropriate distance from the dispensers. Tall, narrow glasses should be held far enough from the ice outlet to prevent ice from jamming in the ice chute. A container with a very small opening should be held as close to the dispenser as possible to avoid spilling.
• Keep the glass at a proper distance from the ice outlet. A glass held too close to the outlet may prevent ice from dispensing.

Locking the Dispenser: Press the Lock button on the control panel for 3 seconds to lock or unlock the dispenser and all of the control panel functions.

Ice Compartment

• CAUTION: Keep hands and tools out of the ice compartment door and dispenser chute. Failure to do so may result in damage or personal injury
• Keep the ice compartment door closed tightly. If the ice compartment door is not closed tightly, the cold air in the ice bin will freeze food in the refrigerator compartment. This could also cause the icemaker to stop producing ice.

In-Door Ice Bin

• The icemaker stops producing ice when the in-door ice bin is full.
• During use, the ice may stack unevenly in the bin, causing the icemaker to misread the number of ice cubes and stop producing ice. Shaking the ice bin to level the ice within it can reduce this problem.
• To prevent ice cubes from melting and leaking from the dispenser, ALWAYS empty the ice bin when the icemaker is turned OFF for more than a few hours.
• The ice passage 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 can also help prevent frost buildup.

Detaching the In-Door Ice Bin

1. Gently pull the handle to open the ice compartment.

2. To remove the in-door ice bin, grip the front handle, slightly lift the lower part, and slowly pull out the bin as shown.

Assembling the In-Door Ice Bin

1. Carefully insert the in-door ice bin, slanting the top slightly to fit it under the icemaker.

2. Gently push the handle to close the ice compartment.

CAUTION

• When handling the ice bin, keep hands away from the icemaker tray area to avoid personal injury.
• Storing cans or other items in the ice bin will damage the icemaker.
• Never use thin crystal glasses or containers to collect ice. Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments in the ice.
• Avoid touching the auto shutoff (feeler arm) when replacing the ice bin. See the label on the ice compartment door for details.

Automatic Icemaker

In-Door Icemaker

NOTE

• Ice is made in the automatic in-door icemaker and sent to the dispenser. The icemaker produces 70 - 182 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other operating conditions.
• It takes about 12 to 24 hours for a newly installed refrigerator to begin making ice.
• Ice-making stops when the in-door ice bin is full. When full, the in-door ice bin holds approximately 6 to 8 (12-16 oz.) glasses of ice.
• Foreign substances or frost on the ice-detecting sensor can interrupt ice production. Make sure the sensor area is clean at all times for proper operation.
• To increase ice production, use the Ice Plus function. The function increases both ice making and freezing capabilities.

Freezer Icemaker

NOTE

• 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.).
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice production will stop.
• Sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.
• The icemaker produces ice once approximately 48 hours have passed after the appliance is initially installed.
• Discard the first ice cubes produced after initial install.
• 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.

WARNING Personal Injury Hazard

• DO NOT place fingers or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
• To avoid personal injury, keep hands out of the ice door and passage.

CAUTION: Never store beverage cans or other items in the ice bin for the purpose of rapid cooling. Doing so may damage the icemaker or the containers may burst.

Turning the Automatic Icemakers On or Off

• To turn off one of the automatic icemakers, set the icemaker switch to OFF (O). To turn on the automatic icemaker, set the switch to ON (I).

Normal Sounds You May Hear

• Keeping the power turned on to the icemakers before the water line is connected can damage the icemakers.
• The icemaker water valve will buzz as the icemaker fills with water. If the power switch is in the ON (I) position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing, move the power switch to OFF (O).
• You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills.

NOTE: Do not keep the power turned on to the icemakers if the water line is not connected. Doing so can damage the icemakers

Preparing for Vacation

• Set both icemaker power switches to OFF (O) and shut off the water supply to the appliance.
• 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.

NOTE: The ice bin should be emptied any time the power switch is turned to the OFF (O) position.

Storing Food

• Depending on the model, some of the following functions may not be available.
• Each compartment inside the refrigerator is designed to store different types of food. Store food in the optimal space to enjoy the freshest taste

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.
• Do not store glass containers in the freezer. Contents may expand when frozen, break the container and cause injury

NOTE

• If you are leaving home for a short period, like a short vacation, the refrigerator should be left on. Refrigerated foods that are able to be frozen will stay preserved longer if stored in the freezer.
• If you are leaving the refrigerator turned off for an extended period, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean the interior, and leave the doors open to prevent fungi from growing in the refrigerator.
• Do not store food with high moisture content towards the top of the refrigerator. The moisture could come in direct contact with the cold air and freeze.
• Wash food before storing it in the refrigerator. Vegetables should be washed, and food packaging should be wiped down to prevent adjacent foods from being contaminated.
• If the refrigerator is kept in a hot and humid place, frequent opening of the door or storing a lot of vegetables in the refrigerator may cause condensation to form. Wipe off the condensation with a clean cloth or a paper towel.
• If the refrigerator door or freezer drawer is opened or closed too often, warm air may penetrate the refrigerator and raise its temperature. This can increase the running costs of the unit.

Humidity Controlled Crispers (On Some Models)

• The crispers provide fresher tasting fruit and vegetables by letting you easily control humidity inside the drawer.
• You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crispers by adjusting the control to any setting between Vegetables and Fruit.
