Feed water pipe installation
• Automatic ice maker operation needs water pressure of 147-834 kPa (1.5-8.5
kgr/cm2)(That is, an instant paper cup (180 cc) will be fully filled within 3 sec.).
• If water pressure does not reach the rating 147 kPa(1.5 kgf/cm2)or below, it is
necessary to purchase a separate pressure pump for normal automatic icing and
cool water reed.
• Keep the total length of the feed water pipe tube within 8 m and be careful for the
tube not be bent. If the tube is 8 m or longer it may cause trouble in water feed
owing to the drain water pressure.
• Installthe reed water pipe tube at a placefree from heat.
Warning • Connect to potable water supply only.
• Refer to instructions with water filter kit for installation.

Tools required
Cold water supply
Water connection instruction guide
Read all directions carefully before you begin.
Connect to potable water supply only.
• Standard screwdriver
• 7/16 - inch and 1/2 -inch open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches
• 1/4 -inch nut driver
• 1/4 -inch drill bit
• Hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded)
The ice maker water valve contains a flow washer which is used as a water
pressure regulator.
The ice maker needs to be connected to a cold water line with water pressure
207 o-827 kPa (30 o-120 psi).
Ira problem occurs, callyour utility company.
Connect
the tubing to
water line
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2.Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long enough to empty
water pipes.
3. Find a 1/2 -inch to 1-1/4 -inch vertical COLD water pipe near the refrigerator,
4. To determine the length of copper tubing you will need, measure from the
connection on the lower left rear of the refrigerator to the water pipe. Add 7
feet (2.1m)to allow for moving refrigerator for cleaning. Use 1/4 -inch O.D.
(outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut
square.
5. Using a grounded drill, drill a 1/4 - inch hole in the cold water pipe you have
selected.
6. Fasten shut - off valve to cold water pipe with pipe clamp. Be sure outlet end
is solidly in the 1/4dnch drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is
under the pipe clamp. Tighten packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws
carefully and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do not over tighten or
you may crush the copper tubing, especially if soft (coiled) copper tubing is
used. Now you are ready to connect the copper tubing.
7. Slip compression sleeve and compression nut on copper tubing as shown.
Insert end of tubing into outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw
compression nut onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not over tighten.
8. Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink, and turn ON main
water supply and flush out tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF shut- off valve
on the water pipe. Coil copper tubing.

Storing foods
• Storefresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food isfrozen and thawed isan
important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor.
• Do not store rood which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas,and
melons.
• Allow hot rood to cool prior to storing, placing hot rood in the refrigerator could spoil
other rood,and leadto higher energyconsumption.
• When storing the rood, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container with a lid. This
prevents moisture from evaporating,and helpsrood to keep its taste and nutrients.
• Do not block air vents with rood. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator
temperatures even.
• Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator,
and cause temperatures to rise.
• Never keep too much rood in door rack because they may pushagainst by innerracks
sothat the door cannot be fully closed.

• Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may breakwhen frozen.
• Do not refreeze rood that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrient.
• When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer
shelf, not in the door rack.
• Do not touch the cold foods or containers- especially made of metallic -,with wet
handsand place glass products in the freezer compartment.

• Avoid placing moist food in top refrigerator shelves, it could freeze from direct
contact with chilled air.
• Always cleanfood prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and
wiped, and packed food should be wiped, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.
• When storing eggs in their storage rack or box, ensure that they are fresh, and always
store them inan upright position, which keeps them fresh longer,

Warning
General information
During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator
in operation. Placefreezable items in freezer for longer life.
When you plan not to operate, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the
interior thoroughly, and leave each door OPENto prevent odor formation.
Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not affect your
refrigerator temperatures.
However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.
Remove or securely fasten down all loose items insidethe refrigerator.
To avoid damaging the height adjusting screws, turn them all the way into the base.
The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especiallyjust
after installation.
Don't be alarmed. This is due to the anti-condensation pipe, which pumps hot
refrigeratorto prevent "sweating" on the outer cabinet wall.
Cleaning
It is important that your refrigerator be kept clean to prevent undesirable odors. Spilled
rood should be wiped up immediately, since it may acidify and stain plastic surfaces if
allowed to settle.
Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or detergent to clean the durable finish of your
refrigerator.
Wipe with a clean damp cloth and then dry.
Regularcleaning is recommended. Wash all compartments a bakingsoda solution or a
mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry.
Please verify that the power cord is not damaged, power plug is not overheated, or
power plug iswell inserted into the power consent.
Always remove power cord from the wall outlet prior to cleaning in the vicinity of
electrical parts (lamps,switches, controls, etc.).
Wipe up excess moisture with a sponge or cloth to prevent water or liquid from
getting into any electrical part and causing an electric shock.
Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse abrasive cleaners, strong alkaline
solutions, flammable or toxic cleaning liquids on any surface.
Do not touch frozen surfaces with wet or damp hands, because damp object will stick
