The refrigerator takes time to cool completely.
• Wait until the refrigerator has sufficiently cooled before
storing ice cream and foods cooler than room temperature.
• Do not open the doors more than necessary, and close them
as soon as possible.
• In summertime, it may take more than 24 hours to make ice
immediately after installation.
There may be a plastic odor.
This odor will gradually disappear.
Ventilate the room to prevent any odors from being trapped.
The refrigerator will be powerfully cooled
(this is the same for summertime).
• Because heat will radiate out of the refrigerator in order to
cool its contents, the sides will become hot.
• Because the compressor will enter high-speed operation,
the operation sound will grow loud.

Do not pour anything other than cold water into the water tank, such as warm water,
juice, tea, soft drinks, or other liquids (the tank can resist heat up to 60°C).
Pouring anything other than cold water into the tank may cause damage.
Do not pour water directly into the ice tray to make ice. Unfrozen water in the ice
tray may fall into the ice storage box, and the ice may not form cubes.
The level of the ice storage is checked automatically by the sensor lever, and ice making
is stopped when the ice reaches a certain level (about 70 to 140 ice cubes). To detect the
ice storage level correctly, make sure that the ice is flat and that the ice server is kept in its
storage position in the front of the ice storage box as shown in the left diagram.
Open and shut the door of the ice making compartment slowly. There is a
risk of the ice spilling.
Tips
13
About 10 to 12 ice cubes can be made each time. The
ice cube size and the number of ice cubes in one batch
depend on various factors, such as the amount of water
in the water tank. When few ice cubes are being made,
pour water into the water tank.
When ice is made using water with a high mineral content,
such as mineral water, white deposits (white crystals) may
form in the ice. This is the crystallized mineral content

Important Point!
Because no heat is used, it is very easy to make and
produces beautiful colors. Also, because it can be
made with a small amount of sugar, it is very healthy.
It can even be casually made in small amounts when
you have left-over fruit.
Important Point!
Vegetables and fruits frozen with Supercool Freezing
are broken up by the mixer very quickly.
Freezer Compartment
Do not place tall objects in the freezer case (lower).
Food or the freezer case (upper) may become damaged or the door may not close, causing the accumulation of frost or lowering
the cooling performance.
Do not put in plastic drink bottles other than those meant for freezing.
The frozen contents may break the bottle.

• Vegetables stay alive even after harvest. Being
bathed in light, their nutrients are boosted up.
• There is almost no vegetable, fruit, drink or seasoning that
cannot be preserved or stored being exposed to light.
• The vegetable nutrients are increased even with a weak light,
so packaging does not need to be removed (except when the
packaging completely blocks off the light).
• The vegetable nutrients are not increased forever. The
preservation also depends on the freshness at the time of
purchase. Eat vegetables when they are as fresh as possible.

About the clean tray
When vegetable scraps accumulate on the clean tray or the tray becomes dirty, you can remove the
tray from the refrigerator and clean it.
The clean tray is treated with a coating, which makes it easy to wipe and clean even when it is
stained.
(Before you clean it, remove foodstuff from the tray.)
When the clean tray is stained
Page 28
The coating may peel off in the event of following.
• If the clean tray comes into contact with a bottle, can, or solid foodstuff or when the surface of the tray is rubbed with force.
• If the clean tray is soaked in water for a while to clean it or if the tray is wiped with alcohol.

Do not pile food higher than the height of the vegetable case (lower) or vegetable case (upper).
Food or the vegetable case (upper) may become damaged or the door may not close, causing the accumulation of condensation or
lowering the cooling performance.
Because the vegetable compartment has a high humidity depending on the amount or types of vegetables, frost or condensation may
form on the roof of the vegetable compartment or the surface of the cases. When condensation forms, wipe it off with a dry cloth.

Don't cram too much food into
the fridge
If too much food is crammed into the
refrigerator, the flow of cold air can
deteriorate, making it difficult for food to
cool down.
Do not cover up air outlets or air
inlets
Blocking the flow of cold air can make it difficult for
food in the refrigerator to cool down. The temperature
around the air outlets can drop, making foods with
significant moisture freeze easily.
Cool hot foods before placing
them inside
Placing hot foods in the refrigerator will lower
the temperature, also affecting the freshness of
other foods.

Soft-Freezing is set at the time of purchase.
Food does not quickly freeze
With Soft-Freezing, food freezes at about -7°C,
so it may take up to about 24 hours for food to
completely freeze.
Supercool Freezing takes time (about 8 to 9 hours)
to uniformly freeze food from the core.
Soft-Freezing freezes food
Food appears to freeze just as when it freezes in the
freezer.
The outer walls heat up significantly
(to about 50 to 60°C) immediately
after installation and in summer. This
is because the heat discharging and
condensation prevention pipes are
located on the sides and the top of the
refrigerator. They are required for cooling
and the heat is not an abnormality.
The refrigerator compartment rotating

joined together
1
1
Has ice been stored inside the ice
storage box for a long time?
Ice stored inside the ice storage box for a long time may shrink
or join together (due to a phenomenon called sublimation).
When not using ice, it is recommended that you remove the
water and stop the ice making.
2

contact with the refrigerator, sounds may be heard.
2
2
Make sure that the water tank and
water supply pipe are properly
installed.
Push in the water tank until it touches the rear side. If it is out of
position, the sound of the water supply pipe can grow loud.
If there are any gaps or looseness, the water may freeze,
causing sounds to be heard.
Loud noises
Worrisome
noises (Noises
described on the
right are normal)
1
1
The noise gets louder suddenly
or the tone changes.
Immediately after beginning use, when the weather is hot,
when the doors are frequently opened and closed, and in
similar situations, the refrigerator switches to high-speed
operation and cools with high power.
2
2
A whistling sound is made after closing a door.
This is the sound of the cooling fan motor starting.
3
3
A whipping or dripping sound is
sometimes heard from inside the
refrigerator after a door is opened.
This is the creaking sound as warm air enters and expands
the plastic.
4
4
Sometimes the sound of flowing or
boiling water can be heard.
This is the sound of the refrigerant (gas) flowing.
5
5
A rattling or squeaking sound is made
sometimes (every 1 to 2 hours).
This is the sound of the automatic ice maker. Even when there
is no water in the water tank, the automatic ice maker and pump
make a sound about every 100 minutes.
6
6
After turning on the power, a thumping or
creaking sound may be heard in the ice
making “ICE STOP” mode (every 1 to 2 hours).
This is the sound of the operation check. The check is
performed even in the “ICE STOP” ice making mode.
Door
Doors do not

1
Is a door making contact with food or a
case? Is too much food packed inside?
Store food so that the door does not make contact with the
food when closed. In the refrigerator compartment, store
food on the shelves and in the drawer doors store food
so that it does not make contact with the ceiling when
doors are shut and opened. Do not attach a case that you
purchased separately onto the outside of a pocket.
2
2
Has food fallen behind a case in a drawer
door, or is the power cord or another object
trapped between the refrigerator and a door?
Remove any objects. Make sure that the door does not trap
objects such as food, power cords or plastic bags.

compartment
Water drips onto
the floor
1
1
Are the doors being opened frequently,
or are there any gaps?
Close the doors so that there are no gaps.
When moisture in the air cools, it forms frost or
condensation.
When there is high humidity, condensation or frost will
form even in very small gaps.
Regarding the Vegetable Compartment
Page 19

2
Is the humidity high, for example is it
raining?
Condensation may form temporarily. Wipe off with a dry
cloth. Condensation may cause frost to form in the freezer
compartment. Please minimize the time when doors are
kept open.
There are lines
like scratches on
the clear parts
1
1
Is it a thin line without level difference
on its both sides?
This is a mark created at the time the plastic is molded. It is
created at the joint where resin flows. This is not a flaw.
There are holes
in the door and
the refrigerator
walls
1
1
Are there small holes in the door or in
the refrigerator walls?
These are holes that let air escape for the injection of foam
heat insulating materials in the manufacturing process.
These are not flaws or abnormalities.
The surface of
the sides or
doors is warped
1
1
Does the light reflected on the surface
appear distorted?
Warping and surface waviness occurs in the manufacturing
process. When light hits the surface, it may appear warped,
but this is not an abnormality.
Noise interferes
with televisions
or other devices
