STEP 6 Connect the water dispenser line
A water dispenser with a filter is one of the helpful features on your new refrigerator. To help promote better health, the water filter removes unwanted particles from your water. However, it does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You may need to purchase a water purifying system to do that. The water line also connects to the ice maker. For the ice maker to operate properly, water pressure of 30 to 120 psi (206 to 827 kPa) psi is required. If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 30 psi / 206 kPa), you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure. After you have connected the water line, make sure the water storage tank inside the refrigerator is properly filled. To do this, press the water dispenser lever until water runs from the water outlet.
NOTE
· Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your retailer. We recommend using a water line installation kit that contains copper tubing and a 1/4″ (6 mm) compression nut.

1. Shut off the main water source.

2. Insert the pipe clamp (B) and the shutoff

CAUTION
Do not mount the water filter on any part of the refrigerator. This may damage the refrigerator.
1. Connect the household water line to the assembled compression fitting. – If you are using copper tubing, slip the compression nut (07) (not supplied) and ferrule (not supplied) on the copper tubing (not supplied) as shown. – If you are using plastic tubing (08), insert the molded end (Bulb) of the plastic tubing (08) into the compression fitting.
CAUTION
· If you use plastic tubing (08), do not use it without the molded end (Bulb). · Leaving the water line disconnected may cause the water valve to produce a buzzing
sound over time. If this is the case, make sure that the ice making function is turned “OFF” and do not attempt to use the water dispenser. 2. Tighten the compression nut (07) onto the compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut (07). 3. Turn the water on and check for any leakage. If you find water drops or leakage in the connection areas, turn off the main water supply. Check the connections and, if necessary, tighten. 4. Flush 1 gallon of water through the filter before drinking or using the water from the refrigerator. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.) To flush, press a large glass or cup against the water dispenser lever. Fill the glass, empty it, and then repeat. 5. After you turn on the refrigerator, let the ice maker make ice for 1 to 2 days. Over that period of time, throw out the first 1 or 2 buckets of ice the ice maker makes to ensure all impurities have been removed from the water line.
NOTE Only connect the water line to a potable water source. · If you have to repair or disassemble the water line, cut off 1/4″ of the plastic tubing to
make sure you get a snug, leak-free connection. · You can test the water line quickly using a paper cup. Under normal conditions, the
water dispenser can fill a 5 3/4 oz. (170 cc) cup in about 10 seconds.

SMART GRID Function (Demand Response) (applicable models only)
When the refrigerator operates in SMART GRID (Demand Response) mode, the Energy Management Refrigerator function can control energy usage or delay the operation of some functions to save money when energy prices or demand are the highest.
NOTE
· You can deactivate the SMART GRID (Demand Response) function at any time using the Peak Demand Off function.
· To use the SMART GRID (Demand Response) function, you need a separate contract with your electric utility company.
In addition, to use the Smart Grid (Demand Response) function, you must register for the service with your electric company. The company must have an EMS (Energy Management System) that supports SEP (Smart Energy profile).
Using the SMART GRID (Demand Response) Function This feature monitors energy prices and demand information from your utility company and sends notifications to the refrigerator to run high energy consuming tasks during offpeak times when electricity costs and demand are lower. If the refrigerator receives a control signal from the utility company, the refrigerator will display the DAL (L3) ~ TALR (L4) levels on the refrigerator display and control the power consumption according to the level. [Exception condition] The DAL and TALR control signals from a utility company work as long as product performance is maintained. If the refrigerator receives the SMART GRID (Demand Response) signal (DAL or TALR), the refrigerator will operate in Delay Appliance Load (Display:L3) or Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (Display:L4) mode. · Delay Appliance Load (L3): The refrigerator responds to a DAL signal by providing a
moderate load reduction for the duration of the delay period. This function controls functions that consume a lot of energy such as adjusting the Cooling system, running the defrost cycle, and making ice. – When the refrigerator operates in DAL (L3) mode, “L3” is displayed on the
refrigerator display. – DAL mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the amount of time stipulated
by the DAL signal (max. 4.5 hours) or when the Peak Demand Off key is pressed. · Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (L4): The refrigerator responds to a TALR signal
by aggressively reducing the load for a short time period. This function reduces energy consumption by stopping the compressor and controlling the functions that consume a lot of energy such as the defrost cycle and making ice. – When the refrigerator operates in TALR (L4) mode, “L4” is displayed on the
refrigerator display. – TALR (L4) mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the received duration
(max. 15 minutes), or when the Peak Demand Off key is pressed. The mode is immediately deactivated and the refrigerator returns to the normal state when the door is opened or closed, or the dispenser is used.

Special features
Water dispenser Using the dispenser, you can dispense water. To dispense chilled water, turn off the Dispenser Lock function. Put a water glass under the dispenser, and then push the dispenser lever.
NOTE
· The dispenser will stop dispensing if you keep pushing the dispenser lever for about 1 minute. To dispense more water, release and push the lever again.
· Make sure the glass is in line with the dispenser to prevent the dispensed water from spilling out.
· If you do not use the water dispenser for 2-3 days, the dispensed water may have an abnormal smell or taste. This is not a system failure. Discard the first 1-2 glasses of water.
Water clouding Water supplied to the refrigerator flows through a core alkaline filter. During this filtering process, the water pressure of the water increases and the water becomes saturated with oxygen and nitrogen. This causes the water to look misty or cloudy temporarily when dispensed. This is normal and the water will look clear after a few seconds.
