STEP 7 Connect the water dispenser line (applicable models only)
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

follow these instructions to ensure proper ice making and to keep the ice
bucket full of ice: 1. Let the refrigerator operate for at least 24 hours to
ensure optimal performance. 2. Dispense the first 4 to 6 ice cubes into a
glass. 3. Wait another 8 hours and dispense another 4 to 6 ice cubes. 4. Then,
wait another 16 hours and dispense the first glass-full of ice.
NOTE · If you consume all the ice at once, you must wait 8 hours before
dispensing the first 4
to 6 cubes. This ensures that the ice bucket is filled with ice properly.

· Do not press Test repeatedly after the ice tray is filled with ice or water.
Water may overflow or ice may jam.
· Do not put food in the ice bucket. The frozen food may damage the ice maker,
especially when you open or close the door.
· When the refrigerator recovers power after a power failure, the ice bucket
may contain a mix of melted and jammed ice cubes, which can prevent the ice
maker from working properly. To prevent this, make sure to empty the ice
bucket so the ice bucket can refill with fresh, loose ice cubes.
· Do not put fingers or any objects into the dispenser outlet or the ice
maker. This can cause physical injury or property damage.
· When reinserting the ice maker tray, make sure that the tray is properly
centered at the entrance. Otherwise, the tray can get stuck.
If You Turn the Ice Maker Off If you press and hold Ice Maker for more than 3
seconds to turn the ice maker off, make sure to remove all ice cubes from the
ice bucket. Remaining ice cubes may clump together, making it difficult to
remove them. To remove the ice bucket, see the Ice bucket (applicable models
