Follow these instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water damage.Water hammer (water banging in the pipes) in house plumbing can cause damage to refrigerator parts and can lead to water leakage or flooding. Call a qualified plumber to correct water hammer before installing the water supply line to the refrigerator.If you use your refrigerator before connecting the water line, make sure the icemaker power switch on the control panel is in the OFF position. CAUTIONDo not install the icemaker tubing in areas where temperatures fall below freezing. CAUTIONTo prevent burns and product damage, only connect the refrigerator water line to a cold water supply.
18 INSTALLATIONENGLISH CAUTIONWear eye protection during installation to prevent injury.Water PressureThe water pressure must be 20~120 psi or 138~827 kPa or 1.4~8.4 kgf/cm² on models without a water filter and 40~120 psi or 276~827 kPa or 2.8~8.4 kgf/cm² on models with a water filter.If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to the cold water supply, this water line installation is not covered by the refrigerator warranty. Follow the instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water damage.If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to the cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276~414 kPa or 2.8~4.2 kgf/cm², less than 2.0~3.0 sec. to fill a cup of 7 oz or 198 cc capacity).If the water pressure from the reverse osmosis system is less than 20 psi or 138 kPa or 1.4 kgf/cm² (takes more than 4.0 sec to fill a cup of 7 oz or 198 cc capacity):Check to see if the sediment filter in ythe reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.Allow the storage tank on the reverse yosmosis system to refill after heavy usage.If the issue concerning water pressure yfrom reverse osmosis remains, call a licensed, qualified plumber.All installations must be in accordance ywith local plumbing code requirements.What You Will NeedCopper Tubing, y ¼ in. outer diameter, to connect the refrigerator to the water supply. Be sure both ends of the tubing are cut square.To determine how ymuch tubing you need: measure the distance from the water valve on the back of the refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Then, add 8 feet (2.4 m). Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about 8 feet [2.4 m] coiled into 3 turns of about 10 in. [25 cm] diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation.Power drill. y½ in. or adjustable ywrench.Flat blade and Phillips yhead screwdrivers.Two ¼ in. outer ydiameter compression nuts and 2 ferrules (sleeves) to connect the copper tubing to the shutoff valve and the refrigerator water valve. NOTEA self piercing saddle type water valve should not be used. If your existing copper water line has a yflared fitting at the end, you will need an adapter (available at plumbing supply stores) to connect the water line to the refrigerator OR you can cut off the flared fitting with a tube cutter and then use a compression fitting.Shutoff valve y to connect to the cold water line. The shutoff valve should have a water inlet with a minimum inside diameter of 5/32 in. at the point of connection to the COLD WATER LINE. Saddle-type shutoff valves are included in many water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes.
19INSTALLATIONENGLISH NOTEThe hookup line cannot be white, plastic tubing. Licensed plumbers must use only copper tubing (NDA tubing #49595 or #49599) or Cross Link Polyethylene (PEX) tubing.Water Line Installation InstructionsInstall the shutoff valve on the nearest frequently used drinking water line.1 SHUT OFF THE MAIN WATER SUPPLY Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the pressure on the line.2 CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION Choose a location for the valve that is easily accessible. It is best to connect into the side of a vertical water pipe. When it is necessary to connect into a horizontal water pipe, make the connection to the top or side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the water pipe.3 DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE Drill a ¼ in. hole in the water pipe using a sharp bit. Remove any burrs resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe. Be careful not to allow water to drain into the drill. Failure to drill a ¼ in. hole may result in reduced ice production or smaller cubes. WARNINGWhen using any electrical device (such as a power drill) during installation, be sure the device is battery powered, double insulated or grounded in a manner that will prevent the hazard of electric shock.4 FASTEN THE SHUTOFF VALVE Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp.Pipe ClampSaddle-Type Shutoff Valve Vertical Cold Water Pipe NOTECommonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are illegal and their use is not permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber.5 TIGHTEN THE PIPE CLAMP Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing washer begins to swell. NOTE: Do not overtighten the clamp or you may crush the tubing.6 ROUTE THE TUBING Route the tubing between the cold water line and the refrigerator. Route the tubing through a hole drilled in the wall or floor (behind the refrigerator or adjacent base cabinet) as close to the wall as possible.Pipe ClampClamp ScrewWasherInlet End NOTEBe sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about 8 feet coiled into 3 turns of about 10 in. diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation.

To use the Smart Grid function, you need to yregister your appliance with your electric utility company. Using the Smart Grid Function This feature responds to notification events from your utility company to run high energy-consuming tasks during off-peak periods when demand is lower. These notification events are known as Demand Response signals.If the refrigerator receives a Demand Response signal from the utility company, the refrigerator will turn on the Grid LED on the refrigerator display and control its power consumption according to the signal. The refrigerator will respond to the signals received from the utility company as long as product performance is maintained. If the refrigerator receives a Demand Response signal, the refrigerator will operate in Delay Appliance Load (DAL) or Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (TALR) mode. Delay Appliance Load (DAL): The refrigerator responds to a DAL signal by providing a moderate load reduction for the duration of the delay period. This mode 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 mode, the Grid LED is illuminated on the refrigerator display. - DAL mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the amount of time stipulated by the DAL signal (max. 4 hours) or when you override the Smart Grid function. Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (TALR) : The refrigerator responds to a TALR signal by aggressively reducing the load for a short time period, typically 10 minutes. This mode reduces energy consumption by stopping the compressor and controlling the functions that consume a lot of energy such as the defrost cycle and fan.- When the refrigerator operates in TALR mode, the Grid LED is illuminated on the refrigerator display. - TALR mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the received duration (max. 10 minutes), or when you override the Smart Grid function. The mode is immediately deactivated and the refrigerator returns to its normal state when the door is opened or closed, or the dispenser is used.

31HOW TO USEENGLISH CAUTIONWhen handling the ice bin, keep hands away from the icemaker tray area to avoid personal injury.In-Door Ice BinDepending on the model, some of the following functions may not be available. Detaching the In-Door Ice Bin1 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 Bin1 Carefully insert the in-door ice bin while slightly slanting it to avoid contact with the icemaker. 2 Avoid touching the auto shutoff (feeler arm) when replacing the ice bin. See the label on the ice compartment door for details. CAUTIONKeep hands and tools out of the ice ycompartment door and dispenser chute. Failure to do so may result in damage or personal injury.The icemaker stops producing ice when the yin-door ice bin is full. If you need more ice, empty the ice bin into the extra ice bin in the freezer compartment. During use, ice may build up higher around the sensor than in the rest of the bin, causing the icemaker to stop producing ice before the bin is full. Shaking the ice bin to level the ice within it can reduce this problem.To avoid damaging the icemaker, do not ystore cans or other items in the ice bin.Keep the ice compartment door closed ytightly. 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.If the icemaker is turned OFF for yan extended period of time, the ice compartment will gradually warm up to the temperature of the refrigerator compartment. To prevent ice cubes from melting and leaking from the dispenser, ALWAYS empty the ice bin when the icemaker is set to OFF for more than a few hours.Auto shutoff (feeler arm)
32 HOW TO USEENGLISHAutomatic IcemakerDepending on the model, some of the following functions may not be available.Ice is made in the automatic icemaker and sent to the dispenser. The icemaker will produce 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 yinstalled refrigerator to begin making ice. Wait 72 hours for full ice production to occur.Ice making stops when the in-door ice bin yis 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 auto shutoff y(feeler arm) can interrupt ice production. Make sure the feeler arm is clean at all times for proper operation. To increase ice production, use the Ice Plus yfunction. The function increases both ice making and freezing capabilities.

36 HOW TO USEENGLISHFood Storage Tips The following tips may not be applicable depending on the model.Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator. For dated products, check date code to ensure freshness.Food How toButter or MargarineKeep opened butter in a covered dish or closed compartment. When storing an extra supply, wrap in freezer packaging and freeze.CheeseStore in the original wrapping until you are ready to use it. Once opened, rewrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.Milk Wipe milk cartons. For coldest milk, place containers on interior shelf.Eggs Store in original carton on interior shelf, not on door shelf.Fruit Do not wash or hull the fruit until it is ready to be used. Sort and keep fruit in its original container, in a crisper, or store in a completely closed paper bag on a refrigerator shelf.Leafy VegetablesRemove store wrapping and trim or tear off bruised and discolored areas. Wash in cold water and drain. Place in plastic bag or plastic container and store in crisper.Vegetables with skins (carrots,peppers)Place in plastic bags or plastic container and store in crisper.Fish Store fresh fish and shellfish in the freezer section if they are not being consumed the same day of purchase. It is recommended to consume fresh fish and shellfish the same day purchased.LeftoversCover leftovers with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or store in plastic containers with tight lids.Storing Frozen FoodFreezingYour freezer will not quick-freeze a large quantity of food. Do not put more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs. of food per cubic foot of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to leave enough room at the front so the door can close tightly.Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (how airtight and moisture-proof) and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice crystals. NOTECheck a freezer guide or a reliable cookbook for further information about preparing food for freezing or food storage times. NOTEAllow hot foods to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then package and freeze. Cooling hot foods before freezing saves energy.
37HOW TO USEENGLISHStoring Frozen Food (continued)PackagingSuccessful freezing depends on correct packaging. When you close and seal the package, it must not allow air or moisture in or out.

18 INSTALLATIONFRANÇAIS ATTENTIONPorter des lunettes de protection lors de l’installation pour éviter les blessures.Pression de l’eauLa pression d’eau doit être comprise entre 1,38 et 8,27 bars sur les modèles non équipés d’un filtre à eau et entre 2,76 et 8,27 bars sur les modèles équipés d’un filtre à eau.Si un système de filtration d’eau par osmose inverse est connecté à votre alimentation d’eau froide, cette installation de canalisation d’eau n’est pas couverte par la garantie du réfrigérateur. Respectez attentivement les instructions pour minimiser le risque de dégâts des eaux onéreux.Si un système de filtration d’eau par osmose inverse est connecté à votre alimentation en eau froide, la pression d’eau au niveau du système par osmose inverse doit être comprise au minimum entre 2,76 et 4,14 bars (40~60 psi), soit moins de 2 à 3 secondes pour remplir une tasse de 20 cl.Si la pression d’eau depuis le système par osmose inverse est inférieure à 1,38 bar (20 psi), soit plus de 4 secondes pour remplir une tasse de 20 cl, procédez comme suit.Vérifiez pour voir si le filtre à sédiments dans yle système d’osmose inverse est bloqué. Remplacez le filtre si nécessaire.Laissez le réservoir sur le système par yosmose inverse se remplir de nouveau après une utilisation intense.Si le problème concernant la pression de yl’osmose inverse persiste, appelez un plombier qualifié.Toutes les installations doivent être yconformes aux exigences du code de plomberie local.Ce dont vous aurez besoinTuyaux en cuivre, y ¼ po. diamètre extérieur, pour relier le réfrigérateur à la prise d’eau. Veillez à ce que les deux extrémités des tuyaux soient coupées au carré.Pour déterminer de combien de tuyaux vous yavez besoin : mesurez la distance de la vanne d’eau à l’arrière du réfrigérateur au tuyau d’alimentation d’eau. Ensuite, ajoutez 8 pieds (2,4m). Assurez-vous que vous disposez de suffisamment de tuyaux supplémentaires (environ 8 pieds [2,4 m] enroulés en 3 tours d’environ 10 po. [25 cm] diamètre) pour permettre au réfrigérateur d’être retiré du mur après l’installation.Perceuse électrique. yClef ajustable ou clef de y½“Tournevis à lame plate et ypour vis cruciformes.Deux boulons de ycompression de diamètre extérieur ¼ “ et 2 ferrules (mancheons) pour connecter le tube en cuivre à la vanne d’arrêt et à la vanne d’eau du réfrigérateur. REMARQUEUne vanne d’eau à étrier auto-perceuse ne devrait pas être utilisée. Si votre canalisation en cuivre existante a yun raccord évasé à l’extrémité, vous aurez besoin d’un adaptateur (disponible dans les magasins de fournitures de plomberie) pour connecter la ligne d’eau au réfrigérateur OU BIEN vous pouvez couper la coupe évasée avec un découpeur de tube et puis utiliser un raccord de compression.Connecter yla vanne d’arrêt à la ligne d’eau froide. La vanne d’arrêt doit avoir une prise d’eau avec un diamètre intérieur minimal de 5/32 po. au point de connexion à la LIGNE D’EAU FROIDE. Les vannes d’arrêt à étrier sont comprises dans beaucoup de kits d’approvisionnement d’eau. Avant de l’acheter, assurez-vous qu’une vanne à étrier est conforme aux codes de plomberie locaux.

Il est préférable de la relier sur le côté d’un tuyau d’eau vertical. Lorsqu’il est nécessaire de la relier à un tuyau d’eau horizontal, réalisez la connexion sur le haut ou sur le côté, plutôt que sur le bas, pour éviter de recevoir des sédiments du tuyau d’eau.3 PERCER LE TROU POUR LA VANNE Percer un trou de ¼ “ dans le tuyau d’eau en utilisant une pièce pointue. Enlevez toutes les bavures résultant de forage du trou dans le tuyau. Faites attention à ne pas laisser l’eau drainer par le trou. Le défaut de percer un trou de ¼ “ peut entraîner une production de glace réduite ou des glaçons plus petits. AVERTISSEMENTLorsque vous utilisez un appareil électrique (comme une perceuse électrique) lors de l’installation, assurez-vous que le dispositif soit alimenté par batterie, ait une double isolation ou soit mis à la terre d’une manière qui permettra d’éviter le risque de choc électrique.5 RESSERRER LA BRIDE DE SERRAGE Serrer les vis du jusqu’à ce que la rondelle de fermeture commence à enfler.REMARQUE : Ne serrez pas la bride excessivement ou vous pourriez écraser le tuyau.6 DIRIGER LES TUBES Faire passer le tuyau entre la ligne d’eau froide et le réfrigérateur.
