Icemaker use instructions (only on models with an icemaker)
Preparations before using the icemaker
Cut the water pipe to desired length while ensuring it free from excessive bend. Generally its
total length is not more than 5m. Excessive longer pipe may reduce water pressure and, as a
result, the water output flow-rate and ice-making capacity;
The water pipe should be away from any heat sources as it is not heat-resistant;
The water pipe should be installed and tested by authorized professional personnel;
The icemaker should be connected to a water source of a pressure between 1.5bar and 7bar;
Cleaning the ice cube tray
Deactivate the ice machine function from the
display panel,take out the icemaker assembly from
the refrigerator. Turn the icemaker over and you
can see the ice cube tray.
Pull the elliptical fastener of the icemaker in
direction .
Take out the ice cube tray in direction .
After cleaning, install it back in reversed
direction,push the ice machine firmly, close the
freezing door, and activate the ice machine
function from the display panel.
Precautions
Never install the icemaker's water tube in an area with the ambient temperature below 0 to
avoid icing of water in it.
The icemaker will start ice cube making when the internal temperature reaches or is below -
12 . (If the icemaker is used for the first time or after an extended period of vacation, the first
loads of cubed ices should be discarded as there are impurities in the water tube)
After the appliance is located, the water tube should be properly arranged to prevent it from
being crushed.
Installation of the icemaker can only be carried out by an authorized service agent.
This icemaker can only be supplied with drinking water.
Operating principle of the icemaker
8 cubed ices are made in every cycle. The ice making capacity depends on ambient
temperature, door-opening frequency, water pressure, freezer temperature and other conditions.
To ensure that the storage box is fully filled with cubed ices, arrange the cubed ices in the
drawer frequently.
As the icemaker makes 8 cubed ices in one cycle, it is normal that some of them stick to each
other (This can be improved by decreasing water supply duration).
Note
For a newly installed refrigerator, please let the appliance operate for 24 hours
before making ice.
If this is your first icemaker
Some “crack” sound may be heard in the process of ice making. Don't worry, it's normal.
Cubed ices stored for an extended period may become opaque or emit a strange odor. Please
empty the cubed ice storage box regularly and clean it with warm water. Before putting the box
back, make sure to cool it down and to dry it under
sunshine. Otherwise cubed ices may
stick on the box.
If you do not want to use the cubed ice storage box for an extended period
Please take out all the cubed ices from the storage box and wash the box with warm water. Wipe
the box with a dry towel before replacing it to the appliance. After that, turn off the valve between
the water source and the appliance.
If you do not use cubed ices frequently
