Installation instructions (all models)
Before placing food in the fresh food or freezer compartments
■ ■
Remove all packaging. Ensure that all transit clips are removed from the refrigerator. These are
small rubber stops located at the back of the shelves.
■ ■
Allow the refrigerator to run empty for 2 – 3 hours to allow each compartment to cool to the
appropriate temperature.
■ ■
Clean the inside of the appliance with a mix of warm water and a little liquid detergent and a
soft cloth to remove manufacturing and transportation dust.
■ ■
The appliance may have an odour on its initial operation, but this will go when the refrigerator
has cooled sufficiently.
Before you start using your Ice & Water refrigerator
■ ■
Check your refrigerator is switched on and has cooled for at least 2 hours before use (refer to
page 21 – The temperature of your refrigerator and freezer).
■ ■
Check that the water filter has been connected and turned on.
■ ■
Turn on the ice maker (refer to page 24).
■ ■
At first use allow approximately 1 minute from when the dispensing pad is pushed until water is
dispensed. This will allow the water tank to fill.
■ ■
Run through and discard the first 3 L (3 qt) of water from the dispenser, stopping intermittently
(refer to page 26 – First use). Failure to do this will result in excessive dripping from your
dispenser.
■ ■
Discard the first 3 harvests of ice (8 ice cubes are produced per harvest), refer to page 26 –
First use.
You are now ready to enjoy ice and water from your refrigerator.
Please note that once installation is complete a few drips may appear out of the dispenser over
the next few days as the remaining trapped air is cleared.
Energy efficiency
For the most energy efficient use of your appliance:
■ ■
Ensure your refrigerator has adequate ventilation as recommended in the installation instructions.
■ ■
Do not cover your appliance with any material that will prevent air from flowing around the
cabinet sides.
■ ■
Allow good clearances in front of air ducts within the cabinet for maximum cold air distribution.
■ ■
Cool hot foods down before placing them in the appliance.
■ ■
Do not overfill the compartments.
■ ■
Keep door openings to a minimum.
■ ■
Select a temperature setting that isn’t too cold.
■ ■
Check your door seals for leaks.
