Preparations for the first-time 

ice making

Wash the water tank and the ice storage box.

•

Carry out the Ice tray cleaning mode to clean the ice tray 

•

and the pipe.

(There may be odor or dirt within the automatic ice 

maker.)

Ice making

WARNING

Use potable water only.

To start operation

At first, all the ice making mode are set “OFF”.

1

Select one of the four modes.

Normal ice

Clear ice (normal size)

Large ice

+

Clear ice (large size)

2

Select “ON”.

3

Finalize the setting.

4

Pull out the water tank and pour 

water into it.

Do not tilt the water tank 

●

when carrying as the water 

may spill.

5

Set the water tank.

Securely insert the water tank. 

●

Ice cubes will not be made 

unless the tank is inserted fully.

NOTE

It takes about 24 hours to make the first set of ice cubes.

•

For hygienic reasons, replace the water once a week even 

•

when there is water remaining in the tank.

When you leave the tank empty it may sometimes make a 

•

groaning noise but this is normal.

+

Tank is full at this 

position.

Ice is made automatically.

Ice making process indication

Ice cube process indication will change according to the 

completion of the ice making as follows.

Indication

Condition

Automatic ice making is not operating.

•

Within 5 minutes after the water supply.

•

Ice making is started.

About two-thirds of the ice making is 

•

complete.

When the ice storage box is full.

•

Ice making is finished. The ice cubes are 

dropped to the ice storage box.

(Control panel will light up to show the 

completion.)
Water tank is out of water. Pour water into 

the water tank. 

Even if the water tank is empty, the 

•

flashing will be turned off by opening and 

closing the refrigerator doors. However, 

the flashing will restart after a short time.

NOTE

Do not use other than potable water. Do not use hot water 

•

(heat-resistance:60°C), juice, tea, soda and sports drink etc.

(Dirtying of interior may result.) Malfunction of the ice maker 

may occur as a result.

Large size ice may not be made when the water level of the 

•

water tank is low even if large ice mode is selected.

Do not place the shovel or food on top of the ice cubes. This 

•

may cause the automatic ice maker to malfunction (damage 

of the detection lever, etc.) or the case not being able to be 

pulled out. Set the shovel at the designated location.

Protrusions of ice cubes

There are some slits placed in 

•

the ice tray. Therefore, the ice 

cubes coming from the tray will 

have protrusions from these slits.

The protrusions may be pointed. 

•

Be careful when putting the ice 

cube directly in your mouth.

White in ice cubes and floating substance

The minerals contained in water may solidify and whiten as 

•

water freezes. Minerals turn into a state which is insoluble 

in water once it freezes, so melting the ice cubes will leave 

only white floating substances, but this is normal.

This is more likely to happen when you use hard water 

•

(e.g.The hardness of the water is 100mg/L or more).

The same thing will happen even if clear ice is set “ON”.
