a jug, a pump is needed. Follow the
instructions below after connecting one
end of the water pipe coming out of the
pump to the refrigerator as described on
the previous page.
1. Finish the connection by pushing the
other end of the water pipe into the
water pipe inlet of the pump as shown
in the figure.
2. Put and fix the pump hose into the jug
as shown in the figure.
3. After completing the connection, plug in
and run the pump.
To provide an efficient operation of the
pump, wait for 2-3 minutes after
starting the pump.
CNote: You may refer to the user
manual of the pump while making the
water connection.

Prior to first use of Ice/Water
Dispenser
CWater mains pressure must not be

you will have to connect a standard 1/2”
valve connection fitting to the cold water
supply in your house. In case this valve is
not present or in case you are not sure,
consult a qualified plumber.
1. Separate the union from the tap
adaptor. (Figure A)
2. Install the tap adaptor to 1/2” valve
fitting as shown in the figure. (Figure B)
3. After inserting the water pipe to the
union, install it to the tap adaptor and
insert to the tap as shown in the figure.
(Figure C)
4. Tighten the union manually. In case of a
leak use a spanner or a pair of pliers to
tighten the union.
AWarning: Secure the water pipe
to suitable points by means of the
pipe clips supplied to avoid any
damage or displacement or accidental
disconnection.
AWarning: After turning on the water
valve, make sure that there is no leakage
at both connection points of the water
pipe. In case of a leak, turn off the valve
immediately and tighten all joints again
using a spanner or a pair of pliers.
AWarning: Make sure that standard
1/2" valve fitting fed by cold mains water
supply is available and is turned off fully.
Note -1: There is no need to use water
filter in case a jug is used.
Note -2: Pump must be used when jug will
be used.

EN

CPumps must be used in case the
supply water pressure drops below 1 bar
or if a jug is going to be used.
CWater system of the refrigerator must
be connected to the cold water line. It
must not be connected to hot water line.
CNo water may be obtained in the
initial startup of the refrigerator. This
is caused by the air in the system. To
discharge air from the system, press
Dispenser latch for periods of 1 minute
until water comes from the Dispenser.
Water flow may be irregular in the
beginning. Irregular water flow will be
normalized after the air in the system is
discharged.
CAt the initial startup of the refrigerator
approx.12 hours must pass before cold
water can be obtained.
CWater mains pressure must be
between 1-8 bars for the operation of
Ice/Water Dispenser smoothly. For this,
check that 1 glass of water (100 cc) can
be filled in 10 seconds.
CThe first 10 glasses of water should
not be consumed.
C12 hours must pass to obtain ice
from the Ice Dispenser for the first time.
If there is not enough ice in the ice
dispenser, ice may not be obtained from
ice dispenser.
CApproximately the first 30 cubes
of ice to be obtained from the Ice
Dispenser must not be used.
CAlways use the water filter when a jug
is not being used.
