Please observe the following safety precautions in order to
use safely and correctly the refrigerator and to prevent
accident and danger during repair.
1. Be care of an electric shock. Disconnect power cord
from wall outlet and wait for more than three minutes
before replacing PWB parts. Shut off the power
whenever replacing and repairing electric components.
2. When connecting power cord, please wait for more than
five minutes after power cord was disconnected from the
wall outlet.
3. Please check if the power plug is pressed down by the
refrigerator against the wall. If the power plug was
damaged, it may cause fire or electric shock.
4. If the wall outlet is over loaded, it may cause fire. Please
use its own individual electrical outlet for the refrigerator.
5. Please make sure the outlet is properly earthed,
particularly in wet or damp area.
6. Use standard electrical components when replacing
them.
7. Make sure the hook is correctly engaged.
Remove dust and foreign materials from the housing
and connecting parts.
8. Do not fray, damage, machine, heavily bend, pull out,
or twist the power cord.
9. Please check the evidence of moisture intrusion in the
electrical components. Replace the parts or mask it
with insulation tapes if moisture intrusion was
confirmed.
10. Do not touch the icemaker with hands or tools to
confirm the operation of geared motor.
11. Do not let the customers repair, disassemble, and
reconstruct the refrigerator for themselves. It may
cause accident, electric shock, or fire.
12. Do not store flammable materials such as ether,
benzene, alcohol, chemicals, gas, or medicine in the
refrigerator.
13. Do not put flower vase, cup, cosmetics, chemicals,
etc., or container with full of water on the top of the
refrigerator.
14. Do not put glass bottles with full of water into the
freezer. The contents shall freeze and break the glass
bottles.
15. When you scrap the refrigerator, please disconnect the
door gasket first and scrap it where children are not
accessible.

2. How to Install Water Pipe
■Before Installation
1. The icemaker requires the water pressure of 1.5 -
8.5kgf/cm2. (It is acceptable if city water fills a cup of
180cc with water for 3 seconds)
2. Install booster pump where the city water pressure is
below 1.5kgf/cm2for normal operation of water and ice
dispenser.
3. The total length of water pipe shall be less than 12m. Do
not bend the pipe at right angle. If the length is more
than 12m, there will be troubles on water supply due to
water pressure drop.
4. Please install water pipe where there is no heat around.
2-1. When connecting directly to the water tap.
■Please confirm the following installation parts.

4) Connect feed valve to pipe connector A.
5) If there is only one tap water pipe, connect pipe
connector A only and install feed pipe.
2. Water Supply
1) After the installation of feed water, plug the refrigerator
to the earthered wall outlet, press the water dispenser
button for 2 - 3 minutes, and confirm that the water
comes out.
Caution : • Feed pipe should be connected to cold water
line. If it is connected to hot water line, trouble
may occur.
• Please check rubber packing when connecting
feed pipe.
2) Check leakage at connecting part, then arrange water
tube and locate the refrigerator at its regular place if
there is no leaking.
