Filling the Water Tank with Water

This feature is only available on some models.

The water tank holds the water to be dispensed or used by the automatic icemaker to make ice.

  • Remove the water tank by pulling it out while holding the handle.

  • Open the cover or cap of the water tank. Fill with bottle filtered or clean filtered water up to the reference line indicated inside the water tank. (Total capacity: 3.5 ℓ)

  • After filling with water, close the cover or cap of the water tank. Refit the water tank on the fridge shelf.

Warning
  • Fill the water tank with potable water only.

  • Do not fill the water tank with drinks other than water, such as coffee or juice.

Caution
  • Make sure to clean the water tank once every 1-2 weeks.

  • Do not leave the water tank unwashed for a long period of time.

  • Do not continue to use the water tank by refilling it with water without washing it.

  • Do not apply excessive force or impact when removing or assembling the water tank. Doing so can cause appliance damage or injury.

  • Children should not be allowed near the water tank.

Note
  • Before using the water tank after installing the appliance, it should be washed before filling it with water.

  • Check if the water tank has been placed on the appliance correctly. If it is not assembled correctly, water may leak from the tank into the appliance.

  • If there is an insufficient amount of water in the water tank, ice cube size and quantity may be affected and may result in no ice being made.

  • If there is no water in the water tank, the cold water and ice dispensing function of the dispenser cannot be used. Check if there is water in the water tank and then fill it with water if there is not.

  • Wait at least 15 seconds before removing the water tank after having dispensed water or ice from the dispenser.

  • Sound from the water tank will be normal when supplying water to the dispenser and the Automatic Ice Maker. It is not a sign of malfunction.
