Before Using the Water Dispenser

Caution
  • Keep children away from the dispenser to prevent children playing with or damaging the controls.

  • If water dispenses unexpectedly, turn off the water supply and contact an LG Electronics Customer Information Centre.

  • Throw away the first few batches of ice (about 20 cubes and 7 cups of water). This is also necessary if the appliance has not been used for a long time.

  • Clean the water dispensing system if they have not been used for 48 hours. Flush the water system connected to a water supply if water has not been drawn for 5 days.

  • To clean the water dispensing system, flush the water through the dispenser about 5 minutes and throw away the first few batches of ice.

  • Do not use a thin crystal cup or chinaware when dispensing water or ice.

Note
  • The first water dispensed may include particles or odour from the water supply line or the water tank. This is also necessary if the appliance has not been used for a long time.

  • If the cup rim is small, water may splash out of the glass or miss it completely.

  • The dispenser will not operate when either of the refrigerator doors is open.

  • Use a cup with a rim of over 68 mm in diameter when dispensing water.

  • It is normal for milky / cloudy water to be dispensed after replacing the water filter. This air in the water will eventually clear and is safe to drink during this transition.
