Cleaning the Dispenser
Cleaning the Ice and Water Outlet
Wipe the water outlet 
a
 or ice outlet 
b
 frequently 
with a clean cloth as it may get dirty easily.
•  Lint from a cloth may adhere to the outlets.
Cleaning the Dispenser Tray
Wipe the entire area with a damp cloth. The 
dispenser tray may become wet easily due to 
spilled ice or water.
All spills into the dispenser tray must be cleaned 
immediately. Failure to do so can cause the tray to 
overflow and damage to the surrounding areas.
Automatic Icemaker
This feature is only available on some models.
This feature may vary depending on model 
purchased.
Before Using the In-Door 
Icemaker
•  The icemaker produces ice normally when 
approximately 48 hours have passed after the 
appliance is initially installed.
•  If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice 
production will stop.
•  Sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.
•  If ice cubes are stored in the ice bin for a long 
period of time, they may clump together and 
may not be separated easily. In such a case, 
empty the ice bin and allow fresh ice to be made.
•  It is normal for milky or cloudy water to be 
dispensed after replacing the water filter. This 
air in the water will clear eventually and is safe to 
drink.
•  The first ice and water dispensed may include 
particles or odour from the water supply line or 
the water tank.
•  If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water 
tank and the water supply for a possible source. 
If the problem continues, contact the LG 
Electronics customer information centre. Do not 
use the ice or water until the problem is 
corrected.
•  Do not touch the ice outlet or the automatic 
icemaker with your hand or a tool.
•  Dispense ice into a glass before filling it with 
water or other beverages. Splashing will occur if 
ice is dispensed into a glass that already contains 
liquid.
•  Never use a glass that is exceptionally narrow or 
deep. Ice may jam in the ice passage, affecting 
the performance of the appliance.
•  Keep the glass at a proper distance from the ice 
outlet. A glass held too close to the outlet may 
prevent ice from dispensing.
•  Dispose of the ice inside the ice bin if you go on 
vacation or if an extended power outage occurs. 
Water from melting ice may drop from the 
dispenser onto the floor.
•  A container with a very small opening should be 
held as close to the dispenser as possible to 
avoid spilling.
