32 OPERATION CAUTION • Do not hang on to or place heavy objects on the refrigerator's dispenser. NOTE • The dispenser will not operate when either of the refrigerator doors is open. • If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water filter and water supply. If the problem continues, contact an LG Electronics Customer Information Center. Do not use the water or ice until the problem is corrected. • Dispense ice into a glass before filling it with water or other beverages. Splashing may occur if ice is dispensed into a glass that already contains liquid. • Some dripping may occur after dispensing. Hold the cup beneath the dispenser for a few seconds after dispensing to catch all of the drops. • Keep containers at an appropriate distance from the dispensers. Tall, narrow glasses should be held far enough from the ice outlet to prevent ice from jamming in the ice chute. A container with a very small opening should be held as close to the dispenser as possible to avoid spilling. Using the Ice and Water Dispenser 1 Select the desired dispenser mode a. The LED over the selected icon turns on. 2 Press the dispenser paddle b with a glass or other container to dispense cubed ice, water or crushed ice. Locking the Ice and Water Dispenser Press and hold the Lock button for three seconds to lock the dispenser and all the control panel functions. Follow the same instructions to unlock. In-Door Ice Bin Before Using the In-Door Ice Bin The icemaker stops producing ice when the indoor ice bin is full. To make room for additional ice, empty the ice bin into an extra ice bin in the freezer compartment. During use, the ice may stack unevenly in the bin, causing the icemaker to misread the number of ice cubes and stop producing ice. Shaking the ice bin to level the ice within it can reduce this problem. CAUTION • Keep hands and tools out of the ice compartment door and dispenser chute. Failure to do so may result in damage or personal injury. • Keep the ice compartment door closed tightly. If the ice compartment door is not closed tightly, the cold air in the ice bin will freeze food in the refrigerator compartment. This could also cause the icemaker to stop producing ice. • When handling the ice bin, keep hands away from the icemaker tray area to avoid personal injury. • Storing cans or other items in the ice bin will damage the icemaker. • Never use thin crystal glasses or containers to collect ice. Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments in the ice. If the icemaker is turned OFF for an extended period of time, the ice compartment will gradually warm up to the temperature of the refrigerator compartment. To prevent ice cubes from melting and leaking from the dispenser, ALWAYS empty the ice bin when the icemaker is turned OFF for more than a few hours. The ice passage may become blocked with frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates by removing the ice bin and clearing the passage with a rubber spatula. Dispensing cubed ice can also help prevent frost buildup.
