English Usage of Icemaker and the Cold Water Dispenser 1. Preparation before using the icemaker and cold water dispenser: a) Cut the water pipe according to need, and avoid bending the water pipe too much. Usually the length should be less than 18ft. (5 m). If the water pipe is too long, the ice content and cold water content are affected because there is not enough water pressure. b) The water pipe cannot stand heat. Keep it away from heat sources. c) You may want to have a service engineer install the water pipe. d) During the first use, in order to supply water to the fresh food water tank, press the water dispenser pad several times for 1 minute each. Do not press for more than 1 minute, to prevent overheating of the pad activator solenoid. Cold water will begin to flow from the outlet. e) Water supply pipe instructions: The cold water pressure should be between 21-123 psi for automatic ice making. f) The water filter is for removing chlorine and odors from the water. It. cannot sterilize or destroy anything-therefore, make sure to connect the water pipe to a drinkable water source. 2. Precautions a) To prevent the pipe from freezing, do not install the water pipe in a place below 32° F. b) Open water valve to flush pipe, and check leakage in water pipe joints until water is clean. c) When temperature of icemaker is equal or below 5˚F, the icemaker will begin to make ice. (Throw out the first several batches of ice cubes if you make ice after not having made it for a long time.) d) After the fridge is installed, put the water supply pipe in a proper place to prevent pressing and damage. e) The filter in the water pipe is there to filter impurities in the water and to make ice clean and hygienic. Therefore, the filter will absorb impurities during normal use. After a long time of usage, if the cubed ice becomes smaller, it may mean that the filter is blocked from the impurities. After 6 months of use, the "Change Filter" indicator light will turn on. At this time, we suggest going to your local authorized Haier after-sale service center or call 1-877-337-3639. After you change the filter, the indicator light will turn off. The refrigerator comes with a filter installed; after this you have to buy and change the filter yourself. f) The ice maker should only be connected to a source of drinkable water. 22
