■ Check the power-saving condition.

When checking the power saving conditions of each compartment, touch ROOM to switch the display area by compartment and you can check the compartment in power-saving mode by the ECO display.

Example: When the freezer compartment and the refrigerator compartment are in power-saving mode (ECO level 2)

Display example	★★	ECO ★★	★★	ECO ★★
Compartment display

ECO lights up to indicate the compartment in power-saving mode.

ECO GUIDE

The ECO Level of the previous 24 hours is determined by factors such as the temperature settings of the compartments and the frequency of opening and closing the doors, and is indicated by the number of ★ marks.

ECO level Level 0 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
ECO GUIDE

○ represents a blinking display (such as when the doors are opened and closed frequently or the surrounding temperature of the refrigerator is hot).

• The ECO Level is indicated in 4 levels from 0 to 3. (Eco-friendly use can save power and increase the ECO level.)
• The ECO Level is updated about once every hour. (If there is no change in the ECO Level, the number of the mark does not change.)
• At the time of purchase, level 1 is displayed.
• The ECO GUIDE is displayed even when Energy Saving Mode is not set.
• After a door is closed, the ECO GUIDE and the ECO display light up for about 30 seconds (then they go off).
• When Energy Saving Mode is set, the compartment in power saving mode will light up.

*Even though Energy Saving Mode is set, the display does not light up if the compartment is not on the power-saving mode.

How can I increase the ECO level?

Set Energy Saving Mode

When the temperature inside the refrigerator is stable, the power-saving operation is performed automatically. This is not set initially.

Set Power Save Mode

Performs the power-saving operation by reducing refrigerating capacity. This mode can be set for the ice making and versa compartments. ▶Pages 24 - 25

Set the temperature relatively high

By setting the temperature of each compartment relatively high,

power consumption can be reduced. We also recommend setting the versa compartment to Soft-Freezing.

Do not open the doors more than necessary, and close them as soon as possible

If doors are opened frequently or are kept open for a long time, cold air escapes from the refrigerator and more power is consumed. •Even when a door is open only slightly, it can cause frost or condensation, reduce the cooling performance, or generate water drips.

When the blue light does not light up on either icon, the compartment is in the regular ice making mode.

● Regular ice making is set at the time of purchase.

About quick ice making

• In the following cases, quick ice making is stopped automatically.

• When the ice storage box is full (about 80 to 140 ice cubes)
• When there is no water in the water tank
• When about 10 hours have passed in quick ice making mode
  The blue light at the top left corner of the icon turns off.

Example

• The sound of the refrigerator running gets louder during fast cooling, because it is operating at high speed.
• It may take more than 24 hours to make ice immediately after installation, even in quick ice making mode.
• When quick ice making is performed, the ice may split or crack because the freezing is performed quickly.

Approximate ice making time

Quick ice making: 60 to 80 minutes

ular ice making: about 2 hours

• The ice making time is the approximate time for a single batch (10 to 12 ice cubes).
• In addition to the surrounding temperature, water type, and water volume and temperature in the water tank, ice making times may vary with the following conditions, and be longer than those described above.

• Supercool freezing finishes automatically after about 3 to 12 hours. (The time varies depending on the amount, temperature and type of food.) After supercool freezing finishes, the food is stored with Soft-Freezing. (Meat, fish, etc. can be stored for 2 to 3 weeks.)

• If you want to store the food for a long time, move it to the freezer compartment after supercool freezing has finished. (Meat, fi sh, etc. can be stored for about 1 month.)

• When a display other than ☐ turns off during supercool freezing, VR/ lights up.

• The door of the versa compartment can be opened and closed even during supercool freezing.
• You can use supercool freezing even when other foods are still inside.
• Supercool freezing cannot be performed during Power Save Mode or the freezing setting.
• Even after supercool freezing has finished, the food may not be completely frozen. (With supercool freezing and Soft-Freezing, food is frozen at about -7°C, so it takes about 24 hours for the food to freeze completely.)
• When adding foods to be stored, refrain from opening the doors often.
• Supercool freezing may not be possible or the degree of freezing or freezer burn may vary depending on the food type, cooking method, storage arrangement (stacking, storage location), the amount of food, and the storage time.
• Depending on how much sugar, salt, moisture, or fat the food contains, freezing may not be possible or the food may harden when frozen (cannot be cut immediately with a kitchen knife).
• If the food has frozen too hard, leave it for about 5 to 15 minutes at room temperature and you should be able to cut it with a kitchen knife.
• Adjust the temperature according to how the food is frozen. ▶ Pages 22 - 23

Tips for Supercool Freezing Soft-Freezing

Take it out and cook immediately!

Supercool freeze to savory taste!

Easy dessert recipe using fruits!

Supercool freeze in storage containers. Scoop out only the necessary amount and dress the pasta with it to make a meat sauce pasta.

Leftover curry and simmered meat and potatoes in storage containers can be supercool frozen while still hot. Even food containing potatoes can be stored without losing its taste.

Cut apple into large bite-size pieces, and kiwi into circular slices. Supercool freeze them. Put the supercool frozen apple and kiwi into a blender with milk and some honey.

Tips for Supercool Freezing

① Put foods at the same time.

Illustration of a shoe being inserted into a drawer with arrows indicating flow (no text or symbols)

If more food is added afterward, the supercool freezing may not work.

We recommend that hot food be separated from the frozen food and placed at the front.

● The hot food may touch and thaw the frozen food.
- If hot food and food below room temperature are placed inside at the same time, priority is given to cooling the hot food.

② Lay the food out fl at on top in the versa compartment.

Illustration of a drawer containing a tray with items, one labeled '3-Fax' (no other text or symbols)

The infrared sensor measures the temperature of food from the top of the versa

compartment.

Arrange the food in a way that makes it easy for the

sensor to measure the temperature.

Food not suitable for Supercool Freezing

● Food that has already thawed once

The texture and quality cannot be guaranteed.

● Food that cannot be frozen

(Konjac (devil's tongue), tofu, milk, raw eggs, etc.) Preservation of the pre-freezing texture and quality cannot be guaranteed.

- For preserving groceries like frozen foods and ice cream.

Store them in the freezer compartment.

Illustration of various food items including milk carton, ice cream, and instant noodles (no text or symbols)

Do not store food that is hotter than 80^ C.

If food is too hot, it may deform nearby containers. Also, when food is too hot to hold with your bare hands, be very careful not to burn yourself. (Freshly cooked rice is about 70^ C.)

• When Soft-Freezing after freezing, or freezing after Soft-Freezing, use the food within a short period of time (about 1 to 2 weeks).
• After supercool freezing has finished, if you want to store the food for a long time, move it to the freezer compartment quickly.
• When fruit is thawed it does not return to its original condition. Eat frozen fruit without thawing it.
• If fruit is stored for more than a week with Soft-Freezing, its taste may change. To enjoy the fresh texture, we recommend eating within 2 to 3 days.
• It can be cut 2 to 5 hours after transferring from freezing to Soft-Freezing.
• Avoid using aluminum foil or paper wrapping, because it interferes with accurate measurement of the food temperature.

Troubleshooting

First, check the items described in this section. If the problem persists, contact the retail store where you purchased the refrigerator as soon as possible.

■ Frequently asked questions in the initial period and in summer

■ Questions about operation and handling

The refrigerator does not cool at all!

• The refrigerator takes time to cool when you first start using it. In summer, it may take up to 24 hours for the inside to be fully cooled.
  ● Has on the operation panel turned on?
  → Demonstration operation: ▶ Page 32
• Is the power plug disconnected or has the circuit breaker tripped?

The outer walls heat up!

• The outer walls heat up signifi cantly (to about 50 to 60°C) immediately after installation and in summer. This is because the heat discharging and condensation prevention pipes are located on the sides and the top of the refrigerator. They are required for cooling and the heat is not an abnormality.
  ● The refrigerator compartment rotating partition also has a
  condensation prevention heater that heats up. ▶ Page 6
• A heat discharging fan is located under the refrigerator. Warm air may be discharged from here.
