1) A defrost is determined based on the accumulated compressor on-time.
2) When the power is engaged for the first time, the defrost cycle for the freezer and the refrigerator will begin after 4
hours of the accumulated compressor on-time.
3) A defrost interval depends on the ambient temperature, the number of door openings, and the door open time.
4) A minimum interval is 6 hours and a maximum is 12 hours for the refrigerator, and 12 hours and 24 hours for the
freezer, respectively.
5) The defrost heater on-time is determined by the defrost sensors as follow :
9-1) 1
st
Step : It is an ice temperature checking step for ice ejection. It checks whether the ice temperature is lower than -
17.0 and it has passed 58 mins (58~110 mins : refere to table 3-1) after water supply.
- When F-Defrost goes into operation during the ice eject standby, it will be counted from the start after the
completion of Defrost and it will be checked if it has passed 58 minutes after the completion of F-Defrost.
When the Ice Maker Sensor temperature becomes lower than -17.0 and maintains it for 5 minutes , it will
proceed to the next stage.
9-2) 2
nd
Step: To separate ice from the ice tray, it will turn over the ice tray by rotating the Eject Motor clockwise.
- Ice Bin Full: When the Ice Eject S/W becomes on again within 3.6 seconds from the point that it is turned
off after the clockwise rotation of the Ice Eject Motor, it indicates Ice Bin Full. So, it will stop the clockwise
rotation and start counterclockwise rotation after one second. The sixth step will be carried out.
- Ice Eject S/W does not become on again within 3.6 seconds, it will be evaluated as Ice Bin Not Full. In this
case, normal ice eject operation will be carried out and it will perform the next 3
rd
step.
9-3) 3
rd
Step :
When the Ice Eject S/W does not become on again within 3.6 seconds from the point that it is turned off after the
clockwise rotation of the Ice Eject Motor, it is regarded as normal ice eject operation. When the F-Door is opened
during the ice ejecting operation ever since, it will hold the operation and operate again with the door closed.
9-4) 4
th
Step : When the Ice Eject S/W is turned on after 3.6 seconds, it will stop rotating. And, it will be regarded as the
maximum twist point and it will standby for a second at this maximum twist point.
9-5) 5
th
Step : It is a step that the ice tray restores to its horizontal position by rotating the Ice Eject Motor counter
clockwise. After the 4 th Step, the Ice Eject Motor will rotate counter clockwise. At this time, the Ice Eject
S/W will check signals called “ Return Pulse” from the Feeler Arm whether there is ice in the ice bin or not.
9-6) 6
th
Step :
When the Ice Eject S/W becomes on after the detection of “ Return Pulse” , it will stop the counter clockwise
rotation of the Ice Eject Motor and consider it to be leveled horizontally. At this time, if it is restored to its
horizontal position after the detection of Ice Bin Full, it will not supply water and try to eject ice every hour
until the Ice Bin Full is cancelled. Also, it will supply water when normal ice ejection is carried out.
