SENSOR HEATER CONTROLLING METHOD OF FULL ICE DETECTING APPARATUS OF ICE MAKER FOR REFRIGERATOR

摘要

PURPOSE: A sensor heater control method of an ice amount sensing device of a refrigerator ice maker is provided to perform a step of determining whether an ice container is full of ice several times, thereby exactly sensing whether the ice container is full of ice. CONSTITUTION: An ice maker and an ice amount sensor are operated(S100). By the ice amount sensor, it is determined whether an ice container is full of ice several times(S110). While the ice amount sensor determines whether the ice container is full of ice, a sensor heater which can apply heat to the ice amount sensor is operated(S120). If it is determined that the ice container is not full of ice, the sensor heater is turned off(S140).
