• Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from the refrigerator.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Unplug the power plug before cleaning or repairing
the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator and freezer compartment lights are
interior LED lighting, and service should be performed
by a qualified technician.
WARNING: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
• Junked or abandoned refrigerators are dangerous, even if they are sitting for only a few days.
When disposing of the refrigerator, remove the packing materials from the door or take off the
doors but leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
• If disposing of a refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant and insulation foam are removed for
proper disposal by a qualified servicer. If you release the refrigerant or throw away the insulation
foam, you may be fined or imprisoned in accordance with the relevant environmental law.
Insulation foam contains flammable blowing gas.
• When discarding the appliance, remove the door gasket while leaving the shelves and baskets in
place, and keep children away from the appliance.
WARNING: RISK OF FIRE AND FLAMMABLE MATERIALS
• This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), which is combustible.
When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts of
the refrigerating circuit are damaged. Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause
an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames or potential sources of ignition and
air the room in which the appliance is standing for several minutes.
• In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating
circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the amount
of refrigerant used. The room must be 10.8 square feet (1 square meter) in size for every 8g of
R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is
shown on the identification plate inside the appliance. Never start up an appliance showing any
signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system
that used CFCs or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or
hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs and HCFCs are
believed to harm stratospheric ozone if released to the
atmosphere. Other refrigerants may also cause harm to
the environment if released to the atmosphere.
WARNING
• Unplug the power plug immediately in the event of a
blackout or thunderstorm.
• Turn the power off if water or dust penetrates into the
refrigerator. Call a service agent.
• Do not store glass containers or soda in the freezer
compartment. Contents may expand when frozen,
break the container and cause injury.
• Do not store, disassemble or repair the appliance
yourself or allow unqualified personnel to do so.
CFC/HCFC DISPOSAL
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make
sure the refrigerant is removed for proper disposal
by a qualified technician. If you intentionally release
refrigerant, you may be subject to fines and imprisonment
under provisions of environmental legislation.
