should only be 115 V ~ 60 Hz, AC or 127 V ~ 60 Hz, AC
(according to the National rating). and fused at 15 or 20
A. This provides the best performance and prevents an
overload which could cause a fire from the overheating

it is absolutely necessary that it is listed in the UL (in
the United States) or CSA (in Canada), that it supports
three-pronged plugs and that the electrical current
support a minimum of 15 A and 120 V.
The use of an extension cable will increase the amount
of space needed behind the refrigerator.

our service center or qualified LG technician to avoid
any risk.
Do not extend or modify the power cord length, damage
the power cord may cause electric shock or damage the
