READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury when using your product, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the following.
In the event of a refrigerant leak, move flammable objects away from the refrigerator.
Ventilate sufficiently and contact an authorized service center.
Do not use or place flammable substances (chemicals, medicine, cosmetics, etc) near the
refrigerator or store them inside the refrigerator. Do not place the refrigerator in the vicinity of
flammable gas.
This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as
- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;
- farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;
- bed and breakfast type environments;
- catering and similar non-retail applications.
Do not use this product for special purposes (storage of medicine or test materials or for ships,
etc).
Unplug the power plug before cleaning or repairing the refrigerator.
When you replace the light bulb in the refrigerator, unplug the refrigerator or turn off the power.
Do not modify or extend the power cord.
Do not use a dryer to dry the interior. Do not light a candle to remove the interior odor.
For your safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. Have the wall outlet and the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
Do not use an outlet that can be turned off with a switch. Do not use an extension cord. It is the
user's responsibility to replace a standard 2-prong wall outlet with a standard 3-prong wall outlet.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Do not use an adapter plug and plug the power plug into a multi-outlet extension cord.
Disconnect the power cord immediately if you hear a noise, smell a strange odor or detect smoke.
Turn the power off if water or dust penetrates into the refrigerator. Call a service agent.
Do not disassemble or modify the refrigerator.
Do not put hands, feet, or metal objects below or behind the refrigerator.
Do not operate the refrigerator or touch the power cord with wet hands.
In refrigerators with automatic icemakers, avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector
mechanism or with the heating element that releases the cubes. Do not place fingers or hands on
the automatic ice-making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
When dispensing ice from the dispenser, do not use crystal ceramics.
Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment with wet or damp hands, when your
refrigerator is in operation.
Do not put glass containers, glass bottles or soda in the freezer.
Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this
appliance.
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 the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
Do not refreeze frozen food that have thawed completely. It may result in a serious health issue.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the CFC coolant is removed for proper
disposal by a qualified servicer. If you release CFC coolant, you may be fined or imprisoned in
accordance with the relevant environmental law.
Junked or abandoned refrigerators are dangerous, even if they are sitting for only a few days.
When disposing 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 the refrigerant gas has leaked, do not touch the refrigerator or the outlet and ventilate the room
immediately. A spark could trigger an explosion causing a fire or burns. Because this refrigerator
uses natural gas (isobutene, R600a) as the environment-friendly refrigerant, even a small amount
(50~60g) is combustible. If gas leaks from severe damage during delivering, installing or using the
refrigerator, any spark may cause fire or burns.
