Safety information _03
• Do not install this appliance in a location where
gas may leak.
- This may result in an electric shock or fire.
• This refrigerator must be properly
located and installed in accordance with
the instructions in this manual before
you use it.
• Connect the power plug in the proper position
with the cord hanging down.
- If you connect the power plug upside down,
the wire can get cut off and cause a fire or
electric shock.
• When moving the refrigerator, be careful not to
roll over or damage the power cord.
- This constitutes a fire hazard.
• Make sure that the power plug is not squashed
or damaged by the back of the refrigerator.
• Keep the packing materials out of reach of children.
- There is a risk of death from suffocation if a child
puts the packing materials on his or her head.
• The appliance must be positioned so that the
plug is accessible after installation.
• You need to remove all the protective plastic
film before you initially plug the product in.
• The refrigerator must be safely grounded.
- Always make sure that you have
grounded the refrigerator before
attempting to investigate or repair any
part of the appliance. Power leakages
can cause severe electric shock.
• Never use gas pipes, telephone lines, or other
potential lightning attractors as an electrical
ground.
- Improper use of the grounding plug can result
in a risk of electric shock. If it is necessary
to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept
the plug on the appliance. The marked rating
of the extension cord should be AC115-120 V,
10 A, or more. If a grounding adapter is used,
make sure the receptacle box is fully grounded.
• If the power cord is damaged,
have it replaced immediately by the
manufacturer or its service agent.

refrigerator and install it on a flat surface.

enclosure or mounting structure clear of
obstruction.
• Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hours after
