Introduction

Important Safety Instruction

Avoid the heating devices.

Install in places away from

the fire such as the place

where flammable gas is

leaked.

It may cause fire.

Thinner

Do not place flower vase, cup,

cosmetics, medicine or any

container with water on the

fridge-freezer.

cause any risk.

The Academic

Medicine

The Medicine

Do not use the combustible

spray near the fridge- freezer.

It may cause fire.

In case of thunder and

lightning, or not in use for a

long period of time, detach the

power plug.

There is a danger of electric shock

or fire.

Thinner

Do not spray water at the

outside or the inside of the

fridge-freezer or do not clean

it with benzene or thinner.

Deterioration of insulation of

electric parts may cause electric

shock or fire.

ThinnerThinner

When any strange smell or

smoke is detected from the

fridge-freezer, disconnect

the power plug immediately

and contact to the service

center.

It may cause fire.

Thinner

When gas is leaked, do not touch the fridge-

freezer or the outlet and ventilate the room

immediately.

• The explosion by spark may

cause fire or burn.

• Because this fridge-freezer

uses natural gas (isobutane,

R600a) as the environment-

friendly refrigerant, even a

small amount (80~90 g) is combustible. When

the gas is leaked by the severe damage during

delivering, installing or using the fridge-freezer,

any spark may cause fire or burn.

Use the submerged fridge-

freezer after checking it.

It may cause electric shock or fire.

Important Safety Instruction

Precaution

• This fridge-freezer must be properly installed

and located in accordance with the

Installation Instruction before it is used.

• Never unplug your fridge-freezer by pulling

on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and

pull straight out from the outlet.

• After your fridge-freezer is in operation, do

not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer

compartment, particularly when hands are

damp or wet. Skin may adhere to these

extremely cold surfaces.

The supply plug of the refrigerator-freezer should

be placed in easy accessible position for quick

disconnection in emergency.

Risk of child entrapment.

Before you throw away your old refrigerator or

freezer, take off the doors.

Leave the shelves in place so that children may

not easily climb inside.

Accessibility of Supply Plug

Don't store or use gasoline or other flammable

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any

other appliance.

Don't store

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced

by the manufacturer or its service agent or a

similarly qualified person in order to avoid a

hazard.

Supply Cord Replacement

In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding

(earthing) reduces the risk of electric shock by

providing an escape wire for the electric current. In

order to prevent possible electric shock, this

appliance must be grounded. Improper use of the

grounding plug can result in an electric shock.

Grounding (Earthing)

DANGER

WARNING

Introduction

ENGLISH

Important Safety Instruction

Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance

enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of

obstruction.

Do not use mechanical devices or other

means to accelerate the defrosting process,

other than those recommended by the

manufacturer.

Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

Do not use electrical appliances inside the

food storage compartments of the appliance,

unless they are of the type recommended by

the manufacturer.

The refrigerant and insulation blowing gas

used in the appliance require special disposal

procedures. When disposal, please consult

with service agent or a similarly qualified

person.

This appliance contains a small amount of

isobutane refrigerant (R600a), natural gas

with high environmental compatibility, but it

is also 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 1 m

in size for every 8 g

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.

• If the wall socket is loose, do not insert the

power plug.

It may cause electric shock or fire.

• Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on

the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and

pull it straight out from the outlet.

You may disconnect a wire and cause a short

circuit.

• Do not use a wet or damp cloth when

cleaning the plug. Remove any foreign

matter from the power plug pins.

Otherwise, there is a risk of fire.

• After unplugging the appliance, wait for at

least five minutes before plugging it again

to the wall socket.

Abnormal operation of the freezer may cause

material damage.

• If the appliance is not to be used for a long

time, pull out the power plug.

Any deterioration in the insulation may cause

fire.

• Do not let children touch or play with the

control panel on the front of the appliance.

• The refrigerant used in fridge/freezer and

the gases in the insulation material require

special disposal procedures. Ensure that none

of the pipes on the back of the appliances

are damaged prior to disposal.

Please do not use a dishwasher to clean the lower

drawers; the high temperature may cause damage

to the baskets which make them unusable.
