Introduction
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 1m
2
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.
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 sealed system or any piping in or within the refrigerator.
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.

Important Safety Instruction
Introduction
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your
product, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following.
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
A dedicated outlet should be used.
• Using several devices at one outlet may cause fire.
• If unit is connected to an earth leakage breaker it may trip
resulting in spoiled food. This could occur due to power
supply circumstances, and may not necessarily mean a
refrigerator malfunction.
Prevent the power cord from being crushed or kinked if the refrigerator is
pushed in after the power plug is extracted during the installation.
When moving your appliance away from the wall, be careful not to roll over the
power cord or to damage it in any way.
Crushed or kinked cables can become the cause of fire or electric shock.
Do not allow heavy objects to kink or crush the power
cord.
It may damage the power cord and become a cause of fire or
electric shock.
Do not allow the power plug to face upward or to be
crushed at the back of the refrigerator.
If the cord is crushed behind the refrigerator it may damage
the cable resulting in fire. An upward facing plug may pull
loose under the weight of the cord resulting in electrical failure
causing fire or the refrigerator turning off and spoiling food.
Do not extend or modify the length of the power plug.
This may become the cause of fire or electric shock.
Unplug the power plug when cleaning, handling or
replacing the interior lamp of the refrigerator.
• Not doing so may cause electric shock or injury.

If the interior lighting is LED type, then it cannot be changed
by the user. Please call an authorised Service provider or
the manufacturer.
Introduction
Remove water or dust from the power plug and insert it
with the ends of the pins securely connected.
Dust, water or an unstable connection may cause fire or
electric shock.
Unplug the power cord from the power outlet for cleaning or other
requirements.
Not doing so may cause electric shock or injury.
Make sure of grounding.
Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood,
or if you have doubts on whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
Incorrect grounding may lead to electric shock in the event
of a breakdown.
Always have unit grounded in accordance with local regulations.
Be sure to use a properly grounded extension lead if an extension lead must be
used.
If incorrectly grounded it may become the cause of a fire.
When the power cord or the power plug is damaged or
the power outlet is loose or damaged, do not plug the
power cord into the power outlet.
Doing so may cause electric shock or be the cause of a fire.
If the mains plug is removed from the wall outlet for any
reason, wait for 5 minutes or longer before reconnecting
the plug.
Not doing so may cause the operation of the refrigerator to fail.
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.
Do not disconnect by pulling on the cord. Always
disconnect by grasping and pulling on the plug top.
Pulling on the cable may damage the cable resulting in electric
shock or fire.
Do not pull out the cord or touch the power plug with wet
hands.
It may cause electric shock or injury.

Introduction
Do not place heavy objects or liquid filled objects on the
top of the refrigerator.
Heavy objects may fall when opening and closing doors
resulting in injury. Liquid filled objects may leak or fall and break
resulting in injury, or electric shock.
Do not install the refrigerator in a damp or wet environment.
Moisture may penetrate electrical components resulting in fire or
electric shock.
This refrigerator is intended for normal domestic indoor use. It must not be
used outdoors, or stored in an out door location that is exposed to any
weathering conditions.
Do not lean on or hang from the doors or shelves of the
refrigerator.
This will damage the doors and shelves of the refrigerator or
cause it to topple over resulting in serious injury and damage.
Always supervise children when they are near the refrigerator.
Never Allow children to enter or play inside the
compartments of the product.
It may endanger the life of a child if the child enters the
refrigerator.
Take care when opening and closing the refrigerator doors. Vigorous opening
or closing may cause the contents to topple out resulting in injury or damage.
It is normal for the Freezer door to open if the refrigerator door is closed with
excessive force.
Do not store or use Inflammable materials in or
around the refrigerator.
It may become the cause of an explosion or fire.
Do not use or place heated or flame based scented
products (Such as scented candles or incent burners) in or
on the fridge to deodorise.
It may become the cause of an explosion or fire.
Do not store medical supplies, temperature critical
medicines, or scientific materials in the refrigerator.
If materials with strict temperature restrictions are stored they
may deteriorate or react undesirably resulting in possible harm
or risk.

2. When using the refrigerator
Introduction
DO NOT use a water damaged unit until it has been
certified safe by a licensed electrician or similarly qualified
person.
It may cause an electric shock or fire.
In case of a heavy electrical storm or if unit is not to be
used for a long period of time, disconnect the power plug.
There is a possibility of electrical damage. This may lead to an
electric shock or fire.
If a gas leak is detected, do not touch the refrigerator
or the outlet and ventilate the room immediately.
• Any spark my result in an explosion or fire.
• Because this refrigerator uses natural gas (isobutene,
R600a) as the environment-friendly refrigerant, even a
small amount (80~90g) is combustible. If a gas leak occurs
due to severe damage during delivery, installation or a
sealed system malfunction, a spark may cause a fire.
Do not place flower vases, cups, cosmetics, medicine or
any container with water on the refrigerator.
They may fall, leak or spill resulting in possible electric shock
or fire.
Install in places away from the heat sources such as
fireplaces, heaters and ovens. Pay particular attention
to avoid locating near gas related products.
Not doing so may become the cause of an explosion or fire.
Do not use any combustible spray near the refrigerator.
It may become the cause of an explosion or fire.

refrigerator. Do not use alcohol or mineral based cleaners
on the refrigerator (such as Benzene or Thinners).
These may deteriorate or penetrate the insulation or electrical
components resulting in possible electric shock, fire or
damage to refrigerator.
When any strange smell or smoke is detected from the
refrigerator, disconnect the power plug immediately
and contact to the service center.
Continuing to run unit may result in damage or fire.
