cooling ability may be adversely affected.

3.Allow the clearance of at least 2 inch from the ceiling and 1

inch from the side walls for better cooling efficiency, installation, proper air circulation and electrical connections.

w CAUTION: Avoid placing the unit near heat sources, direct sunlight or moisture.

NEXT

1.Clean your refrigerator thoroughly and wipe off all dust accumulated during shipping.

2.Install accessories such as ice cube bin, drawers,

in their proper places. They are packed together to prevent possible damage during shipment.

3.Let your refrigerator run for at least 2 or 3 hours before putting food in it. Check the flow of cold air in the freezer compartment to ensure proper cooling. Your

refrigerator is now ready for use.

w WARNING

stopper etc. You may be injured.

base grille or bottom of refrigerator. You may be injured

or receive an electrical shock.
