SAFETY MESSAGES
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This guide contains many important safety messages. Always read and obey all safety messages.
This is the safety alert symbol. It alerts you to safety messages that inform you of hazards that can kill or hurt you or others, or cause damage to the product.
All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the hazard signal word DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION. These words mean:
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or product damage only.
All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
w DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous…even if they will sit for just a few days. If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions at right to help prevent accidents.
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.
CFC DISPOSAL
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are believed to harm stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the CFC refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a qualified servicer. If you intentionally release this CFC refrigerant, you can be subject to fines and imprisonment under provisions of environmental legislation.

GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.
TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
w WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
FOR PERSONAL 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.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated for 230 Volts, 50 Hz, AC only, and fused at 15 or 20 amperes.
This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off with a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension cord.
Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning,or removing a light bulb, turn the control
(Thermostat, Refrigerator Control or Freezer Control, depending on the model)to OFF and then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you are finished,reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator Control or Freezer Control, depending on the model) to the desired setting.
w WARNING
•Repair or replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either the plug or connector end.
•When moving your refrigerator away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
•Keep fingers out of pinch point areas; clearances between the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children are in the area.
•This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the Attention Installer Instructions that were taped to the front of the refrigerator.
•Don’t touch the lamp, in case of light on the long time, Because it can be very hot.
•DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely. The United States Department of
Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:
…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold—below 4°C.
…Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that have any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or questionable, get rid of it.
The food may be dangerous to eat.
Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables and prepared foods. The eating quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible to save as much of their quality as you can.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Don’t use an extension cord
If possible, connect the refrigerator to its own individual electrical outlet to prevent it and other appliances or household lights from causing an overload that could cause a power outage.
Accessibility of Supply Plug
The refrigerator-freezer should be so positioned that the supply plug is accessible for quick disconnection when accident happens.
Supply Cord Replacement
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.
FEED WATER PIPE INSTALLATION
Before installation
•Automatic ice maker can be installed only by manufacturer.
•Automatic ice maker operation needs water pressure of 147~834 kPa (1.5~8.5 kgf/cm2)
(That is, an instant paper cup (180 cc) will be fully filled within 3 sec.).
•If water pressure does not reach the rating 147 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2) or below, it is necessary to purchase a separate pressure pump for normal automatic icing and cool water feed.
•Keep the total length of the feed water pipe tube within 8 m and be careful for the tube not be bent. If the tube is 8 m or longer it may cause trouble in water feed owing to the drain water pressure.
•Install the feed water pipe tube at a place free from heat.
wWARNING
•Connect to potable water supply only.
•Refer to instructions with water filter kit for installation.
wWARNING
•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.
wWARNING
•Please do not use a dishwasher to clean the lower drawers; the high temperature may cause damage to the baskets which make them unusable.
