Before it is used, this refrigerator must be properly installed and located in accordance with the installation instructions in this document. This Refrigerator is intended for Domestic indoor use only.

Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull it straight out from the outlet.

When moving your appliance away from the wall, be careful not to roll over the power cord or to damage it in any way.

After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment, particularly when your hands are damp or wet. Skin could adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.

Unplug the power cord from the power outlet for cleaning or other maintenance. Never touch the appliance with wet hands as you may receive an electric shock or injure yourself.

Never damage, press, severely bend, pull or twist the power cord as damage to the cord may cause fire or electric shock. Never touch the cord if you are uncertain if the appliance is correctly earthed.

Never put your hands into the storage bin of the automatic ice maker as you could be injured during its operation.

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.

Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand or hang on the refreshment centre door. These actions may damage the refrigerator and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury.

It is advised that this appliance should be connected through an independent power socket to prevent it and other appliances from overloading the circuit and causing a power outage.

The appliance should be positioned so that the supply plug is easily accessible for quick disconnection should an accident occur.

Warning		Before you dispose of your old refrigerator please remove doors but leave the shelves
		in place so that children cannot climb inside.
		This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
		physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
		they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by
		a person responsible for their safety.
		Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Don’t store		Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapour and liquids in the vicinity of
Warning		this or any other appliance.
Grounding		In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding (earthing) reduces the risk of
(Earthing)		electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
Warning		In order to prevent possible electric shock this appliance must be earthed. Improper
		connection of the earthing plug can cause electric shock. Consult a qualified
		electrician or service engineer if the earthing instructions are not completely
		understood, or if you have doubts as to whether the appliance is properly earthed.
Warning
		Keep ventilation openings in the room where the appliance is installed 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.
		Disposal procedures. If disposing of this appliance, please consult with a service
		agent or a similarly qualified person for more details.

This appliance may contain (Check the rating/comliance label for the refrigerant type and amount. Applicable to some models only) 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 1m2 in size for every 8g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the identication plate inside the

5appliance. Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

Installation

Feed water pipe installation (Dispenser model only)

Before

▪Automatic ice maker operation needs water pressure of 147~834kPa

installation

(1.5~8.5kgf/cm2) (The pressure is correct when an instant paper cup (180cc) is

filled in 3 sec.).

▪If water pressure does not reach the rating 147kPa(1.5kgf/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 8m and be careful that

the tube does not bend. If the tube is 8m or longer it may cause water feed prob-

lems owing to the drain water pressure.

Warning

▪Install the feed water pipe tube at a place free from heat.

▪Connect to drinking water supply only.

▪Refer to instructions with water filter kit for installation.
