IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

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.

1. When connecting the power

Do not use many power outlets.

•Using several devices at one outlet may cause fire.

•The electric leakage breaker may

damage food and

the dispenser may

be leaked.

Prevent the power cord from being squeezed or imprinted if the refrigerator is pushed in after the power plug is extracted during the installation.

It becomes the cause of fire or electric shock.

Do not allow the power plug to face upward or to be squeezed at the back of the refrigerator.

Water may be flown

into or the plug may

be damaged, which causes fire or

electric shock.

Do not allow the power cord bent or pressed by the heavy object to be damaged.

It may damage the power cord to cause

fire or electric shock.

Do not extend or modify the length of the power plug.

It causes electric shock or fire by the electric damage of the power cord or others.

Pull out the power plug not by grasping the cord but the plug of its end.

It may cause electric shock or short circuit to fire.

Unplug the power plug when cleaning, handling or replacing the interior lamp of the refrigerator.

• It may cause electric shock or injury.

Remove water or dust from the power plug and insert it with the ends of the pins securely connected.

Dust, water or unstable connection may fire or electric shock.

After 5minutes

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

2. When using the refrigerator

When gas is leaked, do not touch the refrigerator or the air outlet and ventilate the room immediately.

-The explosion by spark may cause fire or burn.

-If there is a gas leakage (isobutane, propane, natural gas, etc.), do not touch the appliance or power plug and ventilate the area immediately. This appliance uses a refrigerant gas (isobutane,R600a). Although it uses a small amount of the gas, it is still combustible gas. Gas leakage during appliance transport, installation or operation can cause fire, explosion or injury if sparks are caused.

Do not spray water at the outside or the inside of the refrigerator or do not clean it with benzene or thinner.

Deterioration of insulation of electric parts may cause electric shock or fire.
