•• If the refrigerator is fitted with light bulbs and require replacing, unplug the refrigerator or turn off the power before doing so.
•• Do not modify or extend the power cord.
•• Do not use a hair dryer to dry the interior. Do not light a candle to remove any interior odor.
•• For your 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.
•• Do not use an outlet that can be turned off via a remote switch. Do not use an extension cord. It is the user’s responsibility to replace a standard 2-prong wall outlet with a standard 3-prong wall outlet.
•• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
•• Do not use an adapter plug and plug the power plug into a multi-outlet extension cord.
•• Disconnect the power cord immediately if you hear a noise, smell a strange odor or detect smoke.
•• Turn the power off if dust or water from above or below penetrates into the refrigerator. Call a service agent.
•• Do not disassemble or modify the refrigerator.
•• Do not put hands, feet, or metal objects below or behind the refrigerator.
•• Do not operate the refrigerator or touch the power cord with wet hands.
•• In refrigerators with automatic icemakers, avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism or with the heating element that releases the cubes. Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic ice-making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
•• When dispensing ice from the dispenser, do not use crystal ceramics.
•• Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment with wet or damp hands, when your refrigerator is in operation.
•• Do not put glass containers, glass bottles or beverage cans in the freezer.
•• Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.
•• 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 the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
•• Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. It may result in serious health issues.
•• If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the CFC coolant is removed for proper disposal by a qualified servicer. If you release CFC coolant, you may be fined or imprisoned in accordance with the relevant environmental law.
•• Disposed or abandoned refrigerators are dangerous, even if they are sitting for only a few days. When disposing the refrigerator, remove the packing materials from the door or take off the doors but leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
•• If the refrigerant gas has leaked, do not touch the refrigerator or the power outlet and ventilate the room immediately. A spark could trigger an explosion causing a fire or burns. Because this refrigerator uses natural gas (isobutene, R600a) as the environment-friendly refrigerant, even a small amount (50~80g) is combustible. If gas leaks from severe damage during delivering, installing or using the refrigerator, any spark may cause fire or burns.
•• If there is a damage of the drawer rail or if the operation is not fluent, do not use it, and contact the servcie center to receive service before using it.

6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury when using your product, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following.
CAUTION
Installation
•• The refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the Installer Instructions that were taped to the front of the refrigerator.
•• Be careful when you unpack and install the refrigerator. Immediately dispose of packing materials (plastic) out of reach of children.
Use
•• Close the doors carefully when children are around.
•• Keep fingers out of pinch point areas; clearances between the doors and cabinets are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children are in the area.
•• If food is stacked or stored poorly on the shelves, it may fall and cause injury when the door is opened.
•• Do not move refrigerator while the refrigerator is operating. A Compressor rattling noise may occur as a result and will only stop when the compressor cycles off, or when the power to the unit is turned off and back on again. (This is normal and will not impact on the performance or the life of the compressor. The rattling will stop after the compressor comes to a rest.)
Maintenance
•• Do not use strong detergents like wax or thinners for cleaning. Clean with a soft fabric.
•• Wipe foreign objects (dust, water, etc) off the prongs of the power plug and contact areas before connecting.
WARNING
•• Use drinkable water for ice making.
WARNING
•• 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 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.
•• 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.
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 1m2 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.
