CAUTION
WARNING
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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
DANGER
You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.
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, or CAUTION. These words mean:
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.
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.

IMPORTANT:
Please read carefully.
TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own
individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated for
115 Volts, 60 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.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of
an extension cord. However, if you still elect to use an
extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a
UL-listed (USA), 3-wire grounding type appliance
extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet,
and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes
(minimum) and 120 volts.
Use of an extension cord will increase the clearance
needed for the back of the refrigerator.
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.
Ensure proper
ground exists
before use.

GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS
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
40°F (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.

UNPACKING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Remove tape and any temporary labels from your
refrigerator before using. Do not remove any warning-
type labels, the model and serial number label, or the
TechSheet that is attached to back wall of the refrigerator.
To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area
briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue residue can also be
easily removed by rubbing a small amount of liquid dish
soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm
water and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable
fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These
products can damage the surface of your refrigerator. For
more information, see the Important Safety Instructions
section.
Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping position.
Please reinstall shelves according to your individual
storage needs.
INSTALLATION
1. To avoid vibration, the unit must be level. If required,
adjust the leveling legs to compensate for unevenness
of the floor. The front should be slightly higher than the
rear to aid in door closing. Leveling legs can be turned
easily by tipping the cabinet slightly. Turn the leveling
legs clockwise ( ) to raise the unit,
counterclockwise ( ) to lower it.
2. Install this appliance in an area where the temperature
is between 55°F (13°C) and 110°F (43°C.) If the
temperature around the appliance is too low or high,
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, ease of
installation, proper air circulation and electrical connections.
: 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,
shelves, etc., 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
• Be careful when you work with hinge, base grille,
stopper etc. You may be injured.
• Do not put hands or foot or metal sticks into air vents,
base grille, or bottom of refrigerator. You may be injured
or receive an electrical shock.
