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:
NEVER unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull it straight out from the outlet.
Repair or replace inmediately 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 it in any way.
Do not crush or damage the water line.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Do not allow children to climb, stand, or hang on the refrigerator doors or shelves in refrigerator. They could damage the refrigerator and seriously injure themshelves.
Keep fingers out of “pinch point” areas; clearances between the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful when you open the doors when children

|

Ensure proper |

before use. |
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 threeprong 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 (in the United States), 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a groundind 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.
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 any hazard.

Where to install
Unstable installation may cause vibration and noise. If the oor to install the refrigerator on is not even, make the refrigerator level by rotating the height adjusting screw. Carpet or oor covering on which a refrigerator is installed may be discolored by heat from the bottom of the refrigerator.
If our refrigerator causes this kind of damage, there is something wrong with it. Customers will not stand for this.
Please keep the refrigerator at a proper distance from other things. Too small a distance from adjacent items may result in lowered freezing capability and increased electricity consumption charges .

Installation
Where water supply can be easily connected in a dry place
Select a place where a water supply can be easily connected between the automatic ice maker and dispenser. Installing the refrigerator in a wet or damp
area may cause rust and may be an electrical
hazard.
Bottom Pad
Where it is free from heat
If this refrigerator is installed where the ambient temperature is high, the freezing capacity is deteriorated and the cost of electricity used increases.
NOTE
•Install the refrigerator at a place where the ambient temperature is 5˚C ~ 43˚C (41˚F ~110˚F).
Ambient temperature outside this range may cause product malfunction. Also, the tube between the dispenser and automatic ice maker may freeze.

Feed water tube installation |
||
Before |
Automatic icemaker |
operation needs water pressure of 21.3~121psi(lb/inch2) (That |
|
Installation |
is, a 7oz. paper cup |
will be filled within 3 sec.). |
|
|
If water pressure does not |
reach the rated 21.3psi(lb/inch2 ) or below, it is necessary |
|
|
to purchase a separate pressure pump for normal automatic icemaking and cool |
||
|
water feed. |
|
|
|
Keep the total length of |
the water feed tube within 40 feet and be careful not to |
|
|
bend or kink the tube. If the tube is longer than 40 feet, the icemaker and water |
||
|
dispenser will not operate properly. |
||
|
Install the water feed tube at a place free from heat. |
||
Warning |
Connect to potable water supply only. |
||
Refer to instructions with water filter kit for installation. |

|
to the OFF position to prevent operation without water. |
•All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
•Use copper tubing and check for leaks.
•Install copper tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain above freezing.
•It may take up to 24 hours for your icemaker to begin producing ice.
