Installation

••This appliance should only be transported by two or more people holding the appliance securely.

••Ensure that the socket outlet is properly grounded, and that the earth pin on the power cord is not damaged or removed from the power plug. For more details on grounding, inquire at an LG Electronics customer information centre.

••This appliance is equipped with a power cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding power plug. The power plug must be plugged into an appropriate socket outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

••If the power cord is damaged or the holes of the socket outlet is loose, do not use the power cord and contact an authorized service centre.

••Do not plug the appliance into a multi socket adapter which does not have a power cable (mounted).

••Do not modify or extend the power cable.

••The appliance should be connected to a dedicated power line which is separately fused.

••Do not use a multi socket outlet which is not properly grounded (portable). In case of using a properly-grounded multi socket outlet (portable), use the multi socket outlet with the current capacity of the power code rating or higher and use the multi socket outlet only for the appliance.

••Install the appliance in a place where is easy to unplug the power plug of the appliance.

••New hose-sets supplied with the appliance are to be used and that old hose-sets should not be reused.

••Connect the water pipe of the appliance to potable water only. Water other than potable water can increase the risk of exposure to disease. Other types of water can reduce the appliance life or cause malfunctions.

Operation

••Unplug the power plug during a severe thunderstorm or lightening or when not in use for a long period of time.

••Do not touch the power plug or the appliance controls with wet hands.

••Do not bend the power cable excessively or place a heavy object on it.

••If water penetrates electrical parts of the appliance, disconnect power plug and contact an LG Electronics customer information centre.

••Do not plug and unplug the power plug repeatedly.

••Do not place hands or metallic objects inside the cover or heat releasing grille on the back.

••Do not apply excessive force or impact to the back cover of the appliance.

••Do not place heavy or fragile objects, containers filled with liquid, combustible substances, flammable objects(such candles, lamps, etc.), or heating devices(such as stoves, heaters, etc.) on the appliance.

••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 use or store flammable or combustible substances (ether, benzene, alcohol, chemical, LPG, combustible spray, insecticide, air freshener, cosmetics, etc.) near the appliance.

••Immediately unplug the power plug and contact an LG Electronics customer information centre if you detect a strange sound, odour, or smoke coming from the appliance.

••If water is leaking from the inside of the appliance or water has collected near the appliance, close the water supply valve, unplug the power plug.

••Do not move the appliance while the appliance is plugged in.

••UV radiation is dangerous for the eyes and skin. Do not operate the UV-C emitter outside the appliance.

••Do not operate the UV-C emitter when it is removed from the appliance enclosure.

••The method, frequency of cleaning, and neccessary precautions to be taken; precautions to be takes when replacing UV-C emitters and starters, if applicable.

••This appliance contains a UV-C emitter.

••Unintended use of the appliance or damage to the housing may result in the escape of dangerous UV-C radiation. UV-C radiation may, even in little doses, cause harm to the eyes and skin.

••Appliances that are obviously damaged must not be operated.

••If the replacement of the UV-C emitter by the user is not allowed, this must be clearly started.

••Read the maintanance instructions before opening the appliance.

••The appliance must be disconnected from the supply before replacing the UV-C emitter.

••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 is used should correspond to the amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 1 m² in size for every 8 g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance.

••The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance.
