Introduction

Use the submerged refrigerator after checking it.

It may cause electric shock or fire.

In case of thunder and lightning, or not in use for a long
period of time, detach the power plug.

There is a danger of electric shock or fire.

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

• The explosion by spark may cause fire or burn.
• Because this refrigerator uses natural gas (isobutene,

R600a) as the environment-friendly refrigerant, even a
small amount (70~90g) is combustible. When the gas is
leaked by the severe damage during delivering, installing
or using the refrigerator, any spark may cause fire or burn. 

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.

Do not move refrigerator while the refrigerator is operating.

Compressor may occur a temporary rattling noise. (This is normal and will not impact
on the performance or the life of the compressor. The rattling will stop after the
refrigerator comes to a rest.)

Thinner

Thinner

Do not place flower vase, cup, cosmetics, medicine or
any container with water on the refrigerator.

It may cause fire, electric shock or injury by dropping down.

Install in places away from the fire such as the place
where flammable gas is leaked.

It may cause fire.

Do not use the combustible spray near the refrigerator.

It may cause fire.
