Risk of Fire and Flammable Materials
CAUTION
CAUTION
• To reduce the risk of minor or moderate injury to persons, malfunction, or damage to the product or
property when using this product, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Installation
• Do not install the appliance where there may be a danger of the unit falling.
• The appliance must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions.
• Do not connect this appliance to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet. If the appliance is
connected to a GFCI outlet, the outlet's circuit breaker could be tripped. If this problem occurs, reset the
GFCI outlet's circuit breaker. If the problem continues, contact a qualified electrician and replace the
GFCI outlet with a non-GFCI outlet.
Operation
• Do not use aerosols near the appliance.
• This appliance is intended to be used only in domestic and similar applications.
• Do not strike or apply excessive force to any glass surface. Do not touch glass surfaces if they are
cracked or broken.
• Do not overfill or pack items too tightly into door bins. Doing so may cause damage to the bin or
personal injury if items are removed with excessive force.
Maintenance
• Do not use strong detergents like wax or thinners for cleaning. Clean with a soft cloth.
• Remove foreign objects (such as dust and water) off the prongs of the power plug and contact areas. Do
not use a wet or damp cloth when cleaning the plug.
• Do not spray water directly on the inside or outside of the appliance.
• Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. They may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes.
This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), which is 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 out 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 10.8 square feet (1 square meter) 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.
