• In the event of a refrigerant leak, move flammable objects away from the appliance. Ensure the area is
adequately ventilated and contact an authorized service center.
• Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from the appliance.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Unplug the power plug before cleaning or repairing the appliance.
• The refrigerator compartment lights are interior LED lighting, and service should be performed by a
qualified technician.
• Unplug the power plug immediately in the event of a blackout or thunderstorm.
• Turn the power off if water or dust penetrates into the appliance. Call a service agent.
• Do not store, disassemble or repair the appliance yourself or allow unqualified personnel to do so.
Disposal
• Junked or abandoned appliances are dangerous, even if they are sitting for only a few days. When
disposing of the appliance, remove the packing materials from the door or take off the doors but leave
the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
• If disposing of an appliance, make sure the refrigerant and insulation foam are removed for proper
disposal by a qualified servicer. If you release the refrigerant or throw away the insulation foam, you
may be fined or imprisoned in accordance with the relevant environmental law. Insulation foam contains
flammable blowing gas.
• When discarding the appliance, remove the door gasket while leaving the shelves and bins in place, and
keep children away from the appliance.
Grounding Instructions
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• Have a certified electrician check the wall outlet and wiring for proper grounding.
• Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight
out from the outlet. Failure to do so may damage the power cord, resulting in a risk of fire and electric
shock.
Risk of Fire and Flammable Materials
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.
