RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
Your refrigerator must always be plugged to its own
outlet which is adequately grounded. The energy current
should only be 115 V ~ 60 Hz, AC or 127 V ~ 60 Hz, AC
(according to the National rating). and fused at 15 or 20
A. This provides the best performance and prevents an
overload which could cause a fire from the overheating
of the cables. It is recommended that a separate circuit
be used for this appliance, as well as a receptacle that
cannot be disconnected with a switch.
Do not use an extension cable.
It is your responsibility and obligation to replace two-
prong outlets with that of an adequately grounded three-
prong outlet.
Do not, under any circumstance, cut or extract the third
prong from the plug.
USE OF EXTENSION CABLES
We do not recommend the use of extension cables.
However, if you still choose to utilize an extension cable,
it is absolutely necessary that it is listed in the UL (in
the United States) or CSA (in Canada), that it supports
three-pronged plugs and that the electrical current
support a minimum of 15 A and 120 V.
The use of an extension cable will increase the amount
of space needed behind the refrigerator.

our service center or qualified LG technician to avoid
any risk.
