Installation
3. Plug into a wall outlet.
Plug into a wall outlet of the rated voltage on its own with the rated current and insert plug fully.
●
The power plug can be plugged into an outlet immediately after installation.
●
The surroundings and surfaces (side surfaces) of the refrigerator may become hot
(approximately 50 °C to 60 °C when the ambient temperature is 30 °C) when the power is turned on, but this
is not abnormal. (P. 23)
●
If the power plug is removed, wait at least 7 minutes before plugging it back in. (P. 25)
●
If there is no grounding wiring plug in refrigerator, it should be connected with grounding connection to
prevent electrical hazard due to electric leakage.
For safety, the refrigerator should be grounded
(For refrigerators with ungrounded 2-pin plugs)
A ground connection will prevent danger from electric shock.
A ground connection can be made in either of the 2 following ways:
1. When using a socket with a grounding receptacle,
connect the ground wire to it and the screw for the ground
connection on the rear of the refrigerator (please find the
symbol) as shown in illustration .
2. When using a socket without a grounding receptacle,
connect the ground wire to the screw on the rear of the
refrigerator (please find the symbol), and then connect
the other end to the ground rod as shown in illustration .

Ground connections must not be made with the following
●
Gas pipes and water supply pipes (risk of electric shock or explosion)
●
Ground wires of telephone cords and lightning rods (risk of lighting strike)
4. Cool the refrigerator interior.
●
It may take approximately 4 hours to cool the interior.
●
It may take 24 hours or more to cool the interior and achieve equilibrium in the summer, etc.
●
Ice-making starts only after the interior has been cooled sufficiently.
●
Do not open/close the doors until the interior has been cooled sufficiently.
(Warm air flowing into the interior will block the cooling function.)

Notices
■
Do not place objects on the top of
the refrigerator.
It may become hot due to heat
generated by the compressor at the
top of the refrigerator.
If it is difficult to release heat, the
cooling capacity may be lowered.
Compressor
●
Immediately after the installation, the noise
becomes larger a little because the interior of the
refrigerator is not cooled yet and the compressor
or the fan is operated with high-speed rotation,
but it is not abnormal.
(Once the interior of the refrigerator is cooled, the
noise becomes smaller.)

(These are rough indications for when the ambient temperature is 32 °C, there is no food in the refrigerator and the interior
temperatures have stabilized. The temperatures may differ depending on the ambient temperature, food storage state, door
opening/closing and other usage conditions.)
