IMPORTANT WARNINGS
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use this appliance on a dedicated circuit; that is, an outlet that is the only
outlet on the circuit. Overloading a circuit causes low voltage, malfunction,
possible damage to the equipment, and poor cooling capacity. Check your local
electric code or consult a qualified electrician if you have questions.
POWER CORD ACCESSIBILITY
The refrigerator should be so positioned that the supply plug is accessible
for quick disconnection if an accident happens.
POWER CORD REPLACEMENT
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a
similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
ABOUT GROUNDING (EARTHING)
In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding (earthing) reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
In order to prevent possible electric shock, this appliance must be grounded.
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in an electric shock. Consult a
qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if you have doubts about whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
DO NOT MODIFY OR EXTEND THE POWER CORD LENGTH
Doing so will cause electric shock or fire.
APPLIANCE DISPOSAL
An empty refrigerator can be a dangerous attraction to children. Remove either
gaskets, latches, lids, or the entire door from your unused appliance, or take
some other action to make it harmless.
This appliance must be grounded (earthed).
DON’T WAIT! DO IT NOW!
Do not store inflammable materials, explosives, or chemicals in the
refrigerator.
Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable
propellant in this appliance.
WARNING
This appliance is not intended for use by people (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
REFRIGERANT DISPOSAL
This appliance contains fluid (refrigerant, lubricant) and is made of parts
and materials which are reusable and/or recyclable. All the important
materials should be sent to a waste collection center and can be reused after
rework (recycling). Contact your local waste management service for more
details. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are dangerous, even if they are
sitting for only a few days. When disposing of the refrigerator, 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.
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
SERVICE CALLS CAN OFTEN BE AVOIDED. IF YOU FEEL YOUR REFRIGERATOR IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY, CHECK THESE POSSIBLE CAUSES FIRST:
PROBLEM| POSSIBLE CAUSES|
---|---|---
THE REFRIGERATOR DOES NOT OPERATE| • Has a house fuse blown or circuit breaker
tripped?
• Has the power cord plug been removed or loosened from the electrical wall outlet?
REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURE TOO WARM| • Temperature control not set to the proper position.
• Appliance is placed close to the wall or heat source.
• Warm weather-frequent door openings.
• Door left open for a long time.
• a Large amount of food is kept in the refrigerator.
ABNORMAL NOISE(S)| • Refrigerator is installed in a weak or uneven place, or leveling screw needs adjusting.
• Unnecessary objects are placed in the back side of the refrigerator.
|
REFRIGERATOR HAS ODOR| • Foods with strong odors should be tightly covered or
wrapped.
• Interior needs cleaning.
DEW FORMS ON THE CABINET SURFACE| • Not unusual during periods of high humidity.
• Door may have been left ajar.
THE REFRIGERATOR IS NOT COOLING OR
HAS NO POWER
| • A fuse in your home may be blown or the circuit breaker tripped. Or the appliance is connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet, and the outlet’s circuit breaker has tripped.
– Check the main electrical box and replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. Do not increase fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit overload, have it corrected by a qualified electrician.
– Reset the circuit breaker on the GFCI. If the problem persists, contact an electrician.
EARTH/GROUNDING CONSTRUCTION (OPTIONAL)
A grounding/earth wire may be installed to prevent electric shock in case of
electricity leakage.
How to connect the earth wire:
- Connect the earth wire’s metal ring end to the earth screw on the back of the refrigerator.
- Peel off the cable sheath/insulation at the other end of the earth wire. Attach the peeled wire to a metal screw/nail and then drive it through the wall or ground.
Do not connect the earth wire to the following locations.
-
Gas pipe
It could produce sparks which lead to fire and explosion. -
Telephone earth wire and lightning rod
It is dangerous during lightning. -
Water pipe and water tap
The earth wire connection will not work when the middle of the water pipe is made of plastic. If it is connected to a metal water pipe, it could cause someone to be electrocuted.
When installing the product in a humid or wet location, you must install the earth wire. Ex)
- Unfloored or dirt-floored room (Room with dirt and no floor), concrete floor
- The location where it can get wet such as near the sink
- The location where water can leak or is humid such as the basement
- Other wet or humid location
Especially in locations that are frequently wet such as near a restaurant sink, you are obligated by the law to install a circuit breaker in addition to the earth wire. After consulting with your retailer or electrician, you must install an earth wire installation (Type 3 earth construction). Please note that such an installation could incur extra fees.
