Introduction
Important Safety Instruction
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons when using your product, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the
following. Read all instructions before using this
appliance.
1. When connecting the power

• Using several devices at one outlet
may cause fire.
• If unit is connected to an earth
leakage breaker it may trip resulting
in spoiled food.
Do not allow the power plug to face upward or to
be crushed at the back of the fridge-freezer.
If the cord is crushed behind the
refrigerator it may damage the cable
resulting in fire. An upward facing plug
may pull loose under the weight of the
cord resulting in electrical failure
causing fire or the fridge turning off and spoiling food.
WARNING

Damage or fire.
Service
Center
DO NOT use a water damaged unit until it has been
certified safe by a licensed
electrician or similarly qualified
person.
It may be the cause of an electric shock
or fire.
When gas is leaked, do not touch the fridge/freezer
or the outlet and ventilate the room immediately.
•
The explosion by spark may cause
fire or burn.
•
Because this fridge/freezer uses
natural gas (isobutene, R600a) as
the environment-friendly
refrigerant, even a small amount (80~90g) is
combustible. When the gas is leaked by the severe
damage during delivering, installing or using the
fridge/freezer, any spark may cause fire or burn.

11

Warning
This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane
refrigerant (R600a), natural gas with high
environmental compatibility, but it is also
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 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 1m2in 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.
