1. PRECAUTIONS (SAFETY WARNINGS)
● Upon electronic Control system repair/change, make sure the set unplugged.
Be ware of electric shock.
● Use rated electronic Control equipment.
Make sure to check out ModeL name, Rated voltage, Rated current, Operation Temp, etc.
● Upon repair, make sure that harnesses are not to be water-penetrated and are bundled
tight. Should not be detached by a certain amount of external force.
● Upon repair, completely remove dust or other foreign substances from housing, harness,
connector, etc.
To prevent fire by tracking, short, etc.
● Check out whether water has penetrated into the electronic Control system.
If there is any kind of trace, take necessary measures such as related component change,
insulation tapping, etc.
● After repair, check out the assembled state of parts.
It should be the same as the previous state.
● Check out the surrounding conditions.
Change the location, if the fridge is located at humid, wet places or the installed state is
unstable.
● If needed, ground the fridge.
Especially, if there is a possibility of electric leakage, ground is indispensable.
● Do not allow consumers to overload a certain outlet.
● Check out whether the power cord or the outlet is broken, squeezed, chopped off or heat-
deformed.
Repair or replace the defective power cord/outlet immediately.
Make sure the power cord is not punctuated or stomped down.
● Do not allow consumers to keep food unstable or place bottles in the Freezer Room.
● Do not allow consumers to repair the fridge for themselves.
● Do not allow consumers to keep things except for food.
Pharmaceutical, Chemical substances : These are not possible to be fine-Controlled with a
consumer fridge.
Flammable material (alcohol, benzene, ether, LPG, etc) : possibility of explosion.

Warning & Caution
Caution
Use the rated components on the
replacement.
● Check the correct model, rated voltage,
rated current, operating temperature and so on.
On repair, make sure that the wires such
as harness are bundled tightly.
● Bundle tightly wires in order not to be detached
by the external force and then not to be wetted.
Check if there is any trace indicating the
permeation of water.
● If there is that kind of trace, change
the related components or do the necessary treatment
such as taping using the
insulating tape.
After repair, check the assembled state of
components.
● It must be in the same assembled state
when compared with the state before disassembly.
On repair, remove completely dust or
other things of housing parts, harness
parts, and check parts.
● Cleaning may prevent the possible fire by tracking
or short.

3. DISASSEMBLY & REASSEMBLY
• Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and making repairs.
• Do not dissemble or repair the refrigerator by yourself.
- You run risk of causing a fire, malfunction and/or personal injury.
• Remove any foreign matter or dust from the power plug pins.
- Otherwise there is a risk of fire.
• Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.
• Do not plug several appliances into the same multiple power board.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual electrical which has a voltage rating that
matched the rating plate.
- This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits, which could cause
a fire hazard from overheated wires.
• Do not install the refrigerator in a damp place or place where it may come in contact with water.
- Deteriorated insulation of electrical parts may cause an electric shock or fire.
• The refrigerator must be grounded.
- You must ground the refrigerator to prevent any power leakages or electric shocks caused by current
leakage from the refrigerator.
• Do not put bottles or glass containers in the freezer.
- When the contents freeze, the glass may break and cause personal injury.
• Do not store volatile or flammable substances in the refrigerator.
- The storage of benzene, thinner, alcohol, ether, LP gas and other such products may cause explosions.
